Music holds a special place in my heart. I am a sucker for making playlists. When I got Spotify premium it was like my world had erupted. I not only found a better way to procrastinate but I also found music that helps soothe my soul. I literally have over 20+ playlists and will continue to make them!

Summer is the worst and best time for me when it comes to playlists, I have so many for all occasions. My favorite one is my Late Night Drives playlist.
