I saw a survey on someone's blog about how you would personally select music for a hypothetical movie of your life. The survey worked by assigning songs to all kinds of different scenes of a movie. Out of boredom I filled one out and I thought it would be interesting to see what other people would pick. Heres Mine:

Did this before, except it said 'shuffle', and I ended up getting things that were exactly the opposite of what I wanted. :lmao

Will end up (happily) doing this later, I guess.
