Soundtrack to My Life-Response

"Have I Told You Lately That I Love You?"
Van Morrison
I choose this song because we should tell the important people in our life that we love them every day.

"Live Like You Were Dying"
Tim McGraw
I choose this song because this is the motto I try to live by.

"Butterfly Kisses"
Bob Carlisle
This song is apart of my life because I am going to dance with my father at my wedding to this song.

"Just Dance"
Lady Gaga
Dancing makes everything feel better :)

"You Are Loved"
Josh Groban
Sung at my freshman year varsity night live and was very impressed!

"Forro e Paixao"
Trio Virgulino
My friend Debora, who is from Brazil, got me hooked on this music and makes me want to learn how to really dance.

"Clair du Lune"
Piano
I played for 11 years and was never that great but this song made me want to play the piano for that long.

"The Circle of Life"
The Lion King
My favorite disney movie...EVER. I wish I could sing well to it!

I feel that this mix shows that I am a sensitive, calm person who likes to have fun in life. This soundtrack shows that I enjoys listening to different kinds of music and am open to listening to new things. I do not think that it necessarily puts me into a subculture.

I feel that if a person listened to my music selection that they my be able to figure somethings out about me. But I would rather them judge me on who I am not the music I listen too. A person we be able to see that I try to live my day without regrets, to have fun, and be happen. But I do not think that they would be able to tell the smaller details of who I am.

When we were to judge someone based on their songs I think I was not accurate at all. This activity was hard for me because I could not judge who they were just based on the music they listened to.

When another student in our class me by my music, the student was pretty dead on. She got my gender right and concluded that I would go out on the weekends but that I could also have fun staying in. The student also concluded that I enjoy spending time with my family and friends. The student even figured out what I would normally be wearing on a day to day basis. The only comment that the student made that was incorrect was that I could possibly be involved in church groups. I am not in a church group although my mother wants me to be.

I really enjoyed this activity. But it was very hard for me to judge a person solely on there music.
