DECEMBER PLAYLIST 3.12
And just like that - 2019 has came and gone.
I just don’t know how to feel. The best way I can describe how I feel is its like when I was 9 years old - a few days from turning 10 and I was so sad to turn 10 years old. The reason I was so so sad because I knew the gravity turning an age in the double digits, I knew I would never ever be in the single digits again. I know - pretty solemn for a 9 year old. That’s how I currently feel. I mean everyone is hyping up 2020 sooo hard and its gotta be the year of blessing and this and that etc. I am lowkey HIGH key scared because I can feel everything around me changing. And I know what you are thinking “Cheyenne - you preach about change all the time?” and yes I know. I think it’s very healthy and I’m pro-change but its difficult when everything and everyone is changing around you and you are trying to get your bearings on what’s even going on. Turning 25, also freaks. me. out. Me …..25. A whole concept that honestly never thought I honestly would live out lol.
Don’t get me wrong. There are a few things I’m excited about. Kicking the year off right with a few things but everything is going to change next year. Everything. That’s bitter sweet for me but I am super grateful for everything and everyone who helped me get to this point though. Its crazy to think a whole decade ago I was a 14 year old girl in high school and now I am a semi - adult/woman turning 25. I’ve been through soo soo many changes over the last decade. I definitely came into myself which is dope to reflect back on. Like I really know who I am but now its moving in a way that is for me. I think looking forward- I still have a lot to work on and goals I want to reach but I guess like they say in order to grow “ you need to get comfortable with being uncomfortable.” and you know what? I’ll get over myself. Life moves on and I have to move on with it. New opportunities are scary but also exciting. I’ll be excited soon - just let me get all the nervousness and anxiety out before I turn over this new leaf.
THE PLAYLIST
This playlist honestly my top 32 songs of this decade from 2010 -2019. These songs all have sooo much meaning to me and my growth. They either helped me get through some tough times or made me feel so sooo soo good throughout the years. I honestly might add a few more- idk yet. I feel like these songs shaped my music taste. Over the years, the one thing I could always count on is good music. All these songs hold such a special place. Can never skip these songs if they come on shuffle. This literally a playlist of all the songs I love, reminds me of all the people I love, the moments I love and some moments where I learned to love. I’ve been dying to do one of these for a while. So I hope you enjoy!! Why call it Olive Juice? Drake’s “Best I Ever Had” 3:49 will clue you in.
ALSO, shout out to Spotify. I’ve been rocking with Spotify since DAY ONE since like 2013. I’ve been so glad that I have this as an outlet to even create playlists and create a library of music.
Lastly, Thank you all who listen and read these posts. I appreciate it from the bottom of my heart. AND IF YOU FOLLOW THE PLAYLIST, GAH YOU ARE A REAL ONE. Man, I know 30 followers ain’t a lot but dude coming from a time when no one followed to now I mean - I’m hype. Next year will be my fourth year doing this. Honestly I’ve thought about stopping these because I’ve been so busy with work, freelance and just life but this keeps me sane. These playlist helps me level out and find balance in my work and what I like to do. So imma keep doing them!
Keep Creating,
The Olive Wave
PS. SHOUTOUT to Tyanna! She took these lovely photos in France and let me use them for the creative. A real one.
