Pretty Much Amazing
This mix is about how school is over and it’s summertime!
Why It’s Pretentious: Yeah, I could get you a frame or stationary set for your grad present, OR I COULD MAKE YOU A REALLY AWESOME MIXTAPE. As you can tell from the title, this mix was obviously about me and some of the pop songs I liked throughout my high school career, though I did stick some terrible songs on there to appease the masses (I’m looking at you, “Welcome 2 The World”). Also, I was horrified that “Don’t Stop Believing” was our senior song — this was in the pre-Glee days — but I compromised by adding a really low-quality electro remix.

21. one day, a moment, a love

This mix is about time travel, and also my 21st birthday.
Why It’s Pretentious: Uh. In case you don’t follow me on Twitter, I just want to let you know that it’s my birthday. Turning 21. On 11/11/11. So. You know. EVERYONE JUST PLAN ON ME BEING REALLY OBNOXIOUSLY EXCITED TODAY. Anyway, I made this mix in freshmen year of college. I realized I’d hit 21 on my “My Life In Song” series, so I decided to make a birthday mix for my future 21 year old self. Past self did a pretty good job; it’s short yet uplifting and starts with Ke$ha. Just like me.
