The soundtrack of my life would have to begin with the song "Without You" by Harry Nilsson. This was my parents wedding song and when I was two years old they got divorced. Whenever I hear this song it reminds of them and how I never really knew what they were like when they were married. I have heard this song so many times because my dad still plays it to this day, and I love it because I grew up with Harry Nilsson's songs.

"I saw the sign" by Ace of Base. This song is the epitome of my childhood. When I was growing up my mom had this song on repeat for a number of years. I don't think my life's soundtrack would be complete without this song. Although I hate this song because I've heard it at least 1000 times, I used to love this song. For some reason this song reminds me of my two sisters, my mom and I going to my favorite bakery on Saturday mornings and getting the world's GREATEST cinnamon rolls.

"Better Man" by Pearl Jam. This is one of my all time favorite songs. When i was in seventh grade I got into a full on obsession with Pearl Jam. I fell in love with Eddie Vedder and his voice. In my early teen years Pearl Jam was all I would listen to. I remember summer going into 9th grade Pearl Jam came to Summerfest and I begged my mom to take me, and when she said she couldn't I just cried.

"Hide and Seek" by Imogen Heap. This song reminds me of the beginning of my relationship with my boyfriend when I was a freshman in high school. When he showed me this song I fell in love with it. I used to make him give me his Ipod so I could listen to it in study hall. This song just reminds me of such a great time in my life. I was just starting high school and I was in love. This song brings back a lot of great memories for me.

"Just Dance" by Lady Gaga. I can't even begin to express how much I love this song. Not because I think it's a good song, but because it brings back so many great memories with my 5 girl friends from high school. We always played this song. During our lunch break senior year we would go off campus to eat, and all of us would squeeze in one car, and we would blast this song and dance and scream. And when we all went to Mexico for spring break all 6 of us stayed in one room and one day when we were getting ready to go out, we put this song on and danced around singing and jumping. It was probably the greatest trip of my life. I love that song and it really made my senior year so much fun with all my girl friends.

"Christmas (Baby please come home) by Mariah Carey. I chose this song to represent my first year at college because it is one of my favorite Christmas songs and I had to play this song so many times to get me through finals week. The worst thing about the University of Wisconsin is first semester finals week. Christmas is one of my favorite times of the year and I didn't get to experience any of it this year because of finals week. I had the hardest time focusing on studying because all I thought about was Christmas. At one point during finals week I just broke down, I was so tired of studying, my brain was fried, and all I wanted to do was go home and decorate my house with Christmas stuff. To get myself through the rest of the week every hour or so I would play this song so I would feel better.

"Marinus van der Lubbe, burned down the Reichstag building in protest against the injustices of unemployment…Van der Lubbe's lone act was portrayed by Joseph Goebbels, soon to become Reich Propaganda Minister, as the result of a Communist conspiracy to stage an armed uprising. This convinced many middle-class voters that the decree (Hitler's decree to suppress the Communist party) was right."

This can be used as evidence in my paper of how Hitler manipulated people agree with his actions. Hitler is said to be a master at speeches and exploiting people to see in his favor. In my paper I want to find out how Hitler was such a convincing leader. Hitler hired Goebbels as his Propaganda Minister and in turn Goebbels made persuasive movies highlighting Hitler's leadership and effectiveness. I think that without Goebbels, Hitler would not have been such a powerful Chancellor. Hiring Goebbels was a very smart move for Hitler and was one of many tactics he used in his manipulation of the German people. The rest of my paper will be researching and recording his other methods in how Hitler became such an effective leader.
