A mix CD about the last 2 1/3 (or 10) years of my life....

Mai 29 2006, 13h30

Sometimes I make mix CDs just for the hell of it. Just to have songs I like in a certain order (even if I all ready have them in a different order on five other CDs). Sometimes I make a mix CD with a theme that isn't that apparent upon first listen. Sometimes I make mix CDs as "soundtracks."

This is a soundtrack. One to the past two years, four months of my life. (Or ten years-- depends on how you look at it.) I made it because I needed to have these songs in this order. I made copies for my two best friends, as a token of appreciation (I made them read a long, boring, somewhat depressing written version of the events these songs are supposed to represent).

This isn't one of those mix CDs I made to sound good. It was made because the lyrics of the song relate to the events... That's why there are so many bad songs on here.

21. The Start of Something

I think that some of these tracks add humour to the event(s) they describe. Which is good, because I about depressed one of my friends to death with the story.

    Doesn't it make you sad when your friends make mix CDs that really they just went through their iTunes library and made an alphabetical playlist and called it a mix? It sure makes me sad, since I so infrequently make mix CDs but when I do, I put a lot of effort into the order of songs.

    (I got here through the Voxtrot page, sorry for being so random, heh)

    I got here through the Voxtrot page as well. I did a similar thing for my girlfriend I think that it really helps explain events in a different way. Make s things easier to understand sometimes...
