I was listening to Thank Me Later the other day and man it was insane how I pretty much blocked summer of 2010 out. I was so free and just out there. It’s funny how when you’re a teenager nothing matters and you just do shit without any hesitation or thought. I love how music can take you places. Shoutout teenage Los you was a true dumb ass but you had fun.
the entirety of music on my itunes is 14/15 year olds me music taste. some bangers some cringe. but so freeing to listen to while watching a sunset driving home from a 9 to 5
freshman year was hot off the coat tails of my emo/scene years. somehow transitioned from that to mostly bachata and reggaeton. lots of joey bada$$ / pro era new york rap as well. and i loved lana del rey. sophomore year was a blur i couldn’t tell you. probably the same with a bit more rap. loved me some lorde tho. i think i also stumbled upon genesis by grimes around this time. junior year i discovered fka twigs and it changed me. it was a lot of her and childish gambino. anime soundtracks and j-rock too. lots of nujabes bc i had just watched samurai champloo. ultraviolence came out that year. it was crazy. senior year was a lot. i got back into kpop + k r&b for a bit (had a brief stint in middle school). i was really into mac demarco and loved kali uchis down. i also discovered kilo kish this year. i graduated in the infancy of the flower boy peach sunflower era so that should inform you on what my tastes were morphing into. i also have awful memory in general but looking back makes me realize i truly tell time through music. that’s the bulk of what i can remember from my teen years.
Don’t be that person. Mf got a banana and a Celsius, something is going down and they need to make a quick exit. You got mad vegetables anyway, let the cashier breathe a little before they struggle to remember how to ring up them green onions you copping.
Nothing better than giving someone a little squeeze to show them you got them. It’s always great when someone can sense that you need it and add a little something to the hug. Don’t settle for a dap. Get in there.
I have no context at all but I love it. Feels like I’m missing out but that’s alright it’s just good to hear somebody having a big ol belly laugh and enjoying this shit while we’re breathing.
