5) Write about a period of time in your life where things were not so good.
6) When was the last time you cried?
7) Upload a recent picture of you.
8) How do you feel today?
9) What’s the nicest thing anyone has ever said to you?
10) What’s the meanest thing anyone has ever said to you?
11) Write about the best day of your life.
12) Write about the worst day of your life.
13) What are your plans for the future? Far and near.
14) Post your favorite book, favorite movie, favorite band, and favorite food.
15) Write about something you worry about a lot.
16) Upload a picture of your room and talk about your room.
17) Bullet your day.
18) Post one confession/secret.
19) Write about your last birthday and how you plan to spend your upcoming birthday.
20) What did you eat today?
21) How has your life changed over the past year?
22) What made you smile the most today?
23) Describe what you spend most of your time on.
24) How was your week been?
25) Write a letter to someone you miss.
26) Write about something you once loved, but now despise.
27) Where is somewhere you would want to visit?
28) If you had three wishes, what would they be?

Don't Carry It All



I'm feeling very musically inspired lately. This is just an amazing song. It's Don't Carry It All by the Decemberists. It's such an uplifting song. I don't even know how else to describe it. It just makes me happy. I like songs that make me happy. In addition, the rest of their new album, The King is Dead, is also great. I'm partial as well to Rise to Me. But this is by far my favourite song off the new album. I wish I could marry this song. I know that's sort of a third-grade sentiment, but I love this song so very much. Anyway, y'all should listen to it.

Bliss



This is seriously the chocolate cake of music in my opinion. Ólafur Arnalds, the musician responsible for this magic, is absolutely wonderful. I had the distinct pleasure of seeing him in concert last night, which was kind of amazing. I'm in love. For some reason, and I can't quite figure out why, his music is really comforting and pleasant and I really wish I could listen to it all the time. (I also got his autograph!)

Anyway, enough with the merciless gushing. Just wanted to share it with you.
