Shine Bright Like a Diamond


Can I just say this week has been insane! There have been tests and papers, not to mention having to write a copy for a brochure and come up with a print ad, along with writing a few essays. I know I’m not the only one feeling the pressure. My twitter feed is full of it. Thankfully, it’s Friday and I’ve had some good music to get me through. Rihanna released the 1st single from her 7th studio album¸ a demo from Katy leaked, and Florence and Calvin teamed up. The new tunes are great because it means the industry is progressing despite the EMI buy out.

Through all the crazy studying, the song that’s been on repeat in my head is “Diamonds” by Rihanna. Word on the street is that it was written for her grandmother who recently passed away. It’s one of those songs that you break the replay button on, but aren’t sure why. The line that stands out the most to me is the second line. “I choose to be happy.” Isn’t that the truth? Happiness is a choice and one we should pick more often. So today I choose to be happy and smile, knowing I am that much closer to being done with school.
