The Soundtrack of My Life
My not-so-secret dream in life is to have background music following me around all the time. Just in case my super interesting life is ever turned into the next blockbuster, I'm already prepared with the appropriate soundtrack. Each of the songs both somewhat represent that time in my life (either by lyrics, title or association) and was also popular during that general timeframe. Well, for the most part--I don't really remember my birth, I just had to pick something appropriate. Two things for you to comment on: What would be on YOUR soundtrack? and (more importantly) What should the name of my movie be?
