What I'm Listening To, Volume 2
I don't really have a good theme for this month's mix/playlist. Sure I could do "spring" but it probably would have ended up with a similar feel anyway (and I've done Spring Break). So I've just put together a playlist of stuff I'm really into lately. It's mostly new music (songs or tracks from recently released albums) with a variety of genres.
My Criterion Collection Selections
Wow that's quite a few "tion" words, isn't it? The Criterion Collection is one of my favorite things to ever exist. The Criterion Collection collects the most popular films and packages them with tons of exclusive extras for film lovers to enjoy. They are mastered for the greatest watching quality and new additions are made monthly. The collection has evolved as technology has changed and is currently available for streaming on Filmstruck. There is an expansive variety of directors, countries, and films to choose from.
Spring Beauty Must-Haves
Warmer temperatures means a change in my beauty must-haves. Really anything that keeps me from melting is entirely welcome. A must have in my book is anything that enables survival but keeps me feeling confident.
Documentaries Worth Watching
It's finally the weekend and time to relax by doing a whole lot of nothing. I usually spend time finding random documentaries on Netflix (there's quite a few interesting ones about mysteries and cults if you like that kind of thing). I think documentaries are interesting because they give us a glimpse into worlds we may not see otherwise. As someone who loves learning I'll watch a documentary on pretty much anything.
So I Need to Buy....Flats
A few months back my favorite ballet flats were ruined by a random rainstorm. Okay maybe it wasn't actually random, but more like me ignoring the chance of rain and wearing them anyway. In my defense, saying it's going to rain here is just playing a game of Press Your Luck. 75% of the time it NEVER happens or is a drizzle.
What I Want To Eat
Sharing what I usually buy at the grocery store and realizing how often I do eat like a bird got me thinking about cooking meals. I do love to cook, but the last recipe I really put a ton of effort into making went terribly so I've felt a bit uninspired. Not to mention I've accidentally cut my fingers on every knife and vegetable peeler I touch recently. Uninspired, accident prone, and terrible seem to be the adjectives that best define me lately.
