Feeling terrible, nervous and VERY exhausted.. We just finished this huge semester-project at my uni and damn it took all life out of me. All these frustrations and sleepless nights.. I don't eat at all, and I look like a huge mess. Tomorrow we are going to present the project and I really have to pass. I simply cannot handle doing this again. The worst thing is, Im not even proud of it. We wrote 140+ pages but i still have a feeling we could have done way better My confidence is at a huge low. Thank god, it's christmas soon. I can't wait to see my family again and just relax for a few days I believe in you! Tomorrow will be a good day and all the hard work will pay off! And hopfully, christmas will more than make up for the loss of appetite.

To all who is curious we decided to host the ultimate Avril Lavigne Rating even though new music (TMIO) was on its way. Because its been more than a year since the last rating and TMIO would be so fresh that it would/could've effected the results. TMIO and all the HAW songs will be included next year

Enough. Every one just STOP.
If you like or even love TMIO - that is wonderful! Avril is likley thrilled you do. If you do not like it, it is totally cool. It's just a song. You don't have to play it.
There is absolutely NO point in calling eachother out. To discuss and debate is one thing, but to be rude and disrespectful towards eachother has no place in this world.
I don't care who quoted whom or who started what. Be a decent human and be civil.
I'm so tired of people calling out eachother, Bandaids and everything. The internet in general has gotten fairly whiney about everything.
You talk about wanting Avril to be more mature. Then maybe it's time you all do the same.

Album concept - On this new album I felt very stripped down like I am baring it all for my fans which was the inspiration behind the album cover
The album described in 3 words
- Empowering Strong Vocals
Avril's favorites besides HAW and TMIO, are Birdie, I Fell In Love With The Devil and Warrior!
She wrote Birdie about a time in her life when I was feeling locked up in a cage
She loved producing a few songs on the new album! They’re very personal to her
Dumb Blonde is the most up tempo song on the album Dumb Blonde is about not being stereotyped by the way that you look. Proving your worth. And it’s ok to be strong as a woman #NoToMisogyny
“I Fell In Love With The Devil” is her favorite because she wrote it by herself and produced it. co produced by Chris Baseford
It Was In Me is a song about tuning to God and turning within. Written by Lauren Christy and Avril. "It’s sooooooo GOOD"
All of these songs were written after Lyme she been working on the album since 2016
one of the most personal albums of her career
How did you decide to make Tell Me It's Over a single? Do you ask your friend's opinion?
It was a lot of people’s favorite. I do ask for friends’ opinions. Birdie is also a standout to everyone who has heard the music
she feels like all songs could be the singles more music videos coming

Anyone who checked her website store yet? What is a pop Socket?? They sell it with the album. I like the mug and socks very much but it’s mug with album or socks with album... the whole bundle is way too expensive tho 😅 A pop socket is a "handle" to put on the back of your phone to make it easier to hold it etc It is a bit to expensive with the shipping .. so I'll wait for it to come in stores here.
