Happy Valentine’s Day, everyone! Hopefully you have interesting plans for the day, whether it be stuffing your face with chocolates (awesome) or spending time with a loved one (which I guess is awesome as well). Regardless, I know you’ll be listening to music! According to a survey in the UK, 60% (of approx. 1000 people who were surveyed, between the ages of 15-24) of people would rather go without sex for a week than go without music. You’re damn right. Which one would you choose? (Music, obviously…wait. Sex. I’m confused now) Read more here.
