How Music Changed My Life

Music inspired me to do so many things..

I refuse to let my thoughts control me. I hate how I overthink to the point of tears, or how I avoid the main topic of why I'm overthinking. I choose to let music speak for me half the time because it can honestly fit 99% of the time to any situation I may be in.

Music tends to speak when words fail for me, something many can relate to-but only some let it be apart of themselves. It describes feelings as well as emotions, and how one can connect with another is amazing. All of this just due to various sounds, beats, and melodies which turn into something meaningful, each genre able to effect a person in numerous ways.

I feel when I sing, I express not only myself- but my emotions. It's a creative outlet, just like writing itself is too. You can put so much passion and drive into a single song or even a single lyric.

Then again, you cannot let these words and melodies define who you are. You are the only one who can let yourself succeed, whether the lyrics guide you or you decide to use your own voice.

I've always been the girl who's outgoing. Many people would say I'm a person who wants to make the most of everything along with help everyone. Music is a creative way for me to create conversation, friendships, and even just ease any mood.

Music has gotten me over breakups, helped inspire me to continue doing great things, helped motivate me, to relax, and well, to even become a better version of myself. I've built up more confidence, along with being able to express myself through singing and learning about different rhythms, beats, and melodies.

Whether I wake up with an upbeat and happy song, or end up dancing my way into getting ready, music has always been a great outlet and I wouldn't change it for the world.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
