An Introduction
I wanted to start this blog by publishing an introductory piece to provide you with a better sense of who I am and what you can expect from my content. I will be focusing on topics about and relating to pop culture, so let me introduce those facets of myself.
Music Enthusiast
I am a long-time pop music devotee. My favourite artist of all time is Taylor Swift and her music has been a constant in my life since the release of her second album, Fearless, in 2008. Over the years my music taste has changed and evolved, and I’m excited to dive into discussions surrounding a variety of artists! These include:
Lana Del Rey
Olivia Rodrigo
SZA
Chappell Roan
Mitski
Britney Spears
Ariana Grande
Angèle
The 1975
Lorde
Charli xcx
However, my music taste is not confined to contemporary work. I grew up listening to artists from past decades and hold a deep appreciation for them even now. Classic artists I love include:
Jeff Buckley
James Taylor
Nico
Barbra Streisand
The Velvet Underground
Tori Amos
The Smiths
Bob Dylan
Film & TV
Aside from music, I am a big fan of both TV and film. While I would not call myself a cinephile, I tend to immerse myself in many forms of media while keeping up with the online discourse they generate. Some of my favourite films are:
About Time
Amélie
Before Sunrise
Pride and Prejudice (2005)
500 Days of Summer
As for television, a few of my favourites are:
Gilmore Girls
Sex and the City
New Girl
Barry
Friends
Beyond Pop Culture
When I’m not consuming pop culture, I spend my spare time writing poetry, taking walks, feeding neighbourhood cats, and yearning to travel more. If you’re interested in poetry, you can follow me on my Instagram @yasmineswriting.
I hope this introduction provides an intriguing glimpse into who I am and what you can expect from my blog. No matter why you’re here, I appreciate that you are.
Stay tuned for my first true publication, and feel free to reach out with any comments, questions, or suggestions!
