5 Songs I've been loving lately

   Hey guys!
   Today I want to talk about five songs I've been obsessing over lately. These are completely random songs but, I don't know if it's because of the shitty weather outside or the season itself, most of them have a sad/melancholic tone to them.

   Hey guys!
   A few weeks back I shot a few videos with my bestie and today I finally managed to upload one of them, after having to edit it yesterday for like 2.5 hours. Anyways. This video, one of the three we filmed, is the TAG we came up with ourselves (whoop whoop for creativity) which involves music and books. A great combination don't you think?
   Basically we took ten different songs from different genres (quite randomly) and mixed them together with boo...

December Wrap Up

   Hey guys!
   December is gone and I must admit it was yet another not very reading heavy month for me. I don't even understand why.
