Ho dee hum. HO DEE HUM!

Was that.....TAYLOR SWIFT....Olivia detected?! Hmmm. New Romantics, 1989... She'd taken time to enjoy the song before taking her seat, humming along to the lyrics. There were several songs from the artist on her personal playlist. Clean, Wildest Dreams, Ours.... Liv liked her stuff mostly because the woman had written all of her own material. It was just cooler when someone was writing from their own personal experiences. It was more relatable.

To be honest, Olivia was SO New Romantics right now. Instead of putting a smile on her face, it only caused the blonde to be that much more thoughtful. It reminded her of things that needed to be done. Made them more difficult to ignore... Sigh. Personal lives could be messy. Being A GIRL was messy. Especially a teenage one. Geezus, she was so over herself. On a spiritual level at this point.

Nodding general greetings at her classmates, she eventually snagged the place next to Dora. Hello, Gryffindor Champ. Olivia hadn't gotten the chance to congratulate her or Levi... and parties... for reasons, made her very uncomfortable. They were getting started, so she didn't say anything right away. Just offered a sweet smile. Solidarity.

The backdrop of this music was very nice, she had to admit.

"They were American, yes...but also highly successful? Lots of records sold, and award trophies won. I think it would be safe to say they were pioneers of their genres, maybe?" Apparently that was a huge deal in the music industry. Winning those trophies. Sure, she'd won loads of them for dance, but it was hard to tell if that was different? She wasn't making millions...as they had. In her experience, trophies didn't mean a thing. "Thanks for the jams today." As an afterthought.

Speaking of American culture, Liv wondered what their Muggle Studies lessons were call. Were they No-Maj Studies? That seemed so strange to her head. The words didn't flow as nice.
