Background Music

Today, I was walking on campus on my way to meet someone, and I passed a guy playing his guitar and singing.  He really wasn't all that bad; he had a decent disposition and voice, and his playing complimented his singing.  I thought about saying something kind or encouraging to him, but I really couldn't think of anything to say at that moment.  Although I didn't say anything, I did feel grateful for the musical addition to my day; there's something about music that speaks to people, and that is why I wish that life would have more background music, haha.  It would make the day so much more interesting!  Just think, at an epic moment in your life when you witness something awesome, wouldn't a score of music like those in movies make that moment all the more epic?  However, if you were having a downer moment, where your in a fight, would music really make that time more enjoyable? Or would it make the moment more deeply depressing/angering?

Either way, I'd like more background music in my life, so I have decided to try a day with my iPod and earbuds going all day to accent the epic and crazy moments of my life.  This oughta be interesting ;)

(Yes, I realize that the elevator music is background music, but if you're like me and take the stairs and only take the elevator when I absolutely have to, you won't be hearing it.)
