description:
I realized this morning that I pretty much listen to the same songs while walking to school, between classes, and on my way to work so I've decided to chronicle my morning, post leaving my room.
* The cover is of the top of campus. Back in the day, some mortuary donated those pillars, and for some reason ISU mounted them on a hill.

tracklist

1 Deerhunter : Spring Hall Convert
It is no exaggeration to say that I hate life in the morning. As I walk to the elevator (I live on the 8th floor) I need something soothing, but not something that will make me sleepy. This song does the trick.

2 Sparks : Perfume
As I leave the building, I am usually feeling a bit better. While waiting for the sign to say "walk" at the intersection towards campus, this song comes on. Its peppy, but not cheery in a way that irritates me this early.

3 Fujiya & Miyagi : Collarbone
About now, I'm walking by the library, which means I am late. I need a good beat, but nothing too abrasive as it is early and I am still grouchy. This song puts me at a good pace.

4 Queen : Don't Stop Me Now
If its Mon/Wed/Fri, then I'm on my way to Gender and Politics. If its Tue/Thur, then I'm late to Lit (ALWAYS late to this class).This song will be on as I am walking in and trying to untangle myself from my mess of headphones, large bag and assortment of layers. I am really conspicuous.

5 Murray Head : One Night in Bangkok
I do not know how this song made it onto my mp3 player, but it was always on as I left class and walked to the union building for coffee. Then, one time it didn't come on and I missed it, so now it plays everytime.

I have no time to waste before work! I need something to move and motivate me! This song gets me over to the dept. of Mass Communication, where I have a work study job.

7 Gnarls Barkley : Smiley Faces
I'm leaving work now. I'm not so down with Gnarls, but I love this song. Chances are I'm feeling much more cheery and this song will give me the optimism I need to endure my psychoanalysis and dream interpretation class.

8 The Thermals : A Pillar Of Salt
Leaving class, I'm probably annoyed. I now head over to the debate team squad room. This song helps me to release my irritation instead of projecting it onto my debate partner, haha.

11 Eric Clapton : Layla
A weird closer, I know. However, the 7 minute and 4 second version of this song is exactly how long it takes me to walk from the student union building to my door.

I've got a thing for The Thermals, though I'm with Eric below on the despising Clapton bit, looks pretty solid though. ++

Very fun mix. That Murray Head song is about the only thing he ever did that I didn't like. His own songs are pretty obscure, but worth hearing.
