I'm ready for you, Summer!

I am honestly so stoked for summer that I cannot make a decent introduction about the playlist I'm about to put here. There's only a week to go then I'm free (albeit temporarily) from my academic and organization works. I can't wait to fill my free days with books, music, and photography! I think it's time for Ianne (my lomo cam) to come out again and let everyone look at how she sees the world. I plan to catch up with my reads too. Hee. If possible, I'd like to have a mini-adventure to celebrate the cheery atmosphere. Maybe a trip to Vigan or a day in BHS, yes?

Anyway (before I ramble again), here is this year's mix! Some are mainstream, some are not.

Brighter Than the Sun - Colbie Caillat
Summer Paradise - Simple Plan
Falling in Love in a Coffee Shop - Landon Pigg
They Lead Me to You - Joshua Radin
Thinking About You - David Choi
We Could Happen - AJ Rafael
All About Us - He is We ft. Owl City
Kiss Me Slowly - Parachute
Downtown - Lady Antebellum
22 - Taylor Swift (Not a Swift fan, but this song is just perfect for that summer mood!)
Locked Out of Heaven - Bruno Mars
Kiss You - One Direction (Same notice as Swift)
Still Into You - Paramore
Only You - Train
Be Your Everything - Boys Like Girls

On Dying

I have always figured that I will die young ever since I was in 5th grade. I did not choose to foresee my life that way but honestly, I cannot dream beyond the years. I cannot see myself growing old with a future husband, taking care of the kids, and having a successful career. My eyes only look at dreams and fantasy, not reality.

As my age increases, I feel like I'm walking closer towards death...and a life where there is no more pain and sorrow. I...am not afraid of dying. I am just so scared not living my life meaningfully. I am scared of leaving my loved ones. I am scared of not leaving even just a tiny mark in this world. Will they remember me? Will I remain in their hearts?

Dear readers, I don't have a death wish, okay? :) I just want you to know that while there are men who are like Voldemort, there are men who accept that every line, even the silver ones, has an end.

So while I am still alive and kicking, I resolve to wash away the negative emotions as quickly as possible and focus on the positive ones. Life is too short for one to resent, to get angry, to be sad, and not to love.
