Time-waster (borrowed from Sarah)
If your life were 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 plays
5. When you go to a new question, press the next button
6. Don't lie and try to pretend you're cool...
OPENING CREDITS: We've Been Had -- The Walkmen
WAKING UP: The Shins -- Flake Music
FIRST DAY OF SCHOOL: Get In or Get Out -- Hot Hot Heat
FALLING IN LOVE: Never Ending Math Equation -- Modest Mouse
FIGHT SONG: Lit Up -- The National
BREAKING UP: Wishbone -- Architecture in Helsinki
PROM: The Kids are Alright -- The Who
LIFE: Untitled 4 -- Sigur Ros
MENTAL BREAKDOWN: Scissor Paper Rock -- Architecture in Helsinki
DRIVING: Friend of Mine -- The National
FLASHBACK: Measuring Cups -- Andrew Bird
WEDDING: Love and Death -- The Stills
BIRTH OF CHILD: Transatlanticism -- Death Cab for Cutie
FINAL BATTLE: Lovers in a Dangerous Time -- Barenaked Ladies
DEATH SCENE: Soul Meets Body -- Death Cab for Cutie
FUNERAL SONG: Penny Lane -- The Beatles
END CREDITS: Density -- Sam Prekop
Hmm, well I was hoping that this would serendipitously come up with a coherent soundtrack but somehow I don't think that Barenaked Ladies is fit for a final battle, nor is "Love and Death" a wedding song (unless my life is going to be more depressing than I thought).

So... I won an award at the architecture student show. Yep, pretty pleased about that.

Very Sad
My cat Jesse that I've had since kindergarten apparently has a tumor in her jaw. I noticed it when I went home this past weekend and a trip to the vet identified it as a tumor. So... this means my cat's dying and I don't know how much longer she'll be around. I'm really sad.
