New Project: Soundtrack of My Brain

Maybe it’s because I was feeling particularly in love –maybe it’s because she’s on the cover of the March ELLE, which I just finished flipping through– but yesterday I could NOT GET Katy Perry’s “Teenage Dream” out of my head. It got so bad that I pulled out the mix CD I have it on (gift from a friend) so that I could blare it while I drove down the interstate to my tutoring session for The Wren’s Nest KIPP SCRIBES program. And boy, did I blare it. Multiple times.

Which made me think about all the other songs that are continuously going through my head. Every morning, pretty much, as soon as I get up, I’ve got some sort of soundtrack playing, and what my brain jukebox comes up with is often a surprise. So I decided to start keeping track. From now on, I’m keeping a notepad by my bed so that as soon as I wake up I can write down the song that’s in my head. Every week, here in my blog, I’ll post the results.

I realize this may be either very enlightening or very embarrassing. We’ll see how it goes though, eh?
