Resolutions 2009 and Best of 2008

New Year's Resolutions, Best/Worst of lists, I love the end of the year for that. I don't like saying goodbye to the old year, but the proliferation of 100-best moments on E! makes it easier to bear.
Here is my list

Best Things about 2008:
  1. Barack Obama's winning the Presidency. Best day in American history, hands down.
  2. Tina Fey's impression of Sarah Palin.
To be finished later.

Songs about Boyfriends

Ah, in my eternal quest to catalog my love life, I've put together a list of songs that remind me of past boyfriends/lovers/or times in my life.

Boyfriend #3 (AR)
  • "Sea of love" by Cat Power.
  • "The Way I Are" - Timbaland.
  • "Anyone Else But You" - Antsy Pants
  • "I'm only Sleeping" - the Beatles
  • "Maybe I'm Amazed" - Paul McCartney
  • "How does it feel" - Voodoo
  • "Great Divide" - the Cardigans
Boyfriend #2 (JK)
  • "Don't you want me baby?" by Human League because I first heard the song when we were dancing at a bar.
  • "Reflections" by Atmosphere, because I learned the song the day before we met.
  • "Where'd You Go?" by Fort Minor because he kept leaving on trips.
  • "Littlest Things" by Lily Allen.
  • IF you go away - Emilina Torrini
  • The Sweet Escape - Gwen Stefani

College Crush #3 (MG)
  • "Portions for Foxes" by Rilo Kiley because he was 'bad news', my friends told me to forget him, and I liked him anyway.
  • Girlfriend by Avril Levigne. I did not like his girlfriend.
  • "Fidelity" = hmmm everyone

College Boyfriend #4 (PM)
  • "Strong Enough" by Sheryl Crowe, because his wishy-washyness often made me feel like hell, and I was perfectly prepared to believe anything he said as long as it was what I wanted to hear.
  • "My Humps" by Black Eyed Peas.

Boyfriend #1 (PK)
  • "Amber" by 311 because he tried to play it on the guitar for me
Crush #1 (KE)
  • "Kamasutra by Adassa, and "My Love" J-Timberlake because we danced to those. And then he said that he didn't want our relationship to go in  "that" direction. 
College Boyfriend #4 (AC)
  • "Don't Matter" by Akon, because nobody wanted to see us together.
Washington DC Non-boyfriend #1 (JD)
  • "Cold Shoulder" by Adele. Because everything he told me was lies, and his kept giving me the cold shoulder. Jerk.
