So I’m sitting at my desk, killing time and a thought popped in my head (yes, surprising!). I don’t think I can really know someone until I peer at their iPod. Sounds a bit odd, but if you think about it you can learn a lot about someone by scanning their playlist…really.
I thought I’d let you all get to know me a bit better via this fun little game. I randomly scanned my iPod to fill in the fields below, by the end of it you’ll apparently have my biopic in the form of music.
Now I must warn you, I do have a very diverse array of music on my ‘Pod, judge all you want, laugh it up even, but I hope you’re laughing at yourself too when you catch yourself singing that catchy tune.
Opening Credits: So Here We Are – Bloc Party - Good, mellow beat that I can totally see fitting for the opening credits, not too sure if the words work all that well though.
Waking Up: Drain the Blood – The Distillers – Now this doesn’t work at all…for me anyways. I do like this song though.
First Day At School: Club Foot – Kasabian – Maybe if it was just the beat and the background singing and I was an Upper Easter Sider in Gossip Girl.
Falling In Love: Get Down – Backstreet Boys – Maybe if I was 13 again and falling in love with Nick Carter (like I did when I first saw the video for this song).
Breaking Up: Thnks fr th Mmrs – Fall Out Boy – Is it some sort of ironic thing to remove all of the vowels in the song title? Anyways, songs serves its purpose at this point in the biopic.
Prom: Why Can’t I? - Liz Phair – Ohhh…how exciting. At this point, I think I’m at the prom with a boy but want to be with another one, the one I love.
Life’s OK: Pin – Yeah Yeah Yeahs – According to this song, life’s ok…when I’m sleeping with people.
Breakdown: Electric Feel - MGMT – Not quite.
Driving: Du Matin Jusqu’au Soir – Edith Piaf – Ohhh…driving in France.
Flashback: Seductress of Bums – The Raveonettes – Flashing back to the days when Life was OK.
Getting Back Together: This Love – Maroon 5 – Kind of the opposite of what is supposed to be happening.
Wedding: Every Part of Me – Sam Roberts – Not first dance material.
Sex Scene: Fantasy – Mariah Carey – Lacks passion, but it’s a sweet, sweet fantasy, baby.
Birth of Child: Pour Some Sugar on Me – Def Leppard – I think it’s this song that leads to conception of said child.
Final Battle: Waiting for Tonight – Jlo – Don’t let this sexiness of this song fool you because I’ve been waiting for tonight to kick your butt with the same Jlo glow.
Funeral Song: Four to the Floor – Starsailor – Promoting life, not death.
Dance Sequence: Simple Kind of Life – No Doubt – This is where I realize that I can have a simple kind of life and just dance the rest of my life away (although I’m dead now? Or was that my nemesis that died?).
End Credits: Lucky Star – Madonna – And they lived happily ever after…unless I’m the one that died.
Le fin.

Last night, my cousin, Cherry Mary Muffin (a nickname my Dad gave her as a child), gave me a call (I didn’t have the heart to tell her I was asleep when she called). We managed to have an entire conversation quoting our favourite commercials (specifically infomericals). Here’s a little taste of what was said:
Phew. Thank goodness I listened to my inner food devil and gave into a piece of bread smothered with Nutella last night. Yesterday was
