  1. Gosh where to begin here honestly. There are so many things I can relate to when it comes to her music especially. I definitely have my own daddy issues when it comes to men. I always just feel the need to have my love validated through having a person. Like I need a person, I want a person, I have to have a person to feel. Sometimes I find myself being a stonewall. At least that's what people say including my partner. Growing up I learned to not show my emotions and it just kind of stuck with me. So I find myself just feeling disconnected a lot so there is always a certain sense of melancholia that I can feel. In her music I feel this undercurrent of melancholy that connects perfectly with mine. When in the end all I want is to love and be loved.

     

    As for her fast living at a young age that is something that I connect with completely. Whenever I was a teenager up until about 9th grade I had everything on track. I was set to graduate a year early and start college but for some reason my sophomore year I went fucking crazy. When I say this I mean life on the edge booze, drugs, partying, young, wild, and free. I had a lot of independence at this age. My parents were never really parents in that aspect so I pretty much did whatever I wanted. I was skipping school getting wasted and high just doing whatever I wanted. Really I had a control problem but also I was trying to escape my feelings and self. Like I said in a previous post I've had my fair share of tribulations and childhood wasn't exempt from that. It got to the point where my family couldn't handle it. They held a makeshift intervention and wanted me to go to rehab. At this point I had countless accidents i.e. running over trash cans, busting my head open, losing my car, driving in ditches. Too much shit to count. I also had a friend od and was involved in another wreck with two friends in which the driver died. So my life was pretty crazy. I went the first time but wasn't ready. I was seventeen at this time. I left the second day. After that a few months passed before I just couldn't handle it anymore. I was then ready! I went back and stayed through the whole program and it really helped and gave me a different outlook on life. I then stayed in a twelve step program for over two years and remained completely sober and clean. So that whole aspect of her music really resonates with me.

     

    Now I realize I was just a kid who was young and dumb. I don't do drugs or anything but I do drink on occasion. But the point is that part of my life shaped me into who I am today. I did all my partying in my early years and I feel like she can understand that and I appreciate that. Now I'm just like some old man lol at twenty five. But I'm okay with that because it is how I want to be. Idk there's a lot more to go on. I like her style. I like her niche for the vintage. I like her musical tastes as far as artists she likes and I also just feel like I share her same chill laid back attitude. That may be crazy because I don't know her but that's the feeling I get from her. My aspect on it is that shit happens in life and you just have to roll with it. I think she understands that. Lol honestly this was probably all a total over share but I wanted to focus on some more of the personal relations rather than the superficial ones. I just love her music for so many different reasons. It makes me happy!

    I was looking at the events for Gexa and they are packed pretty solid, so I can definitely see where there may be some conflicts.
