Hannah's Amazing Playlists

I like making playlists. I like making playlists that mean something, or tell a story. So, I'm going to share with you a few of my playlists and their origins. If you want me to burn you one of these, I'll gladly do it the next time I see you.


The first one is the playlist I made right after the New Day Camping trip, to commemorate the weekend. I added headings to explain what each song was about.

I also made a "people I miss and the songs I associate with them" playlist. I'm going to let you guys guess which song is yours.*

*The people who have songs in this playlist are: James, Jesse, Emily, Megan, Kiersten, Abby, Aaron, Gwen. I do realize that there are five more songs than people. One of them is an intro song, one of them is for a person who I'm not going to name, and three of them are merely "I miss you" songs.
