The soundtrack of my life...

So here it is, almost 5 am and I'm still awake. Shouldn't have slept all evening. I've been sitting here in front of my computer for about 3 hours doing pretty much nothing. I've been going through my massive mp3 collection and just randomly been listening to the music I have collected since 1996. It's more than a collection of music, it's a collection of memories. It's nothing short of amazing how music is attached to memories.

For example:

Throw on the Leftfield - Leftism (1995) album and it brings memories of driving to Blockbuster Video with one of my best friends, Cody. We rented Playstation games to burn (Phillips 2x!) copies of them for my newly modded PS1. He had recently bought his first VW Jetta and gotten a new subwoofer for it. We had the music blasting and the windows down. It was a beautiful sunny spring day in 1997. We spent the rest of the evening playing Raiden DX and drinking Mt. Dew in his parents basement. (remember that Cody?)

A completely random memory brought back to life by music.

This is the time... the time of our lives.
