cara's vogue covers #2013

my top 13 major songs of 2013

2013 was a great year for music. Lorde came on the scene with Royals, Imagine Dragons really took the stage, Beyonce totally surprised the world with her self-title video album which is supposed to be super sick, the Jonas Brothers broke up, Katy Perry GREW UP!!!, Miley Cyrus...

There was a great increase in lyrical genius as well... when you feel my fear/look into my eyes/it's where my demons hide; there is no fear now/let go and just begin/ i will love you unconditionally; we'll never be royals, it don't run in our blood/ that kinda luxe just ain't for us/ we crave a different kind of buzz...total WOW moments. There was also a decline in mindless pop music (with the exception of Pitbull and Ke$ha's Timber which is a surprisingly cool song even if it IS mindless) and an increase in the demand for alternative/indie music. It shows that there is indeed hope for humanity.

So, here (in no particular order except Demons which is definitely my number one) is a video playlist of my favorite songs of the year. Enjoy!

it's the first day of the year








The time to break hastily made New Year's Resolutions has come (*slaps forehead in frustration*). Why can't people keep them for once...

The hoo-ha about the New Year has come and now it's slowly fading away and everyone is returning to normal (except for all those poor hung over people...). It's a New Year for everyone and everything. There is so much potential for change this year. I hope we all take advantage of it.

This (for me) has been one of the suckiest "first day of the year"'s I have ever experienced. But there are still 364 more to go right?

This year, I will do major exams, finally graduate from the horror that is high school, go abroad for a well needed break, meet my new cousin for the first time, go to university (*screams in excitement and trepidation*), and begin a whole new chapter. This year also, new fashion trends will come up, new musicians we will adore, new technology that will confuse us for like 2 hours (3 if we don't use the manual..we are so technologically awesome) and new burnouts that will have us laugh-wondering. I plan on dressing better...jeans and sneakers aren't going to cut in anymore (WHY?!) and I have to change. But I'm getting way ahead of myself here. We still have a while to go before all this happens...


So this year is going to be awesome hopefully. I hope it's awesome for all of you too. Happy New Year readers of this newly drafted blog. I hope we have a good year together.

For all random intents and purposes, enjoy this GIF of Batman and Robin. #coolduos
