Happy New Year!
It has been a while since we have done one of these. In order to simultaneously fill the hiatus & also keep with the Valentine's Day mix exchange tradition, this exchange will be themed appropriately. Again, think of it like fic exchange prompts, only with music, okay?
Please comment by next Saturday, January 8 if you would like to participate with the following:
I will private message everyone on Tuesday, June 1st with who they are making their mix for and the info!
Rules
-- 8 songs minimum
-- Cover art & lyric snippets are not required, but they can be a nice touch
-- Last time we did this, many wrote fic/drabbles to accompany their mixes. Similarly, this is not required, but frequently appreciated
-- Upload your mix yourself, preferably using your recipient's preferences. PM me the link and I'll pass it on. A reveal post will be up once I have them all sorted.
-- Official deadline is Wednesday, February 2, with the latest extension being Sunday, February 6 so I can put mixes up on Wednesday, February 9.

Current favorite songs: Red Hot Chili Peppers, "If;" Dierks Bentley, "Draw Me a Map;" Garbage, "Only Happy When It Rains"

A variety of characters you would enjoy mixing around: My favorite characters are Brittany, Finn, Puck, Beiste, Santana, Sue, and Mercedes, but please surprise me. I am not Will's biggest fan, nor Kurt's.
A variety (ideally... one is okay) of pairings you would enjoy mixing around: I'm really not picky as long as it doesn't involve Kurt or Will; I'd love to see what you do with the adults as well as the students. I tend to enjoy goofy/ridiculous pairings, comic relief, and I like watching the platonic relationships grow on the show perhaps even more than the romantic ones, so feel free to incorporate that as well!
Valentine's Day scenarios:
1. Sue writes an "I'm so much more awesome than you all and you know it" playlist for the staff.
2. Carl makes a sappy, doofy new-relationship mix for Emma.
3. Any of my favorite characters is single on Valentine's Day, and makes a platonic playlist dedicating songs to their friends.
4. The Cheerios make a playlist for Sue.
5. A lighthearted mix from one half of a fairly ridiculous/obscure pairing to the other.
How you would like to receive your mix (e.g., YouSendIt, email, Megaupload, Sendspace, etc.): Anything but Sendspace :)
