'Cause I wanna

[arielarena]

Thanks to everyone for the birthday wishes! I had a pretty good day considering I was in class for most of it. I love my friends dearly because they made it awesome! Tomorrow we are going out since we'll actually have time. Cannot wait for karaoke! It is gonna rock!

I've seen this meme a bunch of times and was probably tagged along the way to do it but never did. Now I feel like it so here it goes...

Step 1: Put your iTunes or equivalent on random.
Step 2: Post the first line from the first 30 songs that play, no matter how embarrassing.
