Songs of Me - as of 2015

I recently went through my message drafts and found songs that I've been collecting since the late '00s as songs that resonated with me or described me in some way.  As it's currently trending, I figured I'd reveal the list (unedited) to share with my readers the songs that have shaped me into the strong, adventurous, and definitely weird woman that I am today. 

Music has always been an incredible influence in my life. The last update was from 2015, but I still listen to many of these songs to remind me of where I came from, where I've gone, and what I have to look forward to.
