me and M started making our mixtape the other day...and before i knew it, i'd started making mixtapes to even more of my friends. some of them longer than other ones... they consists of songs that somehow reminds me of the person the mixtape is made to. whether it reminds me of a certain experience i've had together with this friend, the friend recommending some music to me, dedicating a certain song to me or just the song/artist reminding me of the friend one way or another. i've even made cover art for the mixtapes, only containing the initial of the actual friend. it's remarkable to see how different they turned out:

i could keep on going. T, R, T, D and C even got some songs...but not actual lists yet. and every time i think of a person that means something to me, i find more and more songs for mixtapes. maybe i'll bring more up later on. anyways...funny to see the difference huh?!

oh...by the way...i had my second last examination this winter, today. the much hated grammar test. i think it went well actually. and now it's over with. finally. cross your fingers that i passed this time. i have to! i stay at my parents house these days in order to finish up my last assignment before i can finally get back to my life, sit back and relax and do whatever i feel like when i feel like it for 2 weeks before the new term starts at uni, the student house opens up again and the concerts at godset starts again. yay. it's going to be a wonderful spring.
