Music = Me








One of my favorite songs is "Quasimodo" by Lifehouse.  This song truly reflects how I feel about life.  The first time I heard it, The lyrics immediately hit me.  I Love Lifehouse for their amazing songs. They write poetry, not just songs.  This is a song that will always make me feel something.


My taste in music has defiantly changed over the years.  When I was little I didn't like exploring new genres or artists.  Now I enjoy learning about new artists and exploring new styles of music.  Now I listen to rock, alternative and electronic.  The biggest change was when I discovered classic rock.  My parents always tried to get me to listen to it, but I wasn't interested at the time.  Finally I listened to some a couple of years ago, and I actually liked it.  It was funny when my parents found out how much I knew about bands like Queen, Led Zeppelin and others.  I'm glad my love of music is a lot more broad.  

Without music, my life would be meaningless.  I can't live without music.  Everything would be dull and boring.  I can't imagine a world like that.

Music soothes me and helps me relax.  I like coming home after a ling day and listen to my Ipod.  No matter what mood I'm in, I have a song or band that I can listen to that matches it.
Happy = Upbeat pop or rock
Sad = Something personal
Angry = Aggressive rock

I want to be a singer someday.  It's been a dream of mine ever since I was 4 or 5 years old.  It's been hard for me because when it comes to performing, I still get nervous.  I did at one point have really bad stage-fright.  I didn't want to sing at all because of it.  Now that I've gained some confindence, I think i can be the true performer and singer that I am.  I plan to move to Los Angeles to start a career in music; either singing or musical theater.  I also might go to a college that is based on either film or music.  I guess I have to wait and see what the future holds.
