Controlled Chaos (original) (raw)
Things have been bleak.
But I have hope.
I've been shot 3 times.
I've been stabbed in the neck once by myself...because a guy was trying to kill me and it was the only way I could cut the garrote from my neck.
I've drowned once and been brought back to life.
I've never had a wreck that didn't flip at least once and catch on fire.
I've been diagnosed with a brain tumor and told I had 11 months to live.
I'm still here.
Things look bad. and they may get ugly. but one thing is certain. I'm the only one that can kill me.

IF YOUR LIFE WAS A MOVIE, WHAT WOULD THE SOUNDTRACK BE?
So, here's how it works:
1. Open your library (iTunes, Winamp, Media Player, etc).
2. Put it on shuffle.
3. Press play.
4. For every question type the song that's playing.
5. When you go to a new question press the next button.
Ready? GO!
Opening Credits: Jimmy Buffett – A Pirate Looks at Forty
Waking Up: Evanescence – Going Under
Falling In Love: Ray Charles – I’ve Got a Woman
Fight Song: Jan Johnston – Unafraid (Paul Oakenfold Remix)
Breaking Up: Ray Charles – Hit the Road Jack
Getting Back Together: Jim Croce – Time in a Bottle
Getting Dressed: Frank Sinatra – One for My Baby
Life's Okay: 12 Stones - Broken
Mental Breakdown: Type O Negative – Wolf Moon
Driving: Disturbed - Stupify
Flashbacks: U2 – Van Diemen’s Land (The Edge on Vocals)
Happy Dance: Israel Kamakawiwo’ole – Somewhere Over the Rainbow
Regretting: 3 Doors Down - Love Me When I’m Gone
The training: Pink Floyd – Run Like Hell
Final Battle: Led Zepplin - Tangerine
Death Scene: Johnny Cash – Folsum Prison Blues
Ending Credits: Pachelbel – Cannon in D Major
** BTW I had to kind of cheat a little. I mean I have about 1200 damn songs on my laptop, but for some reason damn near every time I hit the Shuffle button another Ray Charles song came up, that wouldn't have been very interesting would it? I shit you not, Out of 1200 songs, Ray Charles came up no less than 10 times, so I kept hitting next until I got something else in those cases, I also bypassed the ones that just said something like "Unknown artist - track 2".
-D
'Cause everyone else is doing it and I want to be cool.

3. I'll name something we should do together.
4. I'll say something that only makes sense to you and me (or just me).

You are "Heroes"!
You've been through a tough break-up and would like
nothing better than to have that person back at
least for one day. Or you're just in a funk and
feeling very sad.
