A life update!

Hello!

It's been a long time since I've even looked at A Slice of Mya. Over two months. I've decided that I need this creative outlet in my life and I should bring my blog back. Since it's been over two months, I thought that maybe I should give a little life update, so here it goes!

My last post was a back to school playlist, which was fitting since I wrote it during the first week of school. But since I posted it, I just got so caught up in my school work and my home life, that I never set the time aside for myself to write. I have been working a lot, as I've said on my twitter, I work at Starbucks. and its actually been going pretty well! I struggled a lot at first, I was under a lot stress to learn everything quickly, but luckily there are some great people that work there and I have an amazing support system at home that would always help me. Aside from that, at school I declared my major! I'm double majoring in Elementary Education and Special Education. I'm super excited to move forward with my passion as a career. My classes have been going well and I'm getting high marks in almost every class. Public speaking, which is the most nerve wracking class ever, is my lowest grade, but thats okay! It's all about improvement.

It is also almost my two year anniversary with my amazing boyfriend. He has been the brightest light in my life for the last two years. I do not even have the words to begin to describe how irreplaceable he is.

I know this update isn't a lot, but I don't do much. I will try (key word: try) to write more often and keep up with my twitter.

I'm glad to be back in this amazing community, you all are so supportive and wonderful. Thank you for being part of this wild journey.

Much love, xx Mya

My back to school playlist

I know everyone going back to university is a little nervous, at least I know I am, but something that always helps me with my anxiety is music. I am no musician, so playing an instrument or something like that just stresses me out more. However, I love to listen to music. Especially when I'm getting ready to do something that generally scares me.

I'm just going to share some of the songs that I have really been vibing with lately.

I hope that by posting this you guys can get to now me a little more and hopefully find some new music that you enjoy!

1. Cross My Mind by A R I Z O N A
    I saw this band live when they opened for Panic! at the Disco and I immediately fell in love with this song. It's a love song but, honestly its really a jam. There's also remixes of it if you're looking for something with more of a dance vibe.

2. Burn the House Down by AJR
    This song honestly just lifts my spirits so much. I don't know if its the awesome horn part or the words, but I love it. It makes me feel like no matter what, I can just keep working hard and getting stuff done.

3. Summertime Magic by Childish Gambino
     This song is kind of relaxing. I don't listen to a lot of Gambino's music but this song is so easy to listen to, and it reminds of summer even though school is starting up again. It's a good way to remind me of the summer and relax a little

4. Old Fashioned by Panic! at the Disco
    This song reminds me to stay young. University is making me so stressed and has me feeling like I'm not ready to be an adult. But this song hypes me up to still be young! It reminds me to have a good time while I'm here

5. Is Your Love Enough by Little Mix
   Being from the United States, there isn't as much hype around Little Mix and their music, but I've been a fan from the beginning. In fact, my friends and I tried to start a band called Little Angels because we wanted to be like them so bad. This song is so fun to listen to! And their vocals are freaking amazing, as always.

6. Freaking Out by A R I Z O N A
    Another A R I Z O N A song. I honestly have fallen in love with this band since seeing them live. But this song is one I can really relate to. It kind of explains how I feel when I have anxiety. It just makes me feel like I'm not alone and simultaneously makes me feel a little better.

7. Good Vibes (feat. Tove Styrke) by ALMA
    Just read the name of the song. That's exactly what this song is. It's just a feel good song to get you ready for the day.

8. Hey Look Ma, I Made It by Panic! at the Disco
   I'm sure you guys know by now that I'm a huge Panic! fan. And this song is another one of my favorites. It's fun to listen to and will definitely make you feel good about yourself instead of being hecka stressed about life.

9. successful by Ariana Grande
   This song is off of her new album. I have never been a huge Ariana fan, but I will always give new music a chance, and this song is a great find. It's all about young female empowerment and that's exactly what I'm here for.

10. Side Effects by The Chainsmokers
   I've always been a fan of The Chainsmokers. Their songs are entertaining and fun to listen to. Especially this one because it has the singing part and then a little rap part that's super fun to jam to in the car.
