As nice as it would be to pack up and go to Palm Springs, not all of us can.

Life gets in the way.

I know I personally can’t afford to right now. And even if I could, I doubt that the manfriend could take the time to get away from work.

That doesn’t mean that we can’t start making summer memories now. With all this nice weather, I’ve really been wanting to go to the beach. Since that’s not really always an option, I decided to do just that by bringing the beach to me.

BBQ style.

I grabbed a blanket, and some 20 oz bottles of Coca-Cola™ (which I like better because you can take them with you incase you do decide to go somewhere. Check out the Best Summer Ever Deals at your local CVS. Buy 2 20oz bottles of Coca-Cola products for $3! I also got a ton of ExtraCare coupons because I stop there so much).

The bottles have song lyrics on them and they help bring life to any summer gathering. I mean, with lyrics from songs like Summertime, how could they not? (Plus, if you download the Shazam App on your phone you can get the song!)

Kick off your shoes.

Add some tunes.

Fire up the grill.

Share a Coke and a song, and start making some memories!

The 10 Songs I Have on Repeat

I noticed that my more productive days are the ones where I’ve been listening to music while I work. I going to guess that it’s not just me. Music, for many, is a huge part of life.

So, I wanted to share the 10 songs that I am currently loving and listening to all of the time.

They seriously make me feel all the feels. I don’t necessarily like all of the videos (I’m looking at you Ariana Grande), but I refuse to pay for Spotify…

10 Songs

Black Magic | Little Mix

Corny but cute.
Kind of like me.

What Do You Mean | Justin Beiber

I don’t care what anyone says, this song gives me life. Whenever I am listening to Pandora and it comes on, I know that Pandora really does get me.

Fight Song | Rachel Platten

This is my fight song. If I’m down or overwhelmed, I know that this will remind me not to give up and to keep on fighting the good fight. One match, you guys…

Should’ve Been Us | Tori Kelly

Love her voice. Plus, she’s coming to Connecticut for the Next Big Thing!

Here | Alessia Cara

As social as I can be, I am definitely and introvert. I know, shocker! But this song perfectly sums up my mood most of the time. And I just found out that she’ll be in CT with Tori Kelly.

Like I’m Gonna Lose You | Meghan Trainor ft. John Legend

The first time I heard it on the radio, I turned off the radio and hummed it until I got home, because I was driving and didn’t want to forget it.

Stiches | Shawn Mendes

I don’t relate to this, but I like it.

One Last Time | Ariana Grande

This entire album.
Seriously.
I bought it on iTunes.

The Night is Still Young | Nicki Minaj

A friendly reminder to have fun.
And because Moscato.

Love Myself | Hailee Steinfeld

A song with a message.

I didn’t know this until looking up this song for this post, but does her voice sound kind of familiar? She was the new girl in Pitch Perfect 2! Yes, the flashlight one! Don’t know what I’m talking about?

Flashlight | Jessie J

This song, except image that Hailee Steinfeld is singing it instead of Jessie J.

Since that was technically 11 songs, what’s one more?

Levels | Nick Jonas

New hotness.

When do you like to listen to music?

What are some of your current favorite songs?
