Comment:

The mix tape/cd. The perfect medium to create a time capsule. A snapshot. A freeze frame. This one in particular--an homage to the absolute love of my life. The rough draft of this mix was created a week after we started dating. (What's the best way to impress a girl? A personalised mix, of course.) It underwent several versions, as I deemed it a work in progress; unsuitable for release. Adding songs, subtracting songs. I wanted it to be just perfect & at long last I had finally achieved my goal. The hard work came to an end, but unfortunately, so did our relationship. I DID end up giving her the mix & of course she loved it. (She cried. It brought her back to the first time we met.) This is testament to the fact that the best year and two months of my life can be condensed into 74 minutes. The perfect mix for the perfect girl. I still love you mAY-gUN. I always will...
