Music&Books of my life

Year 1&2- The Winnie the Pooh theme song deffinetly goes along with my first years because The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh was my absolute favorite movie when I was younger. I watched it over and over and somehow, I never got bored. I would sing along to the theme song. My favorite part was when he blew the butterfly off his nose. It made me laugh every time. Year 3&4- “Dancing Queen” by ABBA. Describes this part of my life perfectly. I was always a quiet kid, but I loved to sing and dance. At this time in your life, you have no worries, and life’s great. I had a new baby brother at this age and I was always happy and excited about everything. I think ABBA’s song captures this idea of a carefree life perfectly. Year 5- I started preschool when I was five. I didn’t really have too much trouble without my parents around. However, I would want my mom when I got in trouble, or something. The Kissing Hand by Audrey Penn helped me through those moments. The story was about a little raccoon preparing for his first day of school. He didn’t want to leave his mom but she gave him a special kiss on his hand. If he held it to his cheek he would feel better. Whenever I was feeling lonely that little trick always helped. Year 6&7- My kindergarten and first grade year were really fun for me. I made a lot of new friends, which is why “You’ve Got a Friend in Me,” by Randy Newman fit into my life. Two of my best friends were in my kindergarten class. We were best friends and then slowly drifted apart over the years. In fifth grade, we were in the same class, and it was as if no time had past. We were instantly friends again. Friends are important to me and it’s good to know that someone can have your back for all that time. Year 8- The Nancy Drew series by Carolyn Keene and the Judy Moody series by Megan MacDonald were some of my favorites. I’ve always liked reading but it was second grade when I was really able to start reading chapter booking on my own. I loved mysteries and always thought that I would be an author when I got older. Year 9- “This One’s For the Girls” by Martina McBride represents a funny memory from my third grade year. I sang this song in the talent show with Darby and Mackenzie, and we had made up a dance to go along with it. Mackenzie messed up halfway through and I meant to give her just a little reminder by give her a shove but she stopped and stared at me when I knocked her off balance. Everyone laughed, but it’s a good memory to have. Year 10&11- “We’re All in this Together” by the High School Musical cast brings up another talent show memory. It was our last year at WSL and we wanted to do something really cool. Holly, Jess, Mackenzie, I, and a few other friends attempted to do the dance to this song. It went well…for the most part. Year 12&13-”When I Grow Up” by the Pussycat Dolls was not only one of my favortires at the time but it kind of describes what you think about as a 6th/7th grader. Your not too worried yet about college and grades and stuff, so anything is possible to you. You have lots of dreams at this time, and this is when I set goals for myself. Year 14&15- “Changes” by Butterfly Boucher goes with the current this of my life somewhat. We’ve moved on from middle school and all of a sudden grades really matter, there’s more pressure to do well, and we have to be more aware of what’s going on around us.
