♪♫Music tuned in, world tuned out.♥

We all have those songs that can lift us out of our most frustrated moods with just a few vocal lines or their nifty beats. My list is quite random and is ever changing. In my iTunes, it is simply labeled AWESOME PLAYLIST.


Among these songs are the following:
(Click on the name of the artist and it will take you to the video!)

  • These songs just get me PUMPED!!! No matter what mood I am in, these songs make me just want to DO something.
  • All three of these songs, though they have very different styles, are songs that just make me want to keep going no matter how difficult life gets. They rekindle the determination that powers my success. 
  • These songs put me in a deep and thoughtful mood for some reason and since I love being deep and thoughtful, these songs make me happy.
  • All of these are just quirky. I am quite quirky. Therefore me and these songs get along quite splendidly. They either put me in a very cheery mood or a very chill mood.

EPIC UNICORN

Let's Talk Controversy!

When it comes to the drinking age, a lot of people believe it should be lowered. I honestly do not have an opinion on the matter. I have the ability to see two sides to every debate and I just can't seem to pick one.

I WANNA PARTY HEARTY NOW!!! LOWER THE AGE!!!
 

So... I guess I can see why someone might want to lower the drinking age. Many argue that if you can go to war at the age of seventeen then you should be able to down a few. If young adults are not taught at a young age to drink in moderation, they will binge and this leads to DEATH and such... Some say that is the drinking age is lowered, it may become less appealing since it is no longer forbidden, because of course, we all want what we cannot have. Also, the current drinking age prevents young adults from drinking in bars and promotes drinking in unsupervised areas, where drinking is more dangerous and drinking too much is so much easier to do.

WHAT?! DRINKING?! WHAT HAS THE WORLD COME TO?!?!?!


*Gasp* So many tragic accidents have been caused by drunk driving. One can argue that not everyone who drinks goes off and drives irresponsibly, but it happens. The physical changes that teens undergo are not compatible with the effects of alcohol. It can cause them to do things they they would never do if not intoxicated. Our brains are not fully developed until around the age of 21. The younger a person starts drinking, the more likely they are to become an alcoholic.

As you can see, both sides have valid arguments. I myself have no interest in drinking and don't really care one way or the other...
