Morning Playlist

Good morning!

How’s the year treating you so far?

Mine? Eh, let’s just say it didn’t quite start how I’d hoped.

I had plans for a fresh start for 2025, but it feels like the INFP in me got left behind in 2024. Yesterday, I wrote this ridiculously dramatic letter and spent most of the day in bed sleeping. I didn’t eat much either. Its like I was auditioning for a movie about heartbreak. I then went to bed early in the night.

Now I’m lowkey terrified this is foreshadowing for the rest of my year. Will I be in a perpetual nap or a year-long heartbreak? or both? 😅

I tried all my usual go-to vibes to fix the mood—music, movie, even a book—and nothing worked. It was tragic.

Today, though, things took a turn. I woke up early because nature called. When I crawled back into bed, I was immediately knocked out again. I then got woken up by my niece and nephew having a very intense conversation in my room. Terrence was interrogating Chloe about why only two cheese sticks were left when there should’ve been four. Chloe goes, “Maybe a rat took them. Rats love cheese, duh.” And Terrence, bless him, bought it. I was half-asleep but laughing in my head.

Later, I finally rolled out of bed, and Terrence came back, proudly announcing they brought me baked mac. Sure enough, there it was on my table, along with a plate of two cheese sticks—breakfast in bed, courtesy of my little chaos squad. I then offered the cheese sticks to Terrence because I could tell he kinda wanted them, but he refused and insisted they were mine.

That little moment revived me, and now I’m feeling kind of like a functioning human again. It even inspired me to share this playlist with you—it’s full of songs that feel like a fresh, sunny morning. Hope it brings a little joy to your day, too. 🌞
