But, yet, here I am on every 15, 30, 60 minute break, waiting for either a strawberry smoothie or some sort of warm pastry. As I mentioned above, I don't drink coffee. There is a Starbucks down the corridor, but I can't bring myself to skip out on going to Dilworth. It's called Dilworth Coffee, and it is the cutest, most quaint little coffee shop. Because, at the end of the day, I'm a baseball fan before anything else. They played hard, played spectacularly, and made me realize why I love baseball so much. I really don't like either team, so I just kind of side with the Royals, and damn, are they a team worth the crown. And, damn, did they make it out alive! I've become somewhat of a Royals fan over the past two years-between Escobar + Cain being traded to them from the Brewers, and their opponents in the past two World Series-the San Francisco Giants and the NY Mets. So, as the season waned into the post-season, the only team that made it out alive was KC. This year, I picked the Brewers, Pittsburgh Pirates, Boston Red Sox, Seattle Mariners, and none other than the Kansas City Royals.
So, every season, I pick five teams to follow (including the Brewers-they will take precedence over every other team, terrible or not) on the MLB app. My team is the Milwaukee Brewers, but they haven't been spectacular in a while. I've been a baseball fan as long as I can remember. So, there's my response! What three songs would represent your 'brand'? I think the songs I chose reflect that pretty well! The soundtrack for my brand overall would definitely be about positivity and staying true to yourself and what you believe in. I think that comes across with the way I speak and how often I smile. I think this represents my brand because I am always happy and I genuinely want to live life as much as I can. I've always lived my life to the fullest, doing everything I can to experience what I want to. This song in particular is about living life the way you want to, and not allowing anyone to get in your way. I love OneRepublic, and I love that their music is always so positive and generally upbeat. I genuinely want to make the world a better place, and I think this song expresses that pretty well!Īnd, my last song is 'I Lived', by OneRepublic. But, like in the song, I feel like since I'm young, no one will listen to me while all I can do is sit back and watch the world I live in destroy itself. I try not to be as cynical about things as most people these days are, and I genuinely want to help make the world a better place. Like I said above, I'm a very optimistic person, and this is definitely the case when I put my outlook on the world. I've loved this song since I was a kid, and it has always resonated with me. My second song would be 'Waiting on the World to Change', by John Mayer. I relate to this, and I often try to be positive about my life and reflect that onto my friends and family. Sugar Ray sings about how amazing everything is after it rains-which, to me, speaks to the idea that if you hold out until after a string of bad days, it'll get better. I feel like this one represents my brand because it's got a laidback, relaxed vibe. The first one is 'Into Yesterday', by Sugar Ray. I had to do some hard thinking on this one-I think in part because I usually try to relate to songs, even if they don't directly apply to me! I went through my Itunes list quite a few times before I finally found three songs that I though really represented my brand. It was harder than I thought it'd be! Anyways, without further ado, here's my post:
This is the last post in the Class Blogging series! This one was about creating a three-track soundtrack to my life as a brand.
