Music Within My Soul

My love for music.

Music Within My Soul

My discovery of music is honestly one of the best things that have happened in my life. Music is something that intrigues my mind that can change my emotion from sad to happy and vice versa. I sang my first solo in public at the age of two. I will never forget I was at my daycare's Christmas program and I saw all the big kids doing their talents. So, I asked my mom can I perform she set it up and within a few minutes it was my turn. I started to sing a Yolanda Adams song entitled “Open my Heart”. People that were in the audience still remember my act of braveness singing by myself at the age of two.

Music has that effect where it allows you to step out of your comfort zone. It gives you this drive to just be yourself; life is too short not to anyways. I have so many songs on my playlist it’s crazy - from the 1900’s to the 2000’s. I enjoy mostly 90’s music. It’s something about listening to Toni Braxton, Anita Baker, Aaliyah, and Boys II Men. Once you hear the beat drop or the wonderful sounds of the different artists, it automatically brings out an emotion that you can’t hide. Everyone has something they go to for just pure fun or when they're feeling down. Music has been a part of my life and will always be.

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?

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.
