A life in unfinished takes

I kept
starting
over.

Music came first. The rest didn't happen in a straight line.

this out.

Listening → making → getting lost → trying againScroll to turn the sleeve ↓
Side A / 01 / before everything elseit started with a pair of ears.

Before I made anything,
I listened.

As far back as I can remember exploring the world, I was addicted to music. These are some of the playlists I keep on Spotify.

02 / from listening to making

Then I made
my own noise.

Listening turned into making music. I tried doing it for real.

It flopped.

An attempt / music

My original music

Original tracks and project files to come. No pretend play button.

03 / a different kind of making

Maybe
websites?

After that, I got into making websites.

Those flopped too.

An attempt / the web

Old sites, screenshots and the names of the projects will go here.

A parallel track / writinganother unfinished thread.

And all
the unfinished
pages.

I got addicted to writing too. Stories, novels, films, even anime stories. A lot of them are still unfinished.

This belongs alongside the rest. The exact order can come later.

STORY / UNFINISHED

A story
without an ending.Yet.

Real titles and pages from my stories will go here.

Actual drafts to be added.don't throw this away.

04 / the sensible thing

So I focused
on my studies.

I got into a renowned university. I thought it was time to focus on that.

But studying wore me out.

[University name]

All these talents.
No idea where I was going.

05 / a personal part

Then I fell
in love.

And life got harder around that time.

Some parts of a story can stay between the lines.

Side B / 06 / the biggest risk

I took
a break.

Taking a break from university was the biggest risk I'd taken in my life.

the record didn't end here. ↘

07 / another change of direction

A business.
But not really
mine.

I started a business. After a while, I realised it didn't feel like my own thing. So I left.

the next thought

Then I'll
build my own.

08 / here's the strange partyes, both can be true.

Nearly a dropout.
Opening an academy.

I was on the verge of dropping out of university, and I started my own academy.

I wanted people to get actual learning. Something they could use to build a future and do something with.

I've started other businesses along the way too. This is where I am so far.

So far.

I'm Sajid Hasan.
This is the record I'm still making.

Back to the first track
Eight detours: listening, making music, websites, university, love, a break, business and an academy. An unfinished writing thread runs alongside them.
