***Phenomenology refers to specific lived experiences of a phenomenon***
In this case...the phenomenon is being a 20-something, artsy-chiC, female living in a little-big city...specifically***
SO, WHEN I WAS IN GRAD SCHOOL I TOOK A RESEARCH CLASS. I HAD TO WRITE A PAPER FOCUSING ON PHENOMENOLOGICAL RESEARCH STUDIES...STUDIES ON A PERSON'S "LIVED EXPERIENCE" OF A PARTICULAR PHENOMENON. WHILE WORKING ON THIS PAPER (OR I GUESS NOT WORKING ON THIS PAPER), I THOUGHT TO MYSELF...MAYBE I SHOULD SHARE MY OWN EXPERIENCES:*** LIVING IN NASHVILLE, TN...SINGLE...FEMALE...MID 20S...KINDA ARTSY...RATHER NERDY...IN GRAD SCHOOL...WORKS AS A REGISTERED NURSE...LIKES MEETING PEOPLE...LIKES GOING TO INTERESTING/NEW PLACES...GENERALLY OPTIMISTIC...MAYBE A LITTLE PASSIVE AGGRESSIVE*** BLOG = THE QUINTESSENTIAL, (VOCAB WORD!) FUN WAY TO ARCHIVE MY RANDOM THOUGHTS AND DOCUMENT MY ADVENTURES...OR MAYBE I JUST NEED A CHANGE OF SCENERY FROM FB AND TWITTER HA!
**Peace,Love,&Happiness!**
I LOVE a variety of music genres...Hip*Hop, R&B, Alternative, Old School, Jazz, Ambient, Blues Rock (and many more)...I FEEL MUSIC has the ability to change your mood...It's crazy how I can relate a song to MY LIFE and I sometimes mentally attach a SONG to situations or people...Downfall to that is: if I attach a song to something negative, I immediately hit SKIP when I hear it! It can be a really great song too! Don't you hate that!? It takes a lot of effort to mentally de-attach (made up word!) a song from a negative situation, but I'm willing to take on the rewiring for a really GREAT song...that's just how MUSIC & I roll...And with that, here's what I'm currently LISTENING to:
I know this album came out last year....but it's pretty typical of me to catch the end of the "sensation wave" when a new ANYTHING comes out...Music is TIMELESS to me...Quite frankly, there isn't much HiP HoP on the radio I enjoy listening too anyway...I've been deprived! (my most recent purchase before this one was Watch The Throne...attend that concert too...can we say AWESOME)...it was essential I purchased some real HiP HoP immediately...I heard JCOLE's Nobody's Perfect on the radio and decided to purchase this album on iTunes...I enjoy every song on this album...He tells stories with his songs...You can tell he is passionate about work...He's not trying to appeal to EVERYONE...He's GENUINE...just how I like 'em! Um...NASHVILLE, can you do me this one favor...bring JCOLE here, please?
P.S. Check out this video...it's really cool...LOVE the song too....S/O to CT! (you might have to pause my super fantastical eclectic playlist below...if you haven't already lol)
