I know finals week can be a real test of your patience. The idea for this playlist is less dance, and more taking a chill study break in Starbucks. Also, there is a negative feel to the music, but I went for a “making fun of stress” kind of thing. This playlist might also be good mopey music for morosely staring at your teacher. I would not suggest studying with music, but if you are going to (loud libraries or crowded coffee shops) this music is pretty good for that as well. I have also included a “pump up” song to listen to before the bell rings, a song to listen to after you are done with your test, and a song to blare on the ride home. The picture for the playlist is courtesy of Will “I’m a slave to photojournalism” Fleming. Don’t tell him I said this, but his pictures are really good. The picture for the 8 tracks playlist will also be from him.Link: http://8tracks.com/hopinfriend/a-white-blank-page-and-a-swelling-rage.
