Hello guys !
How's life treating you? Mine's so busy lately, hence to school and everything. But usually while im walking home from school I'm listening to Dopamine. I would like to talk about it a little.
Børns is an artist who's been coming up in front of me a fairly lot amount of times, but i never happened to listen to any of his songs. Since one day, when I was listening to a playlist and one of his songs came on shuffle. I thiiink I wasn't that amused at first, but i added it to my music anyways.
So days went by as usual and I kept listening to it and liking it more and more, leading to now, that i pretty much only listen to his album. Since that time I've seen some interviews, listened to some of his acoustic versions, making me fall for his music even more.
His songs have a great meaning, and the music is so well written and such a bop, it always makes me dance you know. Most of all, I respect him as an artist, and that adds up to reasons why Im in love with his music.
It's already March, and i think Børns and his album is the best thing that has happened to me so far in 2017 (musically speaking).
Go definitely give a listen to Dopamine (I'll have some songs suggested at the end of the post ) and I promise you, you'll throw a little party with his amazing songs.

Hellooooo
So as you guys know, recently i had my bday and among the gifts I got, one of my best friends, Linn, got me this book I wanted to buy since the day it was released. You can imagine the happiness™ I had, it was literally the highlight of my day.
Obviously , as soon as i got it, I couldn't wait for bedtime, when I'd curl up under my blanket, with low lighting, and read all of it. And that's what actually happened, which apparently wasn't the best idea , cause I got all emotional and OH MY GOD I literally cried my eyes out.
So now onto the review. First of all, Will Darbyshire is an angel. I've known him for a while now, because he has a successful YouTube channel, so I was familiar with how much of an amazing personality he has.
His book, A Modern Love, is a project that he was working on for a year. He asked people over any internet platform, to send him replies for 6 questions, in every way, even by physical letters. Then he got together all the best ones and that's how a modern love was made.
This book is so moving, not only because of people's stories, but the thing that made me tear up is that you can actually see how many people get through the same difficult situations as you do and that you're not alone at this and afterall, everything gets better after a while.
In conclusion PLEASE GO BUY THE BOOK RN it's like the most amazing thing you'll ever read. I'll leave you with one of my favourite parts.

Yes its me Kate, and nothing has changed In my life more than the fact that I actually am 20 years old.
This is gonna be short, but all I've realised Is that time can heal everything and change lots of things, but the things that matter are the ones we do to change ourselves.
Cause life is a never ending process of creating yourself, isn't it?
So here's to a new year full of changes and happiness. But most of all falling in love with myself...

You gave me everything.
You gave me everything I could ever wish for and even more. You made me feel things i hadn't felt before. You made me go crazy about you. You succeeded to conquer my mind and control my thoughts. All of them were about you. You made me crave you like a drug addict.
After all i can say yes, you were my drug. You were so bad for me, you were only hurting me and made me feel like a mess, empty, not knowing if i have anything inside me left. But you were sooo good, so sweet you made me feel numb, forget about everything wrong in my life and made me believe in my self, something i would never do before. You made me feel like i was the richest person on the planet, having everything I've ever wanted, and all I did was you. I felt full, complete, a soul full of content.
You were an illusion. You were so perfect for me, so amazing, you made me feel im worth. And then suddenly, i saw the real you. The real cruel you , who just left me out of nowhere, without any explanation. And i was just hanging there, with my naked soul watching you leaving.
You left me so empty that if someone shoted me that day, the bullet would go through my body and hit the wall. Cause i was empty , a black hole, I was nothing. I gave you all of me and i had nothing else at the end. Just emptiness.
And now I have to rebuild my self again all the way from the start. What will i be that time? How will i chose to create me now? Maybe a girl without emotions. A girl who doesn't care about love or anything anymore. A girl who only cares about having fun and playing with boys emotions.
"You made me hate the masterpiece i was so now I'm just a sketch on the last page of an old notebook"
