Musical Muses #5 // Test my patience.

  Oh my. It has been two weeks since I last blogged, how rare of me. I can explain! This gap of time has consisted predominantly of gearing myself up for Year 11, which you may know I've started. So many of my hours have been dedicated to school; I feel suffocated, almost. (Hmm, I shan't kill the mood now. That's another story, for the bottom of this post.) Just being able to have this Friday to myself, typing near the comfort of a cool breeze, is bliss. 

OH, AND THANK YOU FOR 200 BLOGLOVIN READERS!!! I LOVE YOU ALL ♡

  A post collaboration is in the works, as well as some Valentine's Day plans I deem to be amazing. (Hint: galentines.) Gosh I'm so excited. In the meantime, here are my go-to tracks that have been keeping me sane. Or perhaps promoting the opposite. Whatever works for me, and I hope these are sweet sounds to the ears. Enjoy all this pre-Valentine's Day music!




  Amongst the new content I've been tackling in school, there comes an invincible one: Greek tragedy. That's right, you heard me. I'd been looking up explanation videos on Youtube and the first result had me bewildered, then jumping for joy. New music from The Wombats to correlate with my school curriculum? I'll take that any day, thank you. I adore it to death. It really does make studying  the genre of Greek tragedy that much more tolerable. Listen to it above! (Note, not for the faint-hearted.)



  Entering rant city! The school year thus far... It's looking like a self-concerned year - not to intend negative connotations upon first sight, as I'm more rather referring to keeping myself in check. Taking care of myself, managing my emotions, time, workload and health well. I am quite happy with myself for keeping up with the pace, though. It's been two whole weeks into Year 11 and I'm allocating my time to work and organisational endeavours. I'm mostly getting sleep (apart from disturbing dreams), awaking on time and paying adequate attention. I'm eating better and am back to the cleaner daily diet - consisting of fresh, whole foods will plenty of tea, cereal and fruits.

  Sadly, there are still sour things along the way to shake me up. Like feeling personally victimized by disrespectful men in public, or plainly reminiscing on the past. It's incredulous how everything and nothing is happening, all at the same time. I'm listless again. I knew this would happen. I'd hate for the entire year to go by in this manner. Yet at the end of the day I have pastel sunsets, brother-catchups, room decorating and triple j to get me smiling. Just thank goodness it's Friday.

  Here’s hoping I don’t implode.
