The Soundtrack To My Life - Part 1


Hey Ya!
Outkast
This song has meaning to me because as little girl my family would go to a roller rink together. I was never very good at it but my older siblings would help me out. Eventually though my siblings got bored of it and we stopped going. But, every time we went to the rink this song would be playing in the background. Ever since than when ever we hear this song it brings us back to the “good ol’ days.”

Hallelujah
Jeff Buckley
During my first year of camp this song was sung at every campfire during those four weeks. Going to camp that year was the first time I had ever been away from my family for more than a week by myself. While, I was away it also helped me because it is in the movie Shrek and that is one of my father’s favorite movies.

What Doesn’t Kill You Makes You Stronger
Kelly Clarkson
Two years before my sister went off to college we sang this song in the car on the way to school in the morning to wake us up or after school if its been a rough day. We would just be in the car singing as loud and off tune as we could together not worrying about anything in those few minutes together.

Titanium
David Guetta
In June 2012 I had an opening number to this song it was really touching because it was the last year that I danced with my sister and Kayla. After the show all of the seniors were crying together because it hit them that this was the last time they would most likely ever dance together. Even though they had three competitions left that month.

Put A Smile On Your Face
Vitamin C
When I was about 7 or 8 my sister and I entered our first competition season together. This was the song of our first duet together. We went through three different dance choreographers before we finally finished our dance. We both ended up getting special judge awards for our facial expressions especially our smiles.

The Entire Nutcracker Soundtrack
Varies Artists
This soundtrack represents me because for at least 9 years I had been apart of IBC the International Ballet Company in Westin, Florida. Every December we put on a production of the Nutcracker. The ballet company has been a huge part of my life. There is no specific song on this CD that could be selected they all have to be included.
