Refreshed and Ready

Well, here we are, slowly sliding home into the month of February. I’ve been back in Alaska for  close to a week now, and I almost can’t describe the amount of joy that the California sunshine brought to me. Normally at this time of year, I feel like a slug. I say “f*** it” to everyone and everything and turn into a bum. But this year, I feel the opposite. My sleep schedule has changed; I no longer have to set 4 different alarms to get up in the morning. I’ve been waking up promptly at 7am.  I find myself to be showing up early to classes and work, and being excited to study and do homework. I’m choosing to go with it… Don’t wanna freak myself out.

I have so much music to share with you all! I’m very excited. I practically have an entire playlist of music I either discovered or rediscovered during my vacation, and that’s all thanks to my uncle, who listens to some of the whitest music I’ve ever heard. HOWEVER… It somehow fit quite well into the everyday flow of things while I sat under the palm trees, peeled fresh oranges, and chatted with elderly family friends. The music I’m about to post is quite different than what I usually listen to, but I found peace and understanding in these songs, so maybe, you will too.

Hopefully, you haven’t given up on me yet. I’ve still got more music to give you!

This is just about everything I’ve recently acquired and am currently listening to. There are a lot of really fun songs to nod your head to, and some slower songs to chill to (most of these can be found at Camelbackmusic.com). Have at it.
