Packing Music

Today was the weekend that me and hundreds of other college kids leases were up in west campus.  My dad hired movers, but I had the pleasure of packing my entire apartment by myself.  2 hours into just packing the shoes from my closet I decided I need some music to help ease my mind and make it seem like I was speeding up the process.  I ran into a couple of problems, first of course I don't have any music on my iTunes, secondly I don't have a FM/AM radio in my apartment(but who does now day.)  I decided to give Pandora a shot on my iPhone.  Then I was faced with the question of what packing music I wanted to listen to.  I made my decision by being sub consciously influenced from my friend who came I was riding with earlier and she had in the new Beyonce CD.  Instead of Beyonce I decided to bring it back a bit and go with Destiny's Child.  As soon as I made it back to the closet and began putting another pair of shoes in the box, the first song on the station was "Survivor."  This immediately gave me a very vivid flash back to 6th grade to me with 2 of my best friends wearing camo clothes, "war paint" under our eyes, crawling on the stage at our annual 6th grade talent show.  I was a Destiny's child fanatic.  I loved Kelly, I was heartbroken when the group split.  I think I have a special Houston connection with Destiny's Child.  Their music sure did speed up the packing process along except for the spontaneous dance breaks.
