A lot of feelings.

Things have been chaotic lately. I have a lot that's going on and it's racking my brain a lot more than usual. I am not ready to face the world this evening. I need to unwind and feel melancholy. My body doesn't know how to handle off my feelings right now.

Goodnight.

May your Monday evening be musical. (Sorry for the late night post slack)

It's about to get busy.

This upcoming week is going to be a chaotic one. I just got my work schedule for next week and it's a doozy. Let me give you the low down on what my week is going to look like work wise.

Monday | 11:15AM-5:00PM

Tuesday | 12:00PM-4:30PM

Wednesday | 7:30AM-8:15AM / 2:30PM-4:30PM / 5:30PM-10:00PM

Thursday | 12:00PM-4:30PM / 5:30PM-10:00PM

Friday | 10:30AM-2:30PM

Saturday | 5:15PM-11:00PM

Sunday | Off

I don't know how I am able to function after Wednesdays. I am itching for next Sunday already.

But until then, I'm just going to plan this Sunday (seeing that it was my only day off this week).

>>Clean my room

>>Clean out my closet and sell some clothes

>>Wash my car

>>Prep some posts for this week

>>Drink some coffee

>>Make myself food instead of going out and buying some

>>Hang out with Alyssa

Also, shout out to my awesome sister for getting me this perfect mug. She's quite the enabler. I can't stop the mug addiction.

Here's some tunes to help you slip into a relaxed state.

I hope you all have a nice, relaxing Sunday.

Welcome Spring

Along with the seasons changing, I feel like a lot of things in my life are changing with it. I also think it is time to do some spring cleaning. I want to set some goals for myself and have them accomplished by the end of the summer. 

>>Stop drinking soda (I have been doing well with it, but I caved and had Dr Pepper yesterday)

>>Lose fifteen pounds (or more)

>>Plant something and keep it alive

>>Get a full time job

>>Have a garage sale

>>Save some money each paycheck to treat myself to something nice
>>Run a mile in under eight minutes (My fastest mile time was 7:12)

I'm sure I'll have more to add to the list later, but right now, that's all I got.
Here are some songs that I cannot stop listening to lately:



I hope you are all enjoying your first week of Spring!

Stuck in My Head Saturday

These following songs and/or artists have been on repeat for the past week (or maybe even longer).

LORD HURON - The Man Who Lives Forever (x)

This song has been a favorite of mine since I first heard the album (Lonesome Dreams). It's one of my most played songs and it just makes me feel really happy when I hear it.

HALF MOON RUN - Call Me in the Afternoon (x)

I heard this song a few days ago. Another fellow blogger, Tegan from Treasures and Travels, posted about how she couldn't listening to them this week. I'm right there with you, girl.

THE NEIGHBOURHOOD - Sweater Weather (x)

I heard this song a few months ago. It was love at first listen. It's finally getting some radio play. I hope everyone falls in love with this band like I did.

MOUNTAIN MAN - Soft Skin (x)

Thank you, Mucho Mucho Bueno Bueno, for introducing me to this wonderful band. I tip my hat to you.

SWEDISH HOUSE MAFIA FEAT. JOHN MARTIN - Don't You Worry Child (x)

I scream every time this song comes on in the car. I'm like a thirteen year old when she hears One Direction. Pathetic, I know.

BIG DEAL - Swoon (x)

This song gives me all the feelings. The album is incredible as well. Probably my favorite by them.

PHOENIX - Entertainment (x)

I've been a fan of Phoenix for a years now and their new song does not disappoint. Amazing.

Give them a listen! Which one was your favorite?
Thanks for reading! Happy Sunday xoxo

Can we just talk about:

I first heard Lykke Li two summers ago while driving in my car with a friend of mine. The radio was playing "Get Some" and I immediately fell in love. I rushed home and looked up the lyrics and there she was. Many of my nights since my discovery have been spent listening to her soothing voice. She has a song that can fit any mood I'm in. Let's be honest though, I'm always in the mood for some Lykke.

Top 5 Favorite Tracks:

1. Love Out Of Lust (Wounded Rhymes)

2. Little Bit (Youth Novels)

3. I'm Good, I'm Gone (Youth Novels)

4. I Follow Rivers (Wounded Rhymes)

5. Tonight (Youth Novels)

Fun Fact!

She has lived in Sweden, Portugal, Nepal, Morocco, and India. What a worldly lady!

^ Love Out Of Lust (Favorite Lyrics) ^

Completely stunning.

^ Favorite live performance from her. It's amazing. (The Black Cab Sessions) ^

If you haven't heard of her before, give her a listen. She is extremely talented and adorable.

I'm still in the process of trying to plan what exactly this blog is going to be for me. I have committed to Melodic Mondays though. I think everyone needs a set of new tunes to listen to every so often. I hope your Monday isn't too strenuous. Xoxo
