Soundtrack 2 My Life (KiD CuDi)

Instead of the normal assignment, I put my iPod on shuffle and for each song put why it applied to that year of my life. 1996- "Monster" by Kanye West featuring Jay-Z, Rick Ross, Nicki Minaj, and Bon Iver- I was a baby at this time so it could apply to the fact that all babies are horrible. When I was little I also liked to pretend I was a monster. 1997- "Whatever You Like" by "Weird Al" Yankovic- I was still a baby technically, and babies get whatever they want or else they'll cry or throw a tantrum. 1998- "Basketball" by Fabolous featuring Lil Bow Wow- I started to get interested in sports around this time. I would watch them on TV and played some of them. I remember this little purple and orange basketball that I had. I also played wiffleball and soccer. 1999- "Love the Way You Lie" by Eminem featuring Rihanna- I was starting preschool around this time and I had discovered lying. I lied whenever I could. Lying became an important part of my life and it still is. 2000- "Heart of a Lion (KiD CuDi Theme Music)" by KiD CuDi- Little kids have so much energy and so do lions. Kids can play for hours on end and lions can hunt for a long time. 2001- " 'C' is for Cookie" by Cookie Monster- Sesame Street was the best. I loved to watch it. I also loved cookies. Two main components of childhood. Cookies and Sesame Street. Those were the days. 2002- "Teach Me How to Dougie" by Cali Swag District- I was just starting elementary school, and we were starting to "learn" stuff. I say "learn" because it wasn't really anything important. School was so simple back then. 2003- "The Tip of the Iceberg" by Owl City- I was still just begginning school and it was starting to get a tiny bit tougher. It wasn't hard, it just wasn't as easy. That was just the tip of the iceberg though. It was going to get a lot tougher. 2004- "Over" by Drake- I began to hate school. It was so boring. I just couldn't wait until it was over and I went home. I would literally count how long it was until school was done. 2005- "Big Picture" by T.I.- I was starting to understand life. I was seeing and noticing more things. My horizons were expanding and my gaze was getting wider. 2006- "All I Do is Win" by DJ Khaled featuring T-Pain, Ludacris, Snoop Dogg, and Rick Ross- School was becoming a competition. Middle school was coming up and I was scared to no longer be on top of the school. 2007- "I Love College" by Asher Roth- I wasn't in college, but I did kind of like middle school. I wouldn't say love, but it was better than elementary school. 2008- "Move Along" by The All-American Rejects- The years were piling on, and things were starting to move quicker. Childhood was fading away faster than ever. 2009- "Everything On Me" by T.I.- I was under a lot of pressure and had a lot of stuff going on. The homework was starting to be to much, especially in Earth Science. 2010- "Day 'n' Nite" by KiD CuDi- There were a lot of good times, but there were a lot of bad ones as well. The whole year was up and down. It was like a (very crappy) rollercoaster. 2011- "Fame" by B.o.B- The year isn't over, so maybe I'll become famous this year I guess that that would make it a pretty good year.
