Quick Roadtrips & First Concerts :: How To Make Precious Memories On A Single Mom Budget
You remember Middle School, it's the time when music really starts to resonate with you and you start to relate to the meaning of all those personal lyrics and you drown yourself and your newly developing hormones in solitude and become one with your favorite artist, wearing your air pods or dancing secretly in your bedroom.
