When I was 18, I spent a year teaching in a very rural school in Northern South Africa. There were about 40 of us volunteers who were going to South Africa and we all took the same flight from Heathrow. There was a moment, as everyone had said goodbye to friends and family, walked through passport control and we were just sitting there, a bit lost, a bit sad and a bit scared.
Someone had a boombox with them and put on these 2 songs. They will forever remind me of that moment.
Tom Petty: Free Falling
Kim Carnes: Bette Davies Eyes
