the graceful savage

Wow, I haven't posted since September! I guess that's what college does to you though. I've been enjoying UCLA so much, and it feels like each week just flies by (but honestly that could just be attributed to the quarter system). I had three busy weeks of two midterms and a presentation so I disappeared from the face of the earth to prepare for them— at least that's what it felt like. ;) Can I just say that UCLA's food is waaaay too delicious for my own good? I'm fearing the freshman fifteen, and I've already gained three pounds so I'm a fifth of the way there. Thankfully I just went to the gym for the first time in my time here and I hope turn that into a habit. *fingers crossed* Anyways, I have new music for you! These are some of my favorites for when I need to take a moment to chill after studying and whatnot. And I promise I have more posts coming up soon; I just need to find my groove here. I hope to have another post up before Thanksgivi...

Summer is sadly coming to a close, and many people are starting to head back to school. Luckily, I've still got another four weeks of relaxation (thanks for starting in September, UCLA!). During the summer I tend to favor music that befits the season. Unless, of course, it's the middle of July, which is when I begin wishing it were Christmastime and play lots of Christmas music. It happens every year and I'm not entirely certain why that is. Maybe I just want presents, hah! Don't worry though, I won't force you to listen to Christmas music while you're at the beach like I just might. :) Here is some of my favorite music this summer! I hope you enjoy these songs as much as I have, and if you're returning to school, I hope it brings you some level of calm. 1. Goldroom- Fifteen feat. Chela (Oxford Remix) I've been listening to this song since I was fourteen, and I still haven't tired of it. 2. Khai- Alive 3. The Knocks- Class...

Some of you may know that I love music if you’ve read all about me . Because I was a member of my high school’s dance department, I was frequently exposed to new music. Dancers really do have a great taste in music (and they should, or they wouldn’t have much to dance to other than the same old top 40 songs, which, by the way, my dance teacher forbade), and they frequently find your favorite tunes before you do. This was definitely one of the perks of being a dancer. Therefore, I thought it would be fun to share a few of my current favorite songs. I might make this a regular thing as I’m always on the lookout for new songs, and honestly I think there’s nothing better than sharing music because music is.. just amazing and can be so relatable. In addition, I feel that Saturday is the perfect day for these posts; it's the one day of the week that I truly enjoy as it is my most chill day. Plus I always listen to music as I put makeup on before going out. Here we go! ...
