who is listening to idm
Me, though it's not the meat of my musical diet, like many people here.
who is posting here
I have quite a lot of posts, and it is directly proportional to my Loser Level.
are (were you) you a good student at school? do you have good marks or not ? problems at school ? studying ?
I took a year off school, might be going back in September, albeit to a different place, to study different thigns. Most likely, something computer or technology related. My average during my last year at UCCB was somewhere in the high 30s/early 40's,, and I skipped roughly 60 per cent of my classes. I was not a model student, and I have a low chance of being a Valedictorian.

I post here.
I rarely listen to IDM anymore as it really doesnt have the magic it once used to. I do often check out artists on this board though.
I did ok in school at anything i did which wasnt much because i chose to drink and smoke pot before/during and after school which resulted me in going to alternative school which is where i got my shit together. I later went to go to school for Heating and Air which i passed.
I still drink loads. I quit pot and am seeking an HVAC job

my marks are either 90s or failing, with very little exceptions. i do well when i'm working, but i (also) tend to get horrible panic attacks and just lose all ability to cope.
i can't answer the favorite music question regarding idm, because there's just too many, but for non-idm music:
modest mouse, built to spill, radiohead, depeche mode, elliott smith, the smiths. i dunno.
personally, i think you ought've first started a thread regarding things that people think are worth asking/testing for. second, you don't get a really honest representation, because it's typically less appealing for people to confess they totally suck at school. the poll function would work, as it provides anonymity.

hm... that's kinda what i thought...
people who listen to idm are mostly good at school, have good marks.
i think that the few people who told about bad marks are just lazy - but average inteligent too...
now my question is - why do you listen to idm and the most important question - how did you get into idm....
also - why people inteligent and better at school listen to this ?

i don't want to say that idm is listened only by "inteligent" people... just curious...

- are (were you) you a good student at school ?: pretty much. in highschool I kind of didnt care, but still worked enough to get decent grades (C's-A's) In college, Im a much better student, because I care about my studies.
-do you have good marks or not ? problems at school ?studying ?: for the most part. All my classes related to my major, ive gotten A's in. Actually dont think ive gotten less then an A for major related classes.... other classes, As and Bs, except I failed history of western civ 1 this semester. Its because I didnt turn in the 5 required essays (stupid piece of shit assignment, couldnt be arsed). But I dont care, I got As in all my other classes. Ive gotten an award in my major as well.

1: I was good at school for the majority of it.
2: I had really good marks but in final year i kinda didnt do as well as i could have, i just lost interest in things and couldnt find motivation etc. I had a few bully problems at school but nothing serious, and i think every kid has those. Studying was fine until i lost interest in final year and it continued into uni. Now if it doesnt interest me I find it really hard to study or do work for the subject.
3: aphex twin, squarepusher, venetian snares. ( at the moment )
