The end.
Just kidding. I'm excited about a lot of things, whether that is a positive or a negative connotation, it depends on the topic. I'm excited for music, writing, school to end, to travel, to maybe even disappear.
I'm excited. The end. Just kidding. I'm excited about a lot of things, whether that is a positive or a negative connotation, it depends on the topic. I'm excited for music, writing, school to end, to travel, to maybe even disappear. Music is my life. A phrase so often coined without thought of what that even means. To say that music is your life would mean that you breath, sleep, dream, exist based on music. Now, I hear this from three types of people most often: you have the top 40 lovers that know only what's played on the radio, but know each of those songs perfectly. Well, I don't know how you couldn't. Anyone that owns a radio could know the songs verbatim. The second group are "emo" kids or the "goths". These are people that dress and act according to the music. They tend to express to any person anywhere that they feel the emotion of the music. Okay, but anyone who listens to music can feel the emotion of the song. If a song is a ballad, people feel love struck or very sensitive. Whereas, if the song is a loud, aggressive song, people will feel tense and angry. It's really not that hard to feel the emotion of music. I think, in my own opinion, that the people that the phrase, music is my life, can most correctly be attached to is the people that actually do it. A musician isn't someone that knows the songs by heart, or dresses to portray the feeling, a musician is a person who works for years on understanding the concept of music. They play the music in their soul and with all their person. They literally live off of the music, people who personally or as a unit create the words, instrumentals, and emotion of songs. People that have spent hours upon hours composing pieces, editing and revising, play garage shows to just let people hear what they have to offer. That's a musician to me. I'm excited about music because my life has been surrounded by it and my band of seven years is soon to take off again and do some awesome stuff with our talents. For me, writing is an escape. I love to write. I love to create stories of things that haven't happened yet. Since I was maybe ten, I have written. It may not have been professional level; even now I'm not even close to professionalism, but I keep writing. If you haven't noticed, I have been writing on this blog, but I also have several stories I'm currently working on. It's probably not the best idea to work on various pieces at once, but I am. I have ideas and if I wait until I'm published and have all of the stuff I've thought out before I take my ideas down, I will not accomplish anything. I'm excited for writing because I figured out how to tie together three of my stories that will make up a trilogy. Much like this page says, I tend to dream in monochrome. The black and white. The paper and pen. Everyone hates school. Very few people are in school to learn. Most go in order to achieve a greater life career. I won't say there aren't people who love to learn because there are. I; however, am not one of those people. I graduated high school (12 years), immediately left the following fall for my LDS Mission to the Philippines, came home after 2 years, late two weeks for fall semester of school. I studied at S.L.C.C. for a semester, then at Snow College for a semester, then at BYU for a summer semester, then at Snow College for another semester, then the University of Utah for two semesters now and I just want it to end. Technically, I should have my Associates by now, but because I failed three classes at Snow College and one at the University of Utah. I decided to myself that I go as far as my Bachelor's which I'm also very close to getting. I just need to pass a couple classes to obtain my degree. After I graduate, I'm traveling for years. I'm excited to travel. It doesn't matter where, but I just need to leave. I would love to live in the Philippines and I've considered it. I often compare people to stars in the sky. There are billions of stars and also billions of people. Maybe I'll be like a fading star sinking beneath the horizon of some other world; just disappear for a while.
