Request (only if you want to & have time, ofc) : I Gotta Feeling, that Black-Eyed Peas song that was so popular like 10 years ago. Whether you do it or not have a great day m8, this blog SLAPS!

this song…well…fuck. here’s what this song is:
there’s the cold sensation of a half-empty solo cup in your hand, and your friends are laughing a little too hard at something, because it’s late, and they’re running on adrenaline and bad decisions.
you’re standing in a dimly-lit room, and you can feel time slipping past you, you can feel every decision you’re making echoing into your future for years to come, but right now? right now you’re going to try and ignore that.
hidden in this, there’s a moment that you’ll remember fondly, a moment that stands out to you, brighter than the rest. much later, you’ll only remember the edges of it, but it’s okay - in the end, the real memory is this feeling that bleeds into your chest with every beat from the song playing over the too-loud speakers.
it’s like anxiety but it’s warm; it’s like love, but you’re not sure if you know what love is anymore. it ricochets around and through you, and you can feel it when you breathe, stronger than you can feel your own heartbeat.
for a second, you wonder if maybe it’s not too late to fix everything - in your life, in the world. you know you’ve been through so much, but in this liminal setting, it feels like things might work out. just this once.
and if things don’t work out, at least you’ll always have this moment to look back on.
