As I sat down with my back up against a tree and my laptop resting on my legs I put on my new headphones and listened to the playlist that I created over the weekend.
It started off with She's Kinda Hot, my new favorite song from the aussie band 5 Seconds of Summer. By the end of the song I was Singing along, not too loudly though because my neighbors were outside as well and they most likely didn't want to hear something that sounded like a dying cat.

"Making a new playlist." I said.
