There probably isn’t a lot about me that would interest other people, but what I currently do mostly for fun, I would like to do it the rest of my life. It may not be to make money. Firstly, I am currently a sophomore at Buhler High School. Like everyone else, I have schoolwork, but that’s not what interests me everyday. Of course, I have to focus and make sure my grades are the best I am capable of and nothing less. But the things I look forward to everyday when I get to school are band and my AP art class. Most people may say academics come first, but to me, it’s my arts classes.

Band is my favorite. Band is what interests me a little more than my art class. I don’t know what the other kids in band may say, but I think they would say marching band is their favorite. Marching band is what we get the most recognition for in band, but it’s not my favorite. Concert band is my favorite. Out of the two, it’s what I am best at. We also do pep band for basketball games, it’s fun, it’s just no the same as concert band. During concert band, I get to do more musical pieces. I get to hear more than loud, in your face music, it’s much more enjoyable for me.

Mostly so I get extra help and some of it to get better with my playing, I take private lessons. I learned to play flute first then I learned alto saxophone and then I learned piano. I take private lessons for two instruments. I take private lessons for my main one, flute and saxophone. I do not take lessons for piano because I learned mostly for fun. Saxophone I have played in band before. I played it in marching band my freshman year. I may do it again, it’s a little strange for me to say, but I like marching saxophone than flute.

Band and AP art are a hard choice of which I like more. Art is something that I don’t get to do at home all the time. Being in Advanced Placement art makes me challenge myself more as well as getting the chance to do more work than normal. I’ve only taken this class for one semester and already I’m looking forward to what I get to do next school year. Most of the pictures are of pieces I’ve done in class but at least one of them is one I did on my own at home or in my free time at school.

Something that I enjoy doing that I don’t get to do all the time like band or art is volunteering. I volunteer at the hospital. Basically what I am is a Volunteen. I get to do it once a week, for two hours a day, on Thursdays from 4:00 to 6:00 pm. Most of what we do is deliver flowers or e-mails, empty can recycling bins to recycle and what we do most of is fold and stuff billing statements that go to the patients that stayed there. We actually do more, but it’s mostly odd jobs around the hospital that they don’t have time to do. I actually do enjoy volunteering and something that makes it more fun for me is I get to work with my friend.

If you may not be able to tell already, music is very important to me. Without even trying, I know I wouldn't be able to go half a day without it. It's way too important to me. Of course everyone has their preferences as to what "good" music is. For me, that definition is loose. Anything to me could be good music. I like all genres of music basically. But the two I listen to the most are pop and rock. My favorite singer that I've ever liked while listening to their songs and really liking them is Miley Cyrus. I like all her songs that she's written and the ones she's not written but done a cover of. A song I just recently found is called "You're Gonna Make Me Lonesome When You Go". I'm not a country music fan, and most people classify this song as country but I really like it when she sings it. When I listen to this song it gives me an overwhelming feeling of calmness and care-free. Those are things I look for when I listen to a song. If the song gives me great feelings of some kind then I like it. 'Cause that's one of the great things about music and should be emphasized.



That’s the basics of what I do outside of going to school and homework. Thanks for taking time to read it.
