Okay, its really unusual to put this song here, but one song that will always remind me of Leadership is “we fell in love in october” by girl in red. Before I was in this program there was a whole different meaning to this song, the one that was probably intended by the artist. BUT tell me why this damn song is always playing! Like once a day, maybe even twice at this point, this song will always be on. Ok that might be my scitzophrenia.  Not saying its a bad thing that its always playing, I mean its a good song. Even though its been replayed a lot, it doesnt get old. This song has litteraly been with us through every major event we've had in leadership. From festivals to potlucks, you name it.

A song that I love from my childhood is Wide Awake By Katy Perry. As a child I was literally the biggest Katy Perry fan, I knew all her major songs by heart. I literally wanted to be her when I grew up. The most memorable part of the song has to be the music video. From how I remember it from when I was a kid, she was so powerful and pretty, and the effects were so good. BUT when I went to go rewatch it like right before I started typing this, it was messy… Like damn, was I just imaging it being good.. Or was I just a kid who thought anything made by Katy Perry was good. It was so random, like why does she become a mental patient in the middle of the music video? Aside from that crazy music video, the song is actually decent! It used to be my favorite Katy Perry song, and I do listen to it time to time to bring that nostalgia back.

A song for a fun memory is Telephone by Lady Gaga and Beyonce. So, when me and my sister were young, okay like when we were 10 and 8, we LOVED Just Dance, it was like so entertaining for us, especially during covid when we couldnt even go outside. So we found so many methods to entertain ourselves, Just Dance was one of them. But we never even had the game, we were a little broke! SO we would go on youtube and search Just Dance to play, and we were addicted to the Telephone Just Dance. Me and my sister would sneak downstairs just to dance to it at like 11 pm! We would have the volume at like 2. And one day we literally got caught because she fricken slipped. I was so mad, my mom took the remote away at night just to prevent us from sneaking down again and not sleeping. BUT, it was funny, especially when she slipped, and it was really a bonding memory for me and my sister. And Im not gonna lie sometimes we hit the jig a little, and you know I gotta be the blonde girl.

A song that I dont think Ill ever get tired of is Doves In The Wind by SZA and Kendrick Lamar. I love that little funky beat in the background, okay its not that funky but I have no other words to describe it, and the lyrics sound so meaningful coming out of their mouths even though they’re just talking about…..yk! Obviously Id want to share it with other people, I HATE gatekeepers, but I mean this song is already popular! So a lot of people already know it, but if I ever find somebody who doesnt, best believe this song will be on for them. But what I also hate about this song is playing it for other people.. Well mainly older people. Like when I play it in the car and my mom yells at me, mainly because they say the n word, but at least she doesnt force me to turn it off! A little scolding wont hurt.

A song that I loved while I was in 6th grade was attracted to you by pinkpantheress. Its actauuly still my favorite song from pinkpantheress, but its sooo short. It feels like its like a small snippet of a song, but its a full song! Now, I dont listen to it that much, but in 6th grade I literally had that song on repeat. Thats what I do with any song I like, but then it becomes overplayed and I kind of start hating it…

A song that I really love from before the year 2000 is My All by Mariah Carey, which was released in 1997. I was introduced to this song by TikTok because I was watching this video of like the hardest notes that Mariah Carey sang and this song has the hardest notes to song. When I heard it, I was like ou! What is this song!!!??? Although in the Tiktok I only heard one part of the song, when I listened to the full version it was so good. It wasnt those catfish songs that only have one good part! Its memorable mainly because it has really hard notes to sing, and like she goes so high in this song, its crazy.

A song that I would dedicate to my mom is Slipping Through My Fingers which is a song by ABBA, but the one that I listen to is the cover by Meryl. I first heard it in the movie "Mama Mia” and it instantly made me think of my mom. Now, this isn't a song my mom listens to, because she just doesn't listen to music. But this song just represents my relationship with my mom. My mom is my favorite person in the world, but we just don't have much time to ever be together. She works so hard to get me anything I ever wanted and sometimes I never appreciate it. Every time I fail her, she always accepts me back again. (idk if that makes sense) I really don't know what I did in my past life to deserve the best mom ever. Sometimes I get mad at her for the stupidest reasons even though she just wants the best for me. Like the lyrics say I try to capture every minute we have together, as we don't have a lot, and I do feel ourselves distancing. I hate admitting it, but it feels like she's “slipping through my fingers” over time. I really hope now after thinking about it, I try to appreciate the time I have with her. We never have time to be with each other as she's always at work and I'm at school but I really try my best to just run some errands with her to hang out with her. I love her so much.

A song that gets me in my feelings is “Don't Smile” by Sabrina Carpenter. Obviously this song is about her being jealous of like her ex with another girl?? I really don't know, but it's romantic. But this song gets me in my feels mainly because of the lyrics “Don't smile because it happened, cry because it's over.” Sometimes people try to comfort you after something happens by saying “Some things were just meant to happen, don't take it to heart.” AND I HATE THAT ADVICE. Like no I'm gonna take it to heart, I'm only human after all…..! And it's not a typical “sad” song but it still gets me in my feels, thinking about the lyrics and like thinking about past things that have happened to me that I still cry about.

A song that I would listen to on the road is 4 Seasons by Rex Orange County. Me and my friend Krystal, have always talked about the songs we would play when we first get a car and this song gets mentioned a lot. We always have this conversation somehow because we're always hanging out, and obviously we have to walk, BUT, we live like really close to eachother, so we always hangin out! And like 50 steps into us walking, one of us ALWAYS say “damn, i wish we had a car.” So then obviously we start talking about songs, and this song gets brought up. NO i actually cant wait to get a damn car to pour my heart out with her while listening to music. Hopefully we don't crash. ay no bad energy

(emotional 🥲) To be honest, when I first saw this prompt I was just gonna make some story up and call it a day, i was a little embarrassed to be like the only one with something negative, but I i guess ill be true with it. This prompt took me days to think of a song for this. (hol up idk if that even makes sense but in the sense that…) My dad is someone who has created a really negative impact on my life, i guess im supposed to feel anger and disgust when looking at him, but it's so hard to feel hatred for him. I don't know why but I feel like I still love him and god knows why. That's why I picked "Moonlight on the River.” In the lyrics, it states “and id tell you, that i loved you, if i did. Its so strange, deciding, how to feel about it.”  And that basically explains itself, I don't know what emotion im supposed to be feeling when I think about him. I just feel pity, he's put himself in a really bad situation, to the point where I've almost lost him, multiple times. and I know he caused it but I really don't even know, I always feel bad, because like at the end of the day, that's my dad. I just hope sometimes he looks at me, and thinks, that's my daughter And as much as I wish he would think that way, there's really no way to fix him or our relationship.

UNFORTUNATELY, i dont listen to music when im sad, id start laughing if i did. But one song I have for sorrow is “undressed” by sombr. It has lyrics like “i don't wanna get undressed for a new person all over again.” ay now obviously im not doing that but if you switch the meaning just a little bit, its kind of like building up connections with new people. And thats something ive dealt with a lot in my whole life, most of the times my connections dont last, so it feels really tiring and depressing having to go through the same stages with new people. BUt okay not tiring, i mean who wouldnt want new friends, but u get what i mean. This song makes me think, a lot, especially when it pops up on tiktok, and yes i discovered sombr there, what about it. His music is coo, hes gaining a lot of popularity, and like the second i saw him, it awakened the younger me obsessed with finn wolfhard, but ayo sombr cute.

A song for passion, to me, is “Drunk in Love” by Beyonce. Okay so there's not really a passionate factor to this song, but it makes me want to get up and have a whole performance, and just know I be tryna hit those Dubai riffs. 😔 now unfortunately, i can't hit those notes, yup very surprising, okay well not YET. and I know Beyonce might been affiliated with Diddy (she knows), but she is still good at singing. BUT BEST BELIEVE I will skip Jay-Z s part. Like why do we need unnecessary rap parts in every pop song, please only add it if it's good, not just because he's ur husband honey!

Well the song that I chose is not a sad song, so it didnt really help me through the “darker days” but anyways I chose 30055 by Childish Gambino. I think I was tryna switch up the music taste in 7th grade and this was like my most listened-to song that year, I think.

# data[].attributes.body
To be honest, at the start of the year, I didn't listen to music at all. I had this little phase where I was sick of hearing anything, so I would either scroll on TikTok or just not listen to anything. But, this year, 2025, I got back into listening to music, and I don't even know how I stopped. I mean I guess a song that I listened to a lot this year was "Hit Different”. And yeah, this year does hit differently from my other school years, mainly because of leadership. Sza’s verses on this song is like actually one of my favorites from her.

# data[].attributes.body
Okay, for this, I'd put Take Me Home by Pinkpantheress, but she's not my favorite artist. I don't think I could choose out of everyone I listen to as a favorite artist, so I just chose her because I've been a fan for like four years. I really like her music, although it might be short, and she has literally carried 2021 TikTok, her songs like switch vibes real quick, from happy to sad.

A song for joy for me would be California Gurls by Katy Perry. I know, basic, but it really brings back the good memories from the haunted House build. I miss those times so much, especially as the year is coming to an end, knowing I'll never experience it again, it truly hurts. But even though i miss it, it still reminds me of good, positive vibes. This song is coo because like we are the California Girls??? Like thefrickk.

A song that I dedicate to the homies is “Im only me when im with you”. Obviously title is self explanatory. This song like doesnt really have a connection with me and my friends, I just used it because its that little white girl summer song that I listen to and yeah it has a meaning in the song.

A song that Id dedicate for the future is Unwritten by Natasha Bedingfield. Okay so if you look at the lyrics which say “the rest is still unwritten.” thats whats most significant to me. I worry a lot about the future and im always wondering whats gonna happen, and sometimes Im scared for no reason, as the future is unwritten, nobody knows whats actually going to happen, so live in the moment.

# data[].attributes.body
A song for me is 20 something by sza. Okay so the song is about her being like an adult but if u switch the meaning just a little I feel like this song connects with me because although she talks about not wanting to be an adult sometimes I just dont want to grow up and just stay in this year forever. Especially 8th grade. I hate going into the future, as you dont know what it holds, so yeah.

The person Id like to dedicate a song to is Krystal. Although she is apart of the "homies’”. She is someone really special to me. We became friends in 6th grade and the crazy thing is she literally just came up to me in P.E and said can we be friends. And then boom we became friends. She is someone who has told me things that others never notice about me and I love her so much for that, she always notices the small details and I love hanging out with her and always laughing with her. So Id like to dedicate Ribs by lorde to her. Talking with Krystal is a really unique experience, we have like the deepest talks or say the stupidest sttuff to each other and never get tired of it. Now the song doesnt really relate that much with her but it is a song that we both listen to a lot, and the lyrics “youre the only friend i need” relates to her as well. OBVIOUSLY id like to keep all my friends, but she is really special and she is someone that has so many good qualities of a friend. Love her.
