La La Me Me

Feeling like I haven’t written anything in awhile, but still too worn out from my cold and a crazy work week (does trying to meet a last minute IRB deadline sound familiar to anyone?) to write anything creative. So to entertain you, I did this fun meme that I saw on hula seventy’s blog awhile ago…

If your life were a soundtrack, what would the music be?

Here’s how it works:
1. Open your library (iTunes, winamp, media player, iPod)
2. Put it on shuffle
3. Press play
4. For every question, type the song that’s playing
5. New question– press the next button
6. Don’t lie and try to pretend you’re cool
