Soundtrack to My Life
Ok. Prepare yourself for a multi-media presentation and a fair bit of nerdiness. Click play on the following link and then continue reading.
One of the best choices of my life was whipping out my old ipod nano for the long(est roadtrip of my life) down to Sardinia. I had forgotten how much music I had on there that wasn't on my phone--particularly in the soundtrack genre. I plugged in and drifted off for the first half of the drive (thanks to some German version of Dramamine). When I woke up it was dark outside and we had reached the Swiss Alps. This song was playing, and I looked out the window and watched the shadowy outlines of the mountains surrounding me. I looked down into a valley and it was full of lights. You might say that they were just normal city lights, but I'm pretty sure it was actually the lit-up trees of an elf community. I could be wrong, but I don't think so. I thought to myself: how cool is my life? Hello? Sigh. I'm pretty much a member of the Fellowship. More or less. You may now either finish listening to the song and visualizing (or dancing, or meditating or whatever) or stop it. But before you read any more start the next link.
The road went ever on and on, and just as this song began to greet my ears we rounded a corner and found Rohan. A ways up the mountain was a lone structure. It was an old castley building with lights pointed on it so that it stood out burning white against the black mountain background as its red flag waved proudly from where there should have been a roof, but I don't know that there is anymore. Who says life isn't as good as a movie? I manage to fit in probably every genre at some point or another, and I even have my own soundtrack.
