Flashback Friday

When it came to choosing a song for this week's flashback Friday, I was feeling a bit uninspired. Nothing seemed to fit my mood. Rather than select a random song that doesn't hold much meaning to me, I thought I would shake things up and post a classical piece. In high school and college, I would often play classical music while I studied or took a bath. I also had the classical station set on my car's radio to help me relax if I was ever in heavy traffic or got really lost. When I was first learning to drive, I was a nervous wreck behind the wheel. Another reason I appreciate the genre is because of what it has done for films. Movies wouldn't be the same without it. Classical music holds a special place in my heart and deserves more love from young people today.

"L'inverno" (Winter) by Antonio Vivaldi, 1725.


Like me, Vivaldi was a redhead :)

Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, United States
I'm living life in beautiful Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. I hold a journalism degree from West Virginia University. I have worked in television news, fashion marketing, PR, and cosmetic sales. My love for writing and sharing with the world my various passions is strong. One of my many ambitions is to be published and continue creating in the fields of digital and print media, literature and film. In my free time, I enjoy listening to music, going to concerts, reading, following Pittsburgh sports and traveling as often as possible. Some of my favorite things include beauty, style, architecture, books, tarot and astrology, thrifting and my shih-tzu, Ireland. I’m engaged to the love of my lifetimes and we look forward to starting our next chapter together. If you have any questions or comments, I would love to hear from you!
