Africa

I wish my life was a musical. I really do.

How fun would it be walking down the street, singing and dancing with fellow citizens? I think it would be AWESOME!

Thus far, my life has not turned into a musical - no matter how hard I try.

However, there is one small, amazing exception to this rule: My sisters and I have a theme song.

This wasn't always so:

One fateful day in September 2008, my older and younger sister and myself drove down to our local video store to rent a movie. During this drive, the song "Africa" by Toto came on the radio and we pumped it UP!

Ever since then, I now associate this song with my sisters and the good times that are had when we're together, and, if I can, I turn up the volume and have a mini dance party.

...Well, I'll have a mini dance party just about anywhere. :)

I dedicate this to my sisters.

"Its 'gonna take a lot to drag me away from you
There's nothing that a hundred men or more could ever do
I bless the rains down in Africa
'Gonna take some time to do the things we never had."
