when i was in london, i was listening to jay-z's black album on repeat pretty much constantly. and then i broke my ipod and started to go a little crazy. but while it lasted, it felt so appropriate.
my backup song (album, actually) would be the lion king soundtrack for when i was in korea between the 3rd and 4th grade. the movie came out in the states while we were there, so i was able to buy the soundtrack but i wasn't able to actually see the movie until after we got back. i listened to that audio cassette back to front over and over and i don't think i've ever told anyone this, but i actually pieced together my own version of the plot based solely on the soundtrack and wild conjecture. of course i was way off (for some reason i thought scar and zazu were the same character), but that album holds a special place in my heart just because it's associated with that trip for me.
