Am-BEE-do?

Where do I even start? What does this word mean?

Well, to start off, I found the original definition on a Pinterest search. Yes, in my violent wave of seasonal depression this weekend, I found a new favorite word.

It's called: ambedo.

New favorite words = new Spotify playlist. This one in particular might just be one of my favorites to date.

Ever since I discovered the Coldplay song "Paradise" at the great age of ten, something in my brain had been permanently altered. I was determined to find that same feeling that this song had given to me all those years ago.

And so, from this collection of ideas came, you guessed it, an even more abstract playlist that I have been having a hard time putting into words. Despite this, I can confidently say that every single song I've chosen for this playlist has either 1. altered a moment in my life too significantly I can't forget about it and/or 2. made me feel the strongest sense of emotion while listening to it.

I recognize putting feelings into words should be a speciality of mine, but this was a bit difficult for me, so I decided on the playlist route. As I approach a big milestone in life (graduating college, yay!) I feel myself being bombarded with feelings of nostalgia mixed with that well-known melancholy. I'm excited for the future, but scared to see what it holds. Maybe that's where the idea for this playlist really came from...but who truly knows?

I hope you're able to listen to the playlist, and see what you think. I also encourage anyone to take some time to self-reflect and make a personal playlist like this (then again, I recommend doing this at any time in your life--it's a great way to get to know yourself and your music taste a bit more).

I attached the link to the playlist. If you decide to listen, then I hope you enjoy. :)
