My Heart Will Go On

If I have learnt one thing at University, it is that 'My Heart Will Go On' is not an appropriate song to burst out laughing at.

Allow me to set the scene:

It's Thursday 7th November 2013, 22:10. I'm sitting in the pub with my flatmate, Amber, talking about the meaning of life (probs not, but whatever). I get a phone call from one of my best buds, Beth. I know she's out herself.

"Ben!!!"

I laugh, then, tune my ear into the most beautiful rendition of the 1997 song 'My Heart Will Go On' I have ever heard in my life.

Fast forward to this morning, sitting in a poetry 'Showing and Telling' seminar. Bored out of my mind. The lecturer, whom I have never met before, suddenly tells us that we are going to analyse music.

Music? OK.

On comes... you guessed it... none other than 'My Heart Will Go On'.

Oh, crap, Benjamin. Something I forgot to mention: Beth, the drunken singer, was sitting right next to me.
Well, it's safe to say I couldn't cope and spent the entire 3 minute of the song in silent laughter, trying to not out myself (and Beth) as the disruptive students we really are.

Move over, Celine Dion, Beth Allison and her extremely talented voice is here.

Coming soon to a creative writing seminar near you.
