Day 12 - A song from a band you hateThis one was hard. I obviously couldn't just go through my music collection and pick out a song, because why would I have a band I hate in my list? So I just started thinking of bands that are popular but that I've never really jumped on board with. The band I came up with never really grabbed me at all, and I ( Read more... )

Day 11 - A song from your favorite bandThis was hard as I never have really pegged just ONE band as my favourite. U2 is definitely one of my most enjoyed bands with some longevity [not like "Oh I LOVE this band" and then two years later you never listen to them anymore]. Coldplay is probably up there, too, as I usually adore everything they put out ( Read more... )

Wooaah I'm 30% of the way through this! This is amazing! I usually am flailing around this point. Actually it's a lot of fun. Music is such a daily part of my life and I'm having a blast both mentally and physically going through my music collection and pinpointing which exact songs I associate with certain things.

When I moved to Victoria I found a place that was relatively close to work and with roommates because I wanted to be sure of my income/budget before looking at a place of my own.

Day 08 - A song that you know all the words toHmmm. There are plenty of songs that I know all of the words to, but I suppose I'll just post one. I watched the Juno Awards this year [the Canadian Grammy's, for those who don't know] and they paid tribute to Shania Twain. Ahh, Shania. The first family that I started babysitting for on a regular basis ( Read more... )

Whoops, time for some catch up. I put in 38 hours of work over the last four days, spent one night "out on the town" [sober but I still paid for it dearly the next day after only five hours of sleep] and spent another night making quinoa greek salad [one of my new favourite things] and Saskatoon berry tarts before passing out. So needless to say, ( Read more... )

Day 3 - A song that makes you happy ( Read more... )

Day 2 - Your least favourite song

This song may SOUND kind of catchy but the lyrics bother me to no end. Especially the fact that it gets major radio play where many young folk are going to hear it. "Chains and whips excite me"? Come on. Really? It just makes me cringe. Sigh.

Day 01 - Your favourite song:

Matthew Good Band - Giant
I don't know why, it's just always been a song that I can listen to over and over.
"Your teeth feel you smiling
a better, happier you".
