In March, like most college students, I left for spring break uncertain if I would return to campus due to the coronavirus. Nearly a year from that point in time, and a college degree later, and I feel like time is passing me by.
It's been a year without social gatherings and mandated mask wearing in public. Meaning life as we know it has ceased to exist. People are having to rely on their own means of entertainment as the feeling of isolation continues to loom in a socially distanced world.
I've always used music as a mental vacation. It takes me to places I've never been, and tells me the stories of people that I'll never meet. Now more than ever, I think everybody could use a mental vacation. Hopefully, some of the songs on this playlist can help you find yours.
