missed the boat

guys, i just finished exams. also, my funding from quest for gold just came in. i'm quickly slipping away from this week's theme!

but lucky for present ian, past ian took some time to think this theme through whilst experiencing such emotions. came up with a couple tracks that get me through hard times. although, if our biggest worries are failing exams and not having enough money to buy christmas gifts, i'd say we're pretty fortunate.

first, shad. a lyrical genius from london that loves to take naps. this guy's casual attitude reminds you to just lax the shoulders, lay back and enjoy the ride. he doesn't blog or twitter. that shit's too mainstream. this song specifically also adds another element of the theme. i try to listen to it every once in a while to remember how to be wise with my money, key for surviving the holiday season.




they say that even acting out a smile can boost serotonin levels and make you happier. but honestly, if i'm upset, i don't always like to try and make myself feel better. sometimes you need something sombre to suit your mood. this song does that for me and also reminds me of drives down scott street back home. with home on my mind i can usually will myself to read a few more pages from my textbook.



do right.

ian
