If your life was a movie, what would the soundtrack be? November 12, 2008

Stolen, as most entertaining survey things are, from Jen’s facebook. And I’ll fill you in on more interesting England-y things soon. Promise. This is just more fun, provided my iTunes opens in the next century.

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…
7. When you’re finished tag some other people to do it!
