Happy Sunday, folks! Taking this week's song back a year ago to Flo Rida and 99 Percent's collab "Cake." Simple, but catchy in its structure, it's an easy-going dance song to enjoy yourself while at the club or at a house party. https://youtu.be/rmuudxyM0t4 Admittedly, I shared this song in one of my posts earlier this …

Hello, bloggers! It's been ages since the last "Sunday Slow Jam" (back in November-- wow!), but now it's back! This week, I'm sharing with you my current music obsession, which is "Million Eyes" by Loïc Nottet, a Belgian singer and dancer who had won the Belgium The Voice in 2014. https://youtu.be/68EnJITH-5Q Beginning with soft, echoing …

Liking concerts doesn't necessarily equate to going insane and getting turned up or anything like that. …
Story-time, folks: So I went out on Friday night. To a college party. Yeeeaaahhh... If you know me personally, you will know that I'm not a huge party person. Granted, I've been to a few socials and hang-outs over the years, but definitely not as many compared to the "general" population of students out there. …
