My January Playlist!


I feel like I've been waiting FOREVER to write this post!  This month has been fast but slow all at the same time.  I've barely posted but I finally have my schedule all figured out.  That means you'll be seeing a lot more posts from me.  I didn't have a playlist last month because it was all Christmas music.  That is why I'm excited to share this with you!  I'm OBSESSED with every song and it's pretty much all I've listened to.  It's the perfect mixture of songs.  What songs are you loving?


1. I Don't Wanna Live Forever by ZAYN and Taylor Swift
Favorite lyric: I'm sittin' eyes wide open and I got one thing stuck in my mind Wondering if I dodged a bullet or just lost the love of my life Baby, baby, I feel crazy Up all night, all night and every day I gave you something, but you gave me nothing What is happening to me?

2. Do It Again by Pia Mia
Favorite lyric: It was nice to, nice to know ya, let's do it again How we did it on a one night stand Boy, I wanna be more than a friend to ya Nice to, nice to know ya, let's do it again How we did it on a one night stand Boy, I wanna be more than a friend to ya Let's do it again

3. Love Like We Used To by Captain Cuts feat. Nateur
Favorite lyric: I ain't afraid to call you I'll pick you up at nine Meet your daddy and your mama In my suit and tie I'll play you something old school Make it last all night Something that reminds us Of a different time So why don't me and you Love like we used to? So why don't me and you Love like we used to?

4. Shape Of You by Ed Sheeran
Favorite lyric: I'm in love with the shape of you We push and pull like a magnet do Although my heart is falling too I'm in love with your body And last night you were in my room And now my bed sheets smell like you Every day discovering something brand new I'm in love with your body Oh I oh I oh I oh I I'm in love with your body Oh I oh I oh I oh I I'm in love with your body Oh I oh I oh I oh I I'm in love with your body Every day discovering something brand new I'm in love with the shape of you

5. Make Me (Cry) by Noah Cyrus feat. Labrinth
Favorite lyric: Gave you up 'bout 21 times Felt those lips, tell me 21 lies, yeah You'll be the death of me Sage advice Love-lovin' you could make Jesus cry When I hear you're sayin' "Darling, Your kiss is like an antidote." I'm fightin' like I'm Ali, But you got me on the ropes

6. First by Niki and Gabi
Favorite lyric: Everything he's done to you Everything he feels with you Everything he has with you
He had with me first, first


7. Castle On The Hill by Ed Sheeran
Favorite lyric: I found my heart and broke it here Made friends and lost them through the years And I've not seen the roaring fields in so long, I know I've grown And I can't wait to go home I'm on my way Driving at 90 down those country lanes Singing to "Tiny Dancer" And I miss the way You make me feel, And it's real We watched the sunset over the castle on the hill

8. Touch by Little Mix
Favorite lyric: Just a touch of your love is enough To knock me off of my feet all week Just a touch of your lo-ove Just a touch of your lo-ove Just a touch of your love is enough To take control of my whole body Just a touch of your lo-ove Just a touch of your lo-ove

9. Love On The Brain by Rihanna
Favorite lyric: Must be love on the brain That's got me feeling this way It beats me black and blue but it f**** me so good And I can't get enough Must be love on the brain, yeah And it keeps cursing my name, cursing my name No matter what I do I'm no good without you And I can't get enough Must be love on the brain

10. Just Got Paid by NSYNC
Favorite lyric: Yo some people say my solo is impossible But when I get up on the mic, yo, I'm unstoppable And it's probable when ya hear our voices laid down You'll be boppin' your head to this ill tight sound Now I know you thought you had me played (played) check is in the mail I got it made (made) And if you'll notice my smile is like Kool-Aid Cuz I just (just) got (got) paid (paid) uh

My 2017 Goals



Happy 2017 everybody!!!!!!  I'm honestly really excited for the new year because 2016 sucked.  I had THE worst year and I'm not exaggerating.  I was in the hospital, broke my knee, and had tooth surgery.  Those are just the highlights.  For the last few years I set goals for the new year.  I didn't really do so well last year but I'm going to try harder.  If you want to see what my 2016 goals were click here.  What are your goals?

Read 12 books: One book a month shouldn't be too hard since I joined a blogger book club.  You can join too if you would like.

Blog 3-5 times a day: I want to really share more with you guys.  If you have any ideas then let me know.

Worry less: I have bad anxiety so I really want to work on that this year.

Watch more movies: I didn't really watch many movies because I was so sick.  I love movies!

Be more social: I am a pretty shy person so I want to get out more and socialize.

Work with more brands:  Now that I redid my blog I hope more opportunities will come my way.
