get-well playlist

i've been sick. and traveling for work. which is so not a good combination. so it’s a good time to share my 25 most played songs in itunes. yay! songs get onto this list in two ways for me: it’s on a mix that I listen to repeatedly OR it’s a song that omg-i-can’t-get-enough-listen-to-it-on-repeat-for-48-hours. here are the songs that have gotten me through law school exams, the bar exam, and prepping for job interviews, the songs that inspired impromptu dance parties, the songs that made running miles and miles enjoyable, and the songs that live in my head. without shame (even over the one show tune), i'm sharing. enjoy!
