Not only Spotify wrapped this year is more accurate but they're also much much better than the slop last year. I've been listening to a lot of old songs this year my top 5 are all pre-2000s songs. Guess, I'm getting old 😬

The front cover of the book treasures of the maya, a book from geronimo stilton series.

I never realised how much Taylor Swift influenced my writing until I read a blog where an English teacher points out why Taylor seemingly excessive use of adjective makes sense. That teacher used this song to teach how to effectively incorporate adjectives in writing. Such a cool teacher tho.
Lines from Taylor Swift's song mine that says "you made a rebel of a careless man's careful daughter, you are the best thing that's ever been mine"

I'm currently watching the Netflix series of the perfect couple without reading the book first. So far, the acting is great especially Nicole Kidman (she's a stellar actress) but the pacing is quite slow to my liking but we'll see, I guess.

Classic rock bands and then there's Kesha 😅

The older I get the more appreciative I am towards old music especially rock. Like many young people, I used to think The Beatles was boring but now I think they're genius & they deserve every single accolades & praises they got.
At the top row there's a text says 'top artist' and 'last 7 days' next to it. Underneath that are photos of four artists; the byrds, dire straits, kesha, and the beatles

I always think youtube music wrap is much more accurate then spotify wrap. At least is seems so in my case. This just confirms how obsessed I am with The Police this year. Top 6% listener? Yes, I am 💅🏽
A black and white photo of the band the police. On the bottom left it said 'your top artist the police' A black and white photo of the band the police. On the bottom part it said 'you were in the top 6% of the police listeners. you listened to them 3× as much as the average listener' There's a stack of colourful CDs with the text 'the superhero. You soar across the musical landscape, exploring diverse music far and wide' at the bottom.
