Reflections
Have you ever looked at something and thought I could write an essay about this? If yes, then you and I have something in common. This section focuses exactly on that feeling. Sometimes I am really inspired by a film, tv show, event or an album and thought I need to write about this. It is kind of like a review section as there will be some things I am more excited to write about then others. You may not agree with my takes but remember I cared enough to write, proof-read and convert my thoughts to markdown!

It's time and I am here for it all!
8th December 2025It’s time! and now that Spotify Wrapped came out to the surprise of no one, Mariah Carey was my top artist. This is the third time in a row, but she has always been in my Top 5 since I started using Spotify. I was in her top 0.02% of listeners, and she may be the Queen of Christmas, but she rules...

Beyonce, I saw Beyonce!
16th June 2025I think I first became a fan of Beyoncé in 2013. A little late, I know! But 2013 was the year I started caring about music. I don’t think I knew that Halo, Run the World, and Crazy in Love were by Beyoncé before that. Back then, I knew more of the rumours about famous people than what made them f...
