You wouldn't know it by how pasty-white my skin is,
but it's summertime. I haven't been out much. Even if I did go out, it would take a long time for me to show any signs of a tan. Am I bitter about that? A little. However, I have nobody to blame but myself unless you want to get technical and blame my father's ancestors for this pale and stubborn Polish skin I have inherited.
Regardless of whose fault this is, the fact remains that I am still on the computer rather than soaking up any sun. So, in order to atone for this I am just going to make a playlist. I will burn this playlist and play it in my car as I make the 4.5 hour journey back to my parents' house this week to see my brother graduate from high school. While I am there I intend to go to the beach, enjoy my free time, and make up for spending all of May staying indoors. I cannot be more excited about it, so this playlist is a product of my excitement.
1) Blister In the Sun- Violent Femmes
2) Spotlight- Gucci Mane feat. Usher
3) Water- Brad Paisley (This can also be interchanged with "Beat this Summer", but I like Water better)
4) At the Beach- the Avett Brothers
5) Never Let You Go- Third Eye Blind
6) Long Hot Summer- Keith Urban
7) Sweetness- Jimmy Eat World
8) Summer of '98- Secret Handshake

As Previously Mentioned,
My brother of 18 years is graduating high school this week. I cannot believe it's been 2 years since I moved out. It's weird to think that I haven't been able to see him every day, or even every few months. I'm tremendously proud of him. So, in honor of Greg and his accomplishments, I have a picture of us and a song that relates to him in many ways.
Happy June, Everybody.
