What Happens In MarshVegas, Goes On Instagram

I took off work on a Friday. Since I didn't pack the night before, I woke up at 7:30 a.m. and threw clothes into a bag. I waited and waited then took a car to my sister's job and we were on the road. We were traveling to Marshfield, Massachusetts for my sister's wedding shower.

I haven't been to the state in so long, and never went to Marshfield. The cute little, quiet, seaside town was love at first sight. The two bars, once ice cream shop, one tourist shop, and one breakfast place was ideal for me. There was nothing overwhelming, minus the road along the ocean. There wasn't a bad view. It felt like I was on a different planet.

Coming 8 hours from Philadelphia did not feel real. The ocean air hit me over and over. I never got tired of smelling it, and having the salt water dry on my skin. I only spent a weekend and I didn't want it to end. It was just peaceful. I am ready to go back, like tomorrow.

Can we take a moment to appreicate Kesha?

I remember hearing about Ke$ha before the major hit "Tik Tok" was played at every party. The first note, I was obsessed. That album, Animal is still one of my favorite to this day. 
The follow-up albums (including the remix album) I was a fan. I never gave up on my girl. I told people " I really relate to Ke$ha." My friends always laughed, but I always meant it. All her lyrics are meaningful and thought out. Ok "Boots and Boys" I don't think that is meaningful, but damn it is a good song.
The rainbow, bright return of her after four years of hardship has been amazing to watch and listen. When I saw that tweet come across about "Praying" I secretly was freaking outside. I waited and waited. The video did not disappoint. I listen to it once a day. Then "Woman" came out and I wanted to punch every man in the face and say "Mother F**Ker." Listen to the song and you will get it.

She just released "Learn To Let Go," and I already can tell, she is my day 1 forever. She invokes something in me. There is a new breath of confidence I have when I listen to her songs. Most people think I am kidding about how much I appreciate Kesha, but I do. This song just automatically clicked with me. There has been so much weighing on my shoulders and mind that it was nice to hear someone else say "learn" from it and move on. The home movies vibes of the video are something everyone can relate to. It is about looking at your past, present, and future and seeing that there is more to life. "These things" happen, they can either hold us, or we can hold onto ourselves and not forget, but not be defined. 

We need to appreciate this woman. She is strong, and simply one of the best pop-stars to come from the 2000's. I even dare to say of all time. She is so powerful and confident. She is what a singer should be. She evolves, she learns, she loves, she creates. We honestly need to appreciate her. Her swearing isn't something bad, she is a representation of our times. She takes the bad and makes life from it. She inspires and continues to do so. She is the pop-star we need, but almost don't deserve.
