Finals period is here. Though this means that I am spending a huge proportion of time studying, it also means I am spending an even greater proportion of time than normal procrastinating. Today this quest for procrastination led me to my ipod search bar and I learned some very interesting, if not at all surprising, things.
Songs on my ipod that have the following words in their titles:
Love - 451 songs
Happy - 48 songs
Sleep - 52 songs
Free - 35 songs (including A Distorted Reality is now a Necessity to be Free, by Elliott Smith. I'll let you make the law school link on your own)
Life - 117 songs
Sex - 25 songs
Law - 5 songs (but one is called Sex Laws... so it might get canceled out)
Test - 1 song
Fail - 6 songs
Corporate - 1 song (Regina Spektor's The Ghost of Corporate Future - AKA death and my final on Tuesday)
Shareholder - 1 song (Maria Taylor's One for the Shareholder - random, right? I definitely did not expect any song titles to include this word!)
Study - 0 SONGS!!!!
Notice how these are organized by theme? And notice how many, MANY more artists are inspired by things like love.. happiness.. and even sleep than law, finals, and corporations? WEIRD. Who would have guessed, right?
Also of note: the word Elephant appears in 8 song titles. EIGHT. I own more songs about elephants than about law. I don't even know what that means but I can bet you I will spend more time pondering the implications of this statistic than studying for this awful exam.
