It has been a while since I've done one of these. When I used to blog more consistently, I always thought it was necessary to share to some of my currents. As you can probably tell, I haven't been present on the blog consistently. But, lately, I feel like there is a spark that ignited. Hopefully, this will fuel me fully.

READING... the bible (I might explain this more later on)
PLAYING... Simpsons Tapped Out! And, yes, I have been playing this game on my phone for years.

I really didn't take the time to stop by on my blog and write about what's been going on in my life. So, I thought it would be to finally check in and let you know what I've been currently up to.

But, to be honest, I wrote this post ahead of time. So, as you are reading this, some answers may seem odd, for instance like how I said I'm getting ready for bed even though this is being posted in the morning...

Songs I'm Currently Listening To

Songs I'm Currently Listening To


Can we talk about music for a second? I know I don't blog and share a lot of my favourite songs, but I do love to listen to music. Music is a huge part of my life... whether the words speak to my current feelings and situation, or the rhythm of a song makes me feel happy, I appreciate the beauty of music. 

With that being said, it is day 6 of the blogtember challenge, and I think you already know where I am going with this post...  

Tues., Sept 6: Create a playlist. What you're listening to now, what encourages you, holiday favourites, etc.

My "favourite" song changes on the daily! Literally. One day I would love one song, and then I tend to over it... all... day... long. For a good week or more. So, instead of sharing what my favourite songs are, I decided to create a playlist of songs that are currently on my replay list:
  1. We Don't Talk Anymore - Charlie Puth ft. Selena Gomez
  2. Into You - Ariana Grande
  3. Closer - The Chainsmokers ft. Halsey
  4. All in My Head (Flex) - Fifth Harmony ft. Betty Wap
  5. Kill Em With Kindness - Selena Gomez  
  6. Side to Side - Ariana Grande ft. Nicki Minaj
  7. This is What You Came For - Calvin Harris ft. Rihanna
  8. Don't Let Me Down - The Chainsmokers ft. Days
  9. Dancing Kizomba - Alx Veliz
  10. Piece by Piece - Kelly Clarkson


Well, there you go! Do you like some of these songs? 

What are you currently listening to?
