Bulletproof

It was the first day of classes at uni, and I'm so excited about this semesters subjects, but I'm already feeling the overwhelming workload. That is the only downside to uni: the excessive homework, essays and etc. However, I think I found the perfect song to tackle the slight bewilderment that all uni students must be feeling with the new subjects, new rooms, new subject guides and new systems of doing things. And that is La Roux's 'Bulletproof'

It is a motivational song that makes you feel as if you can tackle anything that comes your way (as it implies in the title, of being bullet proof). It is quite rightly a popular song, which came out in 2009- I for some reason thought it was a much more recent song, but I guess that just shows how time flies by so quickly, that sometimes I feel like the 2000's were last yearn, when really this song is six years old! I feel old now!

If you were to look at the lyrics, you can easily pretend that the person being addressed is actually all stresses and workloads that uni entails. Or maybe that is just me, because this year, I know it's going to be even more intense when it comes to my studies, so this is definitely going to become one of my 'determination songs', because (okay, get ready for the ultra corny line) "I'll be bulletproof" (yep, it was a predictable lyric to throw in- sorry if I made you groan)
