Backlog of memes...
I have a bad habit of filling these out and failing to post them. So, updated and finally posting....
1. Snurched from sazzat.
If your life was a movie, what would your soundtrack be?
So, here's how it works:
1. Open your library (iTunes, Winamp, Media Player, iPod, etc)
2. Put it on shuffle
3. Press play
4. For every question, type the song that's playing
5. When you go to a new question, press the next button
6. No cheating!
Opening Credits: Tegan and Sara- Soil Soil
‘… Oh and I'm feeling directionless yes
But that's to be expected and I know that best
And in creeps the morning and another day's lost
You've just written wondering and I reply fast
All you need to save me
Call and I'll be curled on the floor hiding out from it all...’
How perfect. I feel like I'm lost and don't know where to go. And all the days I've wasted, lying around and doing nothing because nothing seems worthwhile anymore. I love the last line. Hiding out from it all- that sums me up perfectly. Damn, I like this song so much more now that I've actually looked up the lyrics.
Waking Up: Elisa- Rainbow
‘…when we’ll wake up, the morning rain will wash away our pain
'coz it never began for us, it’ll never end for us…’
First Day At School: Enya- Cursum Perficio
Sounds all dark, moody and dramatic. Perfect, really.
Falling In Love: Barlow Girl- Walked Away
'She walked away, couldn't say why she was leaving
She walked away, she left all she had believed in...'
Okayyy. My love life isn’t any better in song than it is in RL.
Fight Song: Aerosmith- Dude (LOOKS LIKE A LADY)
Omfg, hee! I wanna start a fight with someone now, using that song for inspiration. *giggles*
Breaking Up: Barlow Girl- Porcelain
‘…broken heart, one more time, pick yourself up
Broken pieces, in your hands, wonder how you’ll make it whole
You know, you pray…this can’t be the way
You cry, you say…something’s gotta change
And mend this porcelain heart of mine…’
Prom: Amanda Ghost- Silver Lining
‘…scared of the things that people say
Knowing my confidence might fade
I feel the world's weight upon my breaking back
I see uncertainty and the visible crack
Silver lining, I bathe in your light
I'll always believe in your place in my life
Silver lining, I know that I'm right
I'll always believe in your right to shine…’
Not really appropriate to a prom, but a lovely song.
Life: Bic Runga- Blue blue heart
‘…so you said you were leaving but I don't feel a thing at all,
Til the ghost of your memory beats drums down every hall
…something quite extraordinary - I don't feel a thing at all.
People come for miles to see the girl with the blue, blue heart.
Find us down on memory street. How long since you've been gone? (Already gone)
Like some forgotten dream, pinned to my blue, blue heart (Already gone).
If I loved you endlessly how could we be wrong? Where did we go wrong?’
Hmm, this is uncanny. Quite accurate. I always love the people that end up leaving me behind.
Mental Breakdown: Bic Runga- Gravity
‘Say my name aloud and make it new and I promise you what I can
I forget myself when I’m with you, please remind me of who I am…’
Beautiful beautiful song. Not appropriate for the theme, but oh, so sweet.
Driving: Lifehouse- Hanging by a moment
Flashback: The Veronicas- Take me on the floor
Getting back together: Kate Bush- Running up that hill
Wedding: Goldfrapp- Let it take you
Birth of Child: Aqualung- Outside
This is UNBELIEVABLY appropriate- for the chorus, anyway.
‘Baby, don’t you stay there on the inside
Together, we can make it on the outside
You and me on the outside…’
LMFAO. ;)
Final Battle: Vid of Mary’s dance scene in ‘Sneakers’ to Aretha Franklin’s Chain of Fools
Heh.
Death Scene: Kate Miller-Heidke- Words
Funeral Song: Avril Lavigne- Forgotten
‘I’m giving up on everything because you messed me up
Don’t know how much you screwed it up
You never listened, that’s just too bad
Because I’m moving on, I won’t forget you were the one that was wrong
I know I need to step up and be strong…’
End Credits: Aly & AJ- ‘Chemicals React’
2. Snurched from caramelapples.
Oh my gods, I adore this site:

Enter your name, and discover things you never knew about yourself…
Awe-inspiring things about me:
We live in an expanding universe. All of it is trying to get away from borg_princess.

Ghosts are actually caused by borg_princess killing people faster than Death can process them.
The phrase 'dead ringer' refers to someone who sits behind borg_princess in a movie theater and forgets to turn their cell phone off.
borg_princess doesn't read books. She stares them down until she gets the information she wants.
borg_princess can kill two stones with one bird.

According to the Encyclopedia Brittanica, the Native American "Trail of Tears" has been redefined as anywhere that borg_princess walks.
Most people know that Descarte said, "I think, therefore I am." What most people don't know is that that quote continues, "...afraid of borg_princess."
