Now you know what I have been listening to on repeat in the past bit of time (see post below), but I must say, life-wise I have had a topsy-turvy year of it in all, explaining my absence from such things as blogging. The thrilling news is that things have been looking up in a major way for the past few months.

2012 has been the year where I finally have taken charge of my life and fate in a way I didn't think I was capable of. I felt like I was living on Dead End Street for the first half and some change of 2012 but now the joyful, energetic feeling I have every day has been distinct, ever since I got a job that I love with a happy work environment. And that, my friends, has made all the difference.
