My penpal
So did you know that Ii have a penpal? She's intirely the best thing ever. Her name is Pippin and she's 11. I am currently making her a CD Trilogy of music based on her likes and my likes and it came to be the oddest compilation i have made yet. I have done this for I don't know HOW many people and I have never been so nervous as to what the response to this one will be.
The CDs are grouped into 3 sections but I haven't thought of titles. I was thinking moods maybe, but I am not sure. I think the hardest thing to do was pick songs that didnt have swearing in it. There are a lot of incredibly amazing songs that I wish that I could put on there but had sexual connotations and all that so I couldn't put those ones on there either. I finally came up with what I hope she will like. hope.
oh and shes obsessed with lord of the rings - which is why I put a incredibly horrible remix of Legolas saying "They're taking the Hobbits to Isenguard" in there. I came across it completely by chance...and almost died.
