Vampire Weekend (Makeup Blog)

I first discovered Vampire Weekend when I was in eight grade. People got back from ACL and so many people were talking about and wearing their shirts. (Which by the way was sooooo cute. I wish I got one)
So that night I listened to a couple of their songs like Holiday and I Think Ur A Contra and I kinda liked it. I thought Holiday was super catchy and I would catch myself humming it. I Think Ur A Contra was relaxing but a little boring.

Fast forward like a few more months and I'm in Hollister and I hear this super chill song and I'm like whaaaat. It really stuck out to me because usually Hollister has the most headache inducing songs. So I took out my phone and shazamed it and I was really surprised that it was by Vampire Weekend! Then a few seconds later the manager came up to me and asked me "Do you go to school near here? Are you interested in a job? How old are you?" (I was almost fifteen lol) At that exact moment I decided this was going to be my lucky song.

So when I got home I played it non-stop. It was repeat 24/7. I fell asleep to it and I woke up to it. I was seriously obsessed. My parents probably wanted to kill themselves. But yeah, It made me want to try Horchate so badly. (I later had it at a kite festival and almost threw up ugh) I took 3 test during that week and I aced every single one. I was convinced this was my lucky song.

Then my phone got stolen on that Friday. Everything along with my obsession with that song was gone. The only reason I'm blogging about it today is because it was mentioned in class and flashbacks came.
