Waking up and hustling to early morning classes can be rough. As the days grow shorter, there will be times where I have to commute to class in the dark, certainly not motivating me for the day. As I ride my bike through bitter cold air, the ideal companion to this journey is the perfect playlist.
This mix starts out with gentle songs that ease me into the morning: Some will embrace the melancholy that comes with leaving my dorm in the dark, and some are simply peaceful. It will then move into some heavier and upbeat tunes that never fail to wake me up. Either way, I will be prepared for what the day brings.
