Friday Five for May 12, 2006
It's Friday Five time!
This week's thefridayfive set were suggested by deutschesilke
If you knew you were going to die on at specific day at a specific time, what's...
1. the last song you would listen to?
I would want to hear either Home by Depeche Mode or Let Go by Frou Frou. Obviously, this would be my answer if I were to die today. Who knows what songs I'd want to hear in 10, 15, 30 years. I'd probably make a soundtrack to listen to in the last hour before I pass. And knowing me, I'd put that soundtrack on random and really wouldn't know which song would truly be the last.
2. book you would read?
I'd want to read the Dark Tower series all over again. I know that's kind of cheating cause there's seven books. But if I could at least make it through Gunslinger before I passed, I'd be content. Then again, since I knew when I'd die, I'd start the series early enough so I'd finish book 7 right before I died. It'd be a fitting end to my life, to think I might be living like Roland.
3. person you would talk to?
Again, this would be right now and not in many years. I'd want to talk to my mum and tell her how much I love her and how grateful I am for all the times she's been there. There's a lot of people I'd want to say good bye to but for the very last person, she'd be it. Of course, depending on how far into the future this is I might prefer to talk to my husband or children. But I don't have either right now, so mum it is.
4. food you would eat?
Tiramisu. Hands down. I might want real food but if I'm going to die, I want to die with the taste of Tiramisu on my tongue.
5. goal you would accomplish?
Well, if I died today, the goal I'd accomplish is finally being happy. But if I had time to accomplish something, I'd want to finish school. But that would take at least 4 years, so again, kind of cheating. Especially since there's no guarantee I'd actually finish before I died. After all, I know I'm about to die, it might mess up my school work. So alternately, I'd probably want to have something (substantial) published. An autobiography of sorts. Something I could show the world and give them a glimpse into my life. If I knew right when I'd die, I'd start writing it now and hope to be done by then.
