Say won't you Say

Here I go again

So glad to be back in San Marcos. Its weird that a place I had never even been as of 3 years ago can feel so much like home to me now. I had a great time visiting with family and friends at home, and I love Dallas, but I'm ready to get back into the groove of things here. I know thes rest of this semester is going to fly by, and I feel like I still have so much stuff to do for school before its all said and done!

I have been carefully paying attention to what my "Sarah Mclachlan Theory" could be and I noticed a couple of trends in my music listening patterns. Mine is more related to what mood or attitude I am in at that moment, what time of day it is, and where I am, as to what sort of music I crave over and over again during these moments. In driving to and from Dallas and San Marcos I have to play Mark Broussard's Carcencro album and Jamie Cullum's Twentysomething album both all the way through at least once, sometimes more than once. When I am feeling insecure or distraught/ discontent about things I have to play any and every Watermark cd and/or any Shane and Shane. When I am feeling so great about being a girl and just loving life in general I have to listen to Aretha Franklin, Al Green, Whitney Houston, Etta James and Marvin Gaye. When I am in "I want a boyfriend mode" I gotta pop in Caleb Carruth song #5, Bethany Dillon also song #5, anything Michelle Branch or Vanessa Carlton and also Joss Stone. to just think and not sing along , but rather just enjoy the music I gotta have Dave Matthews Band Busted Stuff album.
So basically I don't have one defining artist that I find myself constantly returning to, but as circumstances change that could all continue to change. Though this has little or no significance to my life, I just find it so interesting the impact that music can have in a crucial moment, or in a romantic moment, or in a moment of overwhelming Joy and excitement. I would love to have a soundtrack of my life. In certain moments I when I am alone or in interractions with someone I sometimes think, " If this was a movie or tv show, what song would be playing in the background at that very moment to enhance the emotions even further!?" ~Now that would be an interesting CD, Amanda Morrison~The Soundtrack. hahhaaha
