Music

Music is honestly one of the most amazing things ever. I have an insane amount of music in my iTunes and I regret none of it.

Okay to start this off, my life practically revolves around music It is a constant in my life and i don't think I would be able to function without it. It is crazy how music affects me so much and the emotions it makes me feel. I can go from being a happy lil' marshmallow to the saddest raincloud in record time all by music.

I feel like many people think that they have the most amazing music taste and often ridicule people who don't like the same music as them. Most likely not every one is going to have the same music taste as you so you should just leave everyone alone.

Some people also judge others for listening to a certain band like One Direction. I personally like One Direction (buy Made In the AM on iTunes) and I cannot tell you the amount of times I have been judged for it. There was a time when I did feel like I couldn't listen to them without being hated on. I have learned to not care because I like their music way too much to care about anyones stupid opinion.

I think it is amazing how people can associate songs with different feelings personal to them. A song can have so many meanings to so many people and that is pretty kool. I personally, have playlists with songs that remind me of a certain time of the year. If you want to listen to my "Fall" playlist click here (it's lit).

Me jammin my vv good playlist

Music is such a universal language. Whether someone speaks Japanese or English they could both have the same music taste. The amount of people who listen to the same music but don't speak the same language but they are brought together by music is astounding.

I have such an appreciation for music and I hope that you reading this can identify with this. Now imma go jam. Ta ta 4 now

Hello Friends

So since this is my first post I'm just going to tell you the basic stuff a friend should know about me since you, whoever you might be, are my friend. First of all I am doing this for a grade so don't be too surprised if I stop this blog after May, but who knows maybe I will grow to like and continue it. Secondly, I am 14 (a wee freshman) and my birthday is October 30th. My star sign is a scorpio (just so you can check mine when you see those horoscope posts on Instagram or Tumblr) and I like fall candles way too much.

My friend Emma and I at the Halsey concert

I like music a lot. I like artists like 5 Seconds of Summer, Blink-182, Halsey, Melanie Martinez, etc. My favorite color is blue and I like horror films. I play volleyball for PCHS and I like to think that I am pretty okay at it. I have a dog named Kona and a 2 year old brother named Cam. I hate the winter which is ironic because I live in a ski town. I have always wanted to visit the UK and go ride the London eye. I am obsessed to rain and I'm kind of addicted to tea. I probably have more friends on the internet than I do in real life.

My extended family can get way too close for comfort sometimes but I love them anyway. I am not ashamed to admit that I am a hardcore fangirl and have gone to extreme lengths to see a new music video like staying up until 3 am when I had to catch a plane at 6 am. I could probably live in leggings, sweaters, and my solid black Converse. I might be a train wreck some of the time but thats what you get from me. I am a proud owner of a polaroid and I'm kind of obsessed with it. My records are my most prized possessions and I would probably run into a burning house to save them. I'm pretty sure this covers most of the stuff you definitely need to know about me and I hope to get to know you too as this blog goes on. I hope you will find me humorous and entertaining and if you don't then you're missing out by not following my blog.  I apologize for this post not being very funny but aren't all introductions like that.
