this is not my thesis
But now that it's done, I'll go work on my thesis. I promise.
IF YOUR LIFE WAS A MOVIE, WHAT WOULD THE 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. Don't lie and try to pretend you're cool.
Opening Credits: "Improper Dancing" by Electric Six
This is gonna be a good movie, huh?
Waking Up: "The Big Issue" by Chumbawamba
I can see this. "She's been born into the wrong time / She keeps nonsense on her mind / She's a poet, she's a builder / She's as bored as bored can be."
First Day At School: "New Toys" by Cooper Temple Clause
What, is my school full of vampires or something? This is a really grim song for a first day.
Falling In Love: "Ki ni Naru Aitsu" from CCS
BWEEEE. *^_^* This is too perfect. The title is essentially "That Girl I Can't Ignore" and I want to marry the boy who sings it. Maybe it's a sign...
Fight Song: "Fumble" by Architecture in Helsinki
So, this must be the kind of fight you'd see in "Napoleon Dynamite" or something. Jousting on unicycles, or something.
Breaking Up: "Settle" by The Headstones
"I'd rather settle for something I don't believe in / Then sit hear listening to any more of your chitchat" ...guess I'm the dumper, then.
Life: "Keep On the Sunny Side" from O Brother, Where Art Thou?
YAAAAAY.
Mental Breakdown: "Bone of Contention" by Spirit of the West
"You pull your wire / They stack the pyre / We light the Fire / I'm gonna burn the playhouse down."
Driving: "You Wear the Sun" by The Delays
I must be driving down a tree-lined avenue dappled by golden afternoon light.
Flashback: "I Disappear" by The Faint
What the jesus kind of a flashback is it? A club scene? Am I covered in blood and about to kick some ass?
Getting back together: "Allergic (To Thoughts of Mother Earth)" by Placebo
I hope this is just a scene from the middle of the movie, when I get back together with someone who's no good for me, but LATER in the film I come to my senses and find my true love or something. Because if this is it, well...that's a little worrisome. I don't think Placebo has ever written a song which I could comfortably "get back together" to.
Wedding: "Ruby Rap" from The Fifth Element.
WHAT. WHAT. I can't even fathom what this means for my wedding. Except to hope that it will be ministered by Chris Tucker.
Birth of Child: "Paper Bag" by Very Secretary
A little melancholy, but still sweet.
Final Battle: "This Fire" by Franz Ferdinand.
HELL YEAH.
Funeral Song: "Where Is My Mind" covered by Placebo
Hah. Interesting.
Final Credits: "Sister Savior" by The Rapture.
We go out with a proto-disco extravaganza. Yesss.
