I have two playlists on Spotify- one for working out and one for everything else. The songs on my workout playlist range in artists, from Alt-J to Wale, but they're songs that get me motivated, and help me push through to the end of a workout or run when the cup of coffee I drank before has stopped working (be careful though, because you can get dehydrated if you haven't been drinking water).

Even though spring in Connecticut is still feeling like winter, the weather has been dreary and wet, I'm optimistic it will slowly start warming up and point to sunnier days soon. I'm don't like running when the air hurts my face and I can't breathe, so I’ve been running inside on a dreadmill, erm treadmill.

This past Saturday I went on a six mile run around a lake that's close to my house, and it reminded me of the first time I ate chicken saag (I felt my taste buds opening up and couldn't stop smiling. I'm sorry, I love food).

I recently updated my workout playlist on Spotify and these are some of the songs that got me through my first run of spring.

Me So Bad- Tinashe w/ Ty Dolla $ign, French Montana

The Weekend (Funk Wav Remix)- SZA w/ Calvin Harris

Smoke Too Much- JOY.


Kamikaze- WALK THE MOON

Color Blind- Diplo w/ Lil Xan

Nothing (LCAW Remix)- Vérité

Watch Me- Jaden Smith

No Pain- DJDS w/ Khalid, Charlie Wilson

Sunburn- King Princess


Powerglide- Rae Sremmurd w/ Juicy J

One Track Mind- 30 Seconds to Mars w/ A$AP Rocky

Party on the West Coast- Matoma w/ Faith Evas, The Notorious B.I.G., Snoop Dogg

Baby I'm a Queen-Sofi Tukker

Being single can be great and awful at the same time. Yeah, it's awesome to have time to yourself to figure out who you are and make your own decisions. It would also be nice to have someone to go through life with, but it needs to be the right person. I haven't found that person yet and here's a few reasons why.

Taylor Swift's Eras Tour is What I Hope Heaven Feels Like

By: James McDonald

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.
