Playlist: Summer 2008
I used to be THE master of playlists. The last couple years of high school and first couple of college, I could pump out a killer mix in a matter of minutes. Somewhere along the road, I just stopped making them. I guess I figured the shuffle feature in iTunes or on my iPod was good enough.
