Sometimes the perfect moment is just all those little moments cobbled together and set to music.

Hello, you. June’s theme will be LONGING. Unlike more-acute forms of desire like desperation or need, longing is a sweet ache—more pining for something than dying for it. It’s nostalgia, homesickness, boredom, a persistent feeling of lack, dreaming of escape/the future. It’s summer: summer homes & cottages, stuffy summer bedrooms, sun-bleached memories of summers past. The shadow of September that hangs over June. It’s secret hangouts, crushes, unrequited love. Send what you’ve got here, and thanks. ♥

I just slow ran around my living room for the first 5 minutes. True story. I need all of these for life’s mundane tasks.

Log in to replyHeck ya! During college, Eye of the Tiger was my pre-game song for soccer. I would briskly walk through campus eating a hotdog and getting PUMPED to kick ass. For those 4 minutes I was ROCKYYYYYY.
Log in to replyAin’t nothing more slow-motion-running-and-dodging-spells-in-your-living-room epic than the Harry Potter soundtrack.
Log in to replyOHMYGOD YES. And also starkid music:
No way
Kick it up a notch
Voldemort is goin’ down
You were never my lover (stutter)
Harry Freaken Potter
Goin’ Back to Hogwarts
Get back up

Super Friends
Also, when I’m feeling bad about myself I listen to “Coolest Girl”! Such a good self esteem song! Love ya Herman!

Aaaah yes starkid! And Harry Potter! Totally awesome!
Log in to replyhaha my dad was actually one of the runners on the beach at the start of the chariots of fire movie :) he’s cried before when the song has come on; says it takes him back to his uni days!
Log in to replyIt’s movies based so I knew everyone… except Potter. Had to look that one up :D Always though the last movie was a little over rated. ANYWAYS… sad to seen Queen TWICE on the list YET no Princes of the Universe!!!!!! No one knows that song and it is the THE BEST SONG THEY HAVE EVER DONE!!!! Totally power related too. Even running. The beach scene…

How can I find my style? I want to wear big hoops one day and hipster trousers the next! I want to wear vintage clothes but people think it is awkward and I still want to look cute. Please help me. :((((

Log in to replyRecently I bought a longboard, so the picture of this article drew me in! I love to skate while listening to ‘escape velocity’ by The Chemical Brothers as well as doing tasks like art projects, it’s so invigoratingly motivational, and you so feel badass doing whatever you’re doing as soon as the main part kicks in. Epic. I really wanna send in a ‘longboarding’ playlist into Rookie…

Log in to replyThis playlist is really great, I’m actually writing an article for my blog and it helps me so much to find my words since there is no lyrics or almost!
