My “old soul/new soul” post has been popular for quite a few years now. It seems to be a subject that a lot of people are interested in.
#3: 15 Podcasts to Listen to This Halloween
I didn’t expect the Halloween Podcast to become so popular. This was posted five years ago! And it was never really that popular until this year. It shows how older posts can suddenly gain traction out of nowhere.

Song Analysis | “Teddy Bear” by Melanie Martinez
Now, the following is my top 5 personal favorite blog posts I wrote in 2025. This is in no particular order!
History of EDM (Electronic Dance Music)
I love EDM – so much that I was very curious about where it came from, how it evolved, and all of these endless amount of sub-genres it created. I learned a lot through my research in writing this.
The Lost Art of Music
Learning about EDM roots made me further interested in the roots of music entirely. But not only learning the history – trying to find the point in time in which the art of music became lost. Or did it ever become lost? Or has it always been a little lost? These are the questions I faced.
Pennsylvania Dutch Culture: Folklore, Faith, and Folkways
My mom’s side of the family comes from a Pennsylvania Dutch background which has a strong culture that I grew up with. The thing is, you don’t really see much about it – it’s a culture that is erasing itself at a rapid pace. I wanted to capture this and preserve this moment in time because it’s important to know where you came from.
10-Year Anniversary of “Cry Baby”
This is such a fantastic album and I had so much fun revisiting it after so many years of absorbing it. I had so many thoughts that I wanted to share about this record!
All of My Hobbies & Passions
This is a personal post about everything I’m passionate about doing. I think that everybody should sit down and make a list of all of their hobbies or interests. It reminds you why it’s exciting to be alive. And we all have such unique passions.
Thank you to everybody who supported my blog in 2025! May next year be an even better year for blogging!
