I'm nearly always listening to music, and even when I'm not I tend to hear it in my mind. Most moments in my life have a song attached, which is no coincidence considering I make it a point to always have some music playing somewhere at all times, even if it's solely in my subconcious.

When I wake up in the morning one of the first things I ponder is what song to listen to, the first song I'll hear that might go as far as to set the pattern for the rest of my day. If I don't choose the song it often ends up leaving me kind of agitated, that is, if my little brother wakes me up with some obnoxious and loud music of his preference.

Some days I wake up and think that a song like "Change the World" by Eric Clapton would be dreamy.. I used to listen to it quite often as I sipped cold orange juice and let my tired little eyes adjust to sunlight. Sometimes I listen to loud abusive punk type stuff, depending on my mood.

Music, and trees.. where I'd be without them I haven't the slightest clue, but I hope I never have to find out.
