Reflecting back at you someone that you don't know

I Might Never Be The Person Who....

Volantarily goes camping.
Listens to hip hop.
Takes the cyanide pill.
Has a natural birth.
Eats a healthy breakfast.
Keeps people's phone numbers.
Always has her mobile.
Forgets her ipod.
Always does what's right.

Lives forever.

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 your cool... and alot of the songs fit with the setting.

to melt the street beneath your feet.

Falling In Love:

there’s still a little bit of your face i haven't kissed
you step a little closer each day
and I can´t see what´s going on

At my complete lack of grace.
But I could not recall
A more perfect fall
Cause when I looked up into your eyes
It didn't hurt at all.


Mental Breakdown:
Lover I Don't Have To Love- Bright Eyes
Bad actors with bad habits
Some sad singers they just play tragic
And the phone's ringing and the van's leaving
Let's just keep touching; let's just keep... keep singing...


Driving:
I Know I Know I Know-Tegan and Sara
the weather is changing and breaking my stride
I know I know I know, it's just this day
house after house, just like car after car
you see club after club and it all seems so far

This is what you get, this is what you get
This is what you get, when you mess with us

We should have run, I would go with you anywhere
I should have kissed you by the water

I still remember

Halo- Haley James Scott
I never promised you a ray of light,
I never promised there'd be sunshine everyday,
I give you everything I have, the good, the bad.

End Credits:
Bittersweet Symphony - Oasis
Well I never pray
But tonight I'm on my knees yeah
I need to hear some sounds that recognize the pain in me, yeah
I let the melody shine, let it cleanse my mind, I feel free now
