A vibey playlist to hopefully get us out of spring and into winter!
As per usual, a new month means a new playlist. I am pretty stoked about this one because it has a lot of songs that are new to me, and I think just overall has a really great and unique vibe! Hopefully you can find some musical inspiration with these 30 songs on my March playlist:
Listen to anything and everything on her EP, "This Is What It Feels Like",PLEASE.
This is such a beautiful and soothing cover.
Beirut has a super unique sound and is far too underrated.
Definitely listen to this song with headphones in, it will scratch your brain.
Needed a throwback in there!
Kind of a dope band name.
Had to end on a sweet note:)
I prefer to start each month with a new music mix, so here’s what’s on tap for February!
The crafting of this playlist went a little differently than normal because I listened to my January playlist so much that February was about to be the same thing! So this is made up of song recommendations from a friend, songs I liked the title of, and a few from previous playlists. Here they are:
Hits from the sixties until today for all your jamming purposes.
Here are 25 iconic songs from the past 50+ years.
If you haven't at least heard about this song I'm worried about you.
Some recent TikToks have helped this song gain some very well-deserved recognition.
This is such a hype song that never gets old.
OK, people in the 90s must have been thriving, because these are some of my favorite bops of all time.
My previous statement regarding the 90s is just as relevant when looking at some of the most iconic 80s songs.
This song just makes you feel like everything is going to be OK!
The nine-year-old version of myself really rocked out to The Beatles, and I am pleased to say that I have not lost that spark in my life.
Do not underestimate the value of a Zoom date.
It seems like people have forgotten some big news during this time in history, so let me remind everyone: we are still facing a pandemic.
Depending on where you live, that means there are a different set of restrictions for you. In Taiwan, people are safely able to go to social gatherings, bars, and movie theaters without risking their health. In Germany, Oktoberfest and the Berlin Marathon have been canceled, but schools are reopening.
Do not be fooled by the diminished restrictions in the United States, though. As we've seen with the reopening of colleges and universities, the country is still struggling to handle COVID-19. With a significant percentage of the population believing in conspiracy theories surrounding the virus, we are most likely going to continue facing a pandemic into 2021.
That does not mean you have to be alone, though. It is possible to meet new people amidst this chaos, and perhaps even find a romantic partner. It takes some work, but you can develop a relationship during this time with effort on both sides to stay socially distant and, who knows, maybe find love!
You can watch videos together by sharing your screen, have a virtual lunch date, or just use the opportunity to complain about how much you hate Zoom. If you have too much Zoom fatigue at this point, you can always use a different platform like FaceTime or Google Hangouts.
Take advantage of Netflix Party, Hulu Watch Party, or the several other platforms you two can use to watch your favorite movie or start a new television show. "Netflix and chill" is still possible!
There are plenty of fun ways to spend time together while staying safe. As long as you have a blanket that is over six feet long, you and your partner could have a picnic during the day and stargaze at night.
Find a nice hiking trail or bike path where you guys can maintain your distance. Just remember to keep your masks on!
Making each other a playlist of your favorite songs won't put either of you at risk, and it will be a great way to plan potential concerts you can go to together in the safer future.
This can be virtual or outdoors depending on what kind of game you're playing. Or, you can always just resort to iMessage games.
Dating right now is inevitably going to be awkward and strange. If you and your significant other are committed to trying, though, you can maintain a safe and fulfilling relationship. Plus, if you two can get through a world crisis, your partnership can probably withstand anything.
Dating right now is complicated, but it is possible. Wash your hands, wear your mask, and hang in there.

This was supposed to be the finale...
If you've been following my account for the last couple of months you know that one of my biggest struggles in life has been finding the perfect headphones. My main goal this year has been to purchase AirPods so I would never have to worry about janky headphones and tangled wires ever again. As Apple's standard headphones are designed to fail after an extended amount of use, I figured AirPods were the solution. They were lower in price than the wireless beats headphones and I could get my name engraved on the case. On top of that, I don't have to worry about trying to hide the wire underneath my shirt as I walk around campus. So I finally managed to get enough funds to purchase some new Apple AirPods. Was it worth it? As much as I want to say yes, they are not.
Let me explain. First of all, I ordered these AirPods online on Apple's custom store app. I got the standard $160 AirPods and had the option to get a free laser engraving on the case. So I did all the steps, bought the AirPods and engraved my name on it. The order was supposed to come in on Tuesday but it came in a couple of days early on a Friday. I drive all the way to Crocker Park and go to that Apple Store. The transaction was quick and simple and they gave me my AirPods. I walk back to my car and open up the box only to discover my name is not engraved on the box. Instead, it was someone's username handle. Now I am annoyed. After having a bad week, I was hoping these AirPods would brighten my mood. So I walk back and explain my situation to the Apple employees and they were confused as well. Apparently, someone at their warehouse slapped my serial number on someone else's box. Such an odd occurrence that I would never expect from Apple. They checked and my AirPods were not back there in any of the boxes. The employees let me return the AirPods and gave me two options. Either get a standard pack of AirPods at that very moment or call a 1-800 number and explained the situation to them. If I call a 1-800 number there is no guarantee my AirPods were to be found/they would give me new ones. At this point, I've been so done with this week that I could not care less about getting the engraving. So I got these AirPods and synced them up to my phone.

I have been using them for the last five days on and off. When they DO work- it's great. I walked into work today listening to "Be Prepared" from the new "Lion King (2019)" movie. But sometimes the headphones have difficulties syncing up to the phone. Like just now, for instance, I tried syncing them up to my phone to listen to music while I typed this, but instead of connecting both AirPods it's only connecting the one. I don't know if it's because I use the YouTube Music App and the headphones are not registered to connect to that? Which makes no sense because these headphones should be on the latest Bluetooth connection. I use the YouTube Music App every day. It's the best app for music and I recently discovered I can create Siri shortcuts to search for songs, which is a huge plus.
As I said, when the headphones work, they work well. I can use my Apple Watch to pause, play, and skip songs. Which is good because the double taps are finicky. I resynced them to do different tap controls. These headphones are also apparently supposed to read my texts, but I have yet to experience that.
To wrap this up, this was supposed to be the grand finale article about my Journey to getting AirPods. I plan to test these out more and figure out if I just got a bad pair of headphones or if Airpods aren't all their cracked up to be after all. Stay tuned for my honest review of these AirPods later on.
