Comment:

Just a lot of tracks that I've had on my hard-drive for a while now and I've wanted to hear them around town. Most of the artists are big, major-label ones but I really like these songs. My guilty pleasure is definitely those MTV-poppy songs by Phantom Planet and Rooney! They're just too sweet not to like.. ahh! Strange how similar those two bands sound like. The title mentions that this mix coincides with the start of classes at my college and the utter desperation that the parking situation creates. It's a madhouse on campus right now and I'm so frustrated with the hordes of people all trying to do the same thing you are. Parking takes at least 40 mins. which inevitably ends with you speed-walking to class in the intense sun and arriving to class sweaty and flustered, interrupting the professor and seeing no free seats in sight. Aaahhh.. I hope things get better soon or I may go nuts. Alright, enough venting now. You may now return to your own thoughts.

Looks like a good mix to drive around in circles too! ;) Good luck with the parking - it can be such a bitch. I especially like Placebo track.
