I just want you to know that on Saturday I stood in a crowd shouting along to Just A Girl being covered by Misterwives with "BANS OFF OUR BODIES" projected onto the backdrop

2018

Somehow I went into 2018 with a clear head and clear mission and I ended it super unsure of myself, of everything. It’s always easy to look back and see the good; I say this every year. And I certainly have had some amazing things happen this year, but this time around I see those as distractions to the cloud of sadness, uncertainty, and anxiety that’s been over head all year. 

I’ve let my imposter syndrome eat me alive...and I’m not sure what to do about, it’s persistent despite having achieved a lot. This year I designed merch for a handful of bands (no one that I really listen to) but exciting none the less. Knuckle Puck sold my design at the last Warped Tour. I got to see kids walking around wearing it which was surreal (now I look at it and feel disappointed I didn’t make something better, haha). I designed for Chloe Moriondo, Tiny Moving Parts, Remo Drive, The Spill Canvas, Save Face, Otherways Music, and the biggest; a music video for Sleep On It. That one is the craziest to me. Like really crazy. I hope in 2019 I get to work with some of my dream bands. 

I went to something like ~55 shows which means i spent like 1/6th of my nights in sweaty venues singing along to songs I love. Some bands I’ve wanted to see for a while and finally got to see this year were Taking Back Sunday, The Killers, Arctic Monkeys, Andrew McMahon (I saw him open for panic but this was a full, unique set), and Hozier! Hozier was really special. I also photographed 15 shows! So I did fulfill that resolution of shooting more shows; I’m really proud of the photos I’ve taken. I also interviewed New Politics and there’s a clip of me talking to them on Alternative Press. I saw The Wonder Years a lot this year, and saw so many friends and screamed with so many friends. Some other super memorable shows were Hinds, SOTC, Boston Calling, Misterwives, All Time Low, the final Warpeds.

The first few months of this year feels like multiple life times ago, I can barely remember, or I look back at photos and think, oh there’s no way that was in 2018. I think this summer is the split. This summer was the glowing light of this year, the only redeeming part. At the beginning I traveled to Boston and Philly for music. I turned 21 and had an iconic emo night party in a Brooklyn airbnb. And kissed someone you all know from this site lmao wild. But I had a good ass time, a rarity on my bday. Then I flew off to Nashville. I hope everyone gets a chance to live with their best friend for a summer. I had a lot of fun + made the most of the week a flew home and photographed Taylor Swift at Metlife. Heard a lot of music, had lots of trips to Dozens, lots of margaritas, lots of walks on broadway and the pedestrian bridge. 

And then the summer ended and I had to go back to Pratt. This past semester was horrible....really unbelievably horrible that I don’t even want to get into it. Like I don’t even know who I am anymore. But there was independent publishing, and the radio, and I made friends who I love a lot. I hope we get closer + don’t lose touch when we all Escape in a few months.

My favorite day of this year was when Dylan drove through Nash and Dan, him, and I went to Cummins Falls. We started the day with pancakes, hiked through water for a bit, saw the falls, lost Daniella’s keys, and drove home. The drive home was just one of those perfect moments, you have your bathing suit on under your clothes even though it’s still a little wet, and your hair is a mess, and air is balmy and warm, the sun is setting on the road ahead of you, and the Killers are playing, you’re a little tired, but don’t want to fall asleep and miss a minute of it. Then we got Thai food and had to make a copy of the house key for Dan at Walmart. 

I want more moments like that in 2019, at the very least.

The Top Albums of 2017 (So Far)

Alas, it’s only mid-year, which leaves us with the task of distilling everything we’ve heard so far into quick, concise top 10 lists.
