My Life in Music

I've already said that music is a big part of my life. Certain songs act as a sort of spark to times in my life. It's like looking at Oscar Wilde's play "Our Town" and in a minute I relive the last month of my senior year of high school. Or Cormac Mcarthy's book The Road. Whenever I see that book sitting on my shelf I think of the three days I spent in my bed reading it straight through. I literally didn't move. I skipped homework, church and school in order to just sit and read that book. Songs are the same way. Whenever I hear Taylor Swift's song "Teardrops on My Guitar" I smile at the now inconsequential, but at the time life-shattering, memories from high school crushes. Oh jeez.

One of my favorite questions to ask people is "What three songs describe your life right now?" Today I asked myself that question, and here is my answer.

School and work.

"Start a Band" by Brad Paisley and Keith Urban

I wouldn't start a band though. I'd start a bakery/cafe, and I would love it!

Love

"Gonna Get Over You" by Sara Bareilles

The lyrics are the best part. Well, the last 30 seconds is actually the best :)

I found my Someday, and it felt good. (minute 3:08)

Life in General

"Raise Your Glass" by P!nk

She rhymes like me..."don't be fancy, just get dancey" Haha

I raise my glass to Life.
