Another one of those music entries...

You know the feeling of when you discover some really awesome band that you automatically connect with immediately claim how much you love them? Yeah, that's me too. There's phases I go through when I really get into a new band or artist. It's usually listening to them non-stop, trying to learn everything and anything possible of the band, and seeing if they're worth seeing live. It's a couple weeks later or months that I step back and come across another band or retreat to my usual playlist I listen to. However, I always do become surprised when I realize three years forward and I'm still listening to them with the same amount of admiration I had for them the first time I came across them. It's that feeling that always gets to me. I'm always intrigued at how much music has shaped my life and how it's always been in my life.

Have you ever had such an urge to write that once you put that pen to paper your thoughts immediately become jumbled? Or for my case once I set my fingers on the keys, my thoughts scan through my head so quick and it's difficult to try and type it out in a way that's understandable.

I usually write here because it's much quicker to get my thoughts down than when I write in my notebook but it's always fun commemorating memories the old fashion way.

Music is Magic

Music is definitely important in my life. Whether I'm in the shower listening to KROQ, while I'm walking down the school hallways listening to my iPod, when I'm working on school papers at 2 o'clock in the morning my iTunes is on, and when I'm in the car with my Mom, it's ALWAYS on. Unless I become bored and crave silence but that's rare.

A couple nights ago my mother was explaining to me that I've always been in touch of my emotions and when a sad love song streamed through the radio, I'd tell her to change it because it made me sad. My aunt told me a similar story a couple of days earlier. This probably explains why music has been so important to me in my life; maybe this also explains why music makes me feel the way I do. It's difficult to describe in words but music can definitely express it for me. Sometimes I'd rather say, "Here. Listen to this song. That is me right now."

Usually when I'm angry or sad I turn to music to vent. I eve made special play-lists on my iTunes concerning with my mood. I have one titled: Serenity and another 90's Flashback, and another Sunday Afternoon.

Not to mention, I enjoy quoting a lot of songs and there are songs that I can't wait to be able to quote such as Green Day's Coming Clean.

Seventeen and strung out on confusion
Trapped inside a roll of disillusion
I found out what it takes to be a man
Well,Mom and Dad will never understand

Seventeen and COMING CLEAN for the first time
I finally figured out myself for the first time
I found out what it takes to be a man
Mom and Dad will never understand
WHAT'S HAPPENING TO ME



I forgot the point I was trying to make. What a disappointment.
