April, for me, has so far been the most hectic month of the year. With more homework & tests than I could have imagined, taking on extra-curricular activities, and having weekly volunteer commitments, where do I find time to relax? The answer is: music, reading, and naps. I’ve found that putting those 3 together gives me solace amidst my busy schedule. While they’re not the most exciting things in the world, they sure have the potential to be! So when you’re feeling like a zombie on Monday mornings, ready to take on the world on Friday nights or somewhere in between on Sunday afternoons, here are some tunes to get you by:
• I Bet My Life by Imagine Dragons
“Please believe them when they say that it’s left for yesterday.”
• Believe by Mumford and Sons
(Mumford and Sons will be coming to Calgary on Wednesday, August 12th! Other tour dates here.)
“So open up my eyes, tell me I’m alive.”
• Black Flies by Ben Howard
