Remember that mix I made a while ago? 'If he wants me'?

He was my lover for five months. We live 400 miles apart, which made the relationship difficult. Throughout various visits and a month spent at home together, I fell in love. Then, he decided it wouldn't work out.

Now, he's doubling the distance between us by moving to New York City. I've never felt more alone.

I made this mix for my friend who is an architecture student. She spends hours upon hours in the studio, so I thought I'd make her a fun little mix to keep her going in the wee hours of the morning.

Last year I met this guy who was in love with Jazz music and with playing the trumpet. He's an amazing musician, but his music taste was pretty narrow. I decided to introduce him to music outside of Jazz that still feature trumpets, and this is what came out of it. I hope he liked it, but he may have just said so to appease me.

My favorite road trip of all time was when a group of friends and I piled into a car to see Bjork in Chicago. We left bright and early in the morning, and arrived in Chicago in time for Chi-town style dogs and a walk to the pier. We spent the rest of the day riding on tandem bikes and perusing the downtown stores. Needless to say, Bjork was incredible, even from our nose-bleed seats. On the way home we jammed to Daft Punk, got pulled over for speeding, and made a 4 am Steak 'n Shake run. Although we went to see Bjork, it's the trip to and fro and the afternoon spent in between that stick with me the most.

So here's a mix dedicated to good friends, incredible concerts, beautiful cities, and unforgettable trips.

I've kinda fallen for my best friend's brother. The trouble is, he lives about five states away and is three years older than me, and has little to no idea that I exist. Sigh.
