Tangled In The City: Tunes of Exploration

Is it seriously August already?

Unacceptable.

Have I really been here for 5 months already?

Is it just me or does time just fly by after you turn 25 years old? You know when you were like 15 or 16 and you are literally wishing, hoping and praying that time would speed up? Well I'm at the point in my life were I want to go back to the 15 year old me and give her a good slap and say... "Why are you rushing your life away.
Live.
YOU DON'T HAVE ANY BILLS!!!!!!"

Okay...now that I got that out...

This time of the year is officially crazy mode at work.
(Stylemax...Bridal...etc. dresses, dresses and more dresses galore!)

So whenever i get the chance i make a point to get out and make the most of my time off.
Lately i have been on an 'explore & jam out' kick.
aka:
when i just walk around until i can't walk anymore while snapping pix and listening to my fav tunes.

YES I'M STILL IN "I CAN'T BELIEVE I LIVE IN CHICAGO" MODE.
BARE WITH ME.
IT'S GOING TO LAST FOR A BIT.

Here in the city...or any big public transportation city I would guess; music is all around.
You can't go 5 minutes without seeing someone here with earbuds in or an iPod. You don't realize how much down time you have during a commute; until you don't have a car anymore. who knew)

Well with all this time on my hands; i have started making playlists for pretty much every occasion.
Morning Commute. Evening Commute. Chicago Transite. Exploring. People watching.
did i mention how much i love music?

So I thought i would share with you some of my pix and tunes.
And yes...I'm still insanely obsessed with instagram... enjoy!

Happy Hump Day!
