A topic of anything that I would like to talk about? Hmmm, well of course it's going to be about music! You know what is one thing that really bugs me about music? Other people get so judgmental about a person based on what they listen to or how they dress. Anyways, this bugs me a lot because it has happened to me several times since my sophomore year of high school. I've been called many names "emo, scene, metal head, goth" (even though they all have different meanings) and they think that I don't care about my education or that I don't know anything at all besides "worshiping Satan."
This picture pretty much explains it all.
Once a group project is assigned (especially in science and math classes) that is where I usually blow everyone's mind with my knowledge. As the school year progresses a few students would become friends with me just so I could tutor them and help them pass the class. Boom. The music that I listen to usually reflect on what I have experienced growing up. Music has always been there for me and helps me get through the day. Music helps me realize that I am not the only person who has the same problem, it also helps me to think that if the artist (or band) can get through this situation than so can I. Music has helped me get my emotions out.
A band named Suicide Silence has helped me conquer many life difficulties. A lot of people thought of them just as musicians who are so full of themselves and only care about drugs, alcohol, and girls. But they weren't...they were a group of 5 who were very caring, sweet, thoughtful and amazing. Their plan were to flip the stereotype upside down, to show the opposite of what people perceived them to be. Unfortunately, the lead singer has passed away in 2012 and has been unable to perceive their message to other people. Although, their music are still well known and legends never die.

I enjoyed this post a lot. I must agree that I think music really helps a lot of people to feel like there is other people out there who identify with what they are going through. I am sorry to hear that the singer of the band you liked passed, its really a hard thing when you loved their music and know there wont be more of it, but at least they shared what they could until it was there time.
ReplyDeleteReecy--Pretty good job with your new entries. You are missing #3, but the other 3 you have good ideas and topics. You have some pretty good development and analysis. Keep working on developing and analyzing and working on lead in and closing.
ReplyDeleteDid you know that some of the nicest people are actually satanist and they listen to classical music not metal?
