Describe a phase in life that was difficult to say goodbye to.
In this blog, I will describe a phase in life that is difficult to say goodbye to. I have not totally said good bye to it. Just the part of playing music with other musicians. I still play music on my own. I will return to the stage again, once I get my car payment under control. It is very expensive.
I am going to go back to playing music one of these days. I just don’t know when because my car and other bills are on my mind always.
In conclusion- the phase in life that is the hardest to say goodbye to is playing music with other musicians. That was so much fun. I have to go again or at least call my old buddies so we can jam together again. Thank you for reading.
In this blog, I will talk about my favorite people to be around. She has been around me for a long time. She has seen me through good times and bad times. She is my sister. My favorite person to be around. She lets me be myself.
I can discuss anything under the sun with her. She will always be on my side, as I am always on her side. We are like partners. We watch shows together, eat together, and do Doordash together. So my sister is a great person and much more than a sister. She is my best friend.
I also hang out with musical friends, when I go to play music. They are cool also because they play a guitar or a bongo and I play the shaker. So it is like a match in heaven, when I can see them and play music with them. It is really cool when we can just jam and make music out of anything.
In conclusion my favorite person to be around is my sister. She is very special to me because I can be myself around her. Then I like being around my musical friends because we can just jam and have a good time. Thank you for reading.
In this blog, I am going to talk about what I could do differently. Many people are stuck in a routine of getting up, going to work, coming home, making dinner, then going to bed. This is the vicious cycle of my life. If, I had a couple more hours to play with. It would be golden.
Since, I drive I have to pay for the car so I need to work. There is no way around that. My car is expensive so I need to work all month to make the payment.
If I could do something different. I would play music in front of people more often. Music is my happy place. I like just jamming away and singing. Maybe songs I wrote or not but jamming out. It is fun to see what comes out.
Plus what would really be good, is going back to the gym. The gym, especially cardio helps me breathe better, which is something I need to sing better. Plus, it is healthy to go to the gym. It makes me feel better too.
What would be cool is to play music for money, something to think about. First I would need to go to an open mic so people can see my talent. Then, talk to the owner of a bar and try to get a paid gig, which is cool. Well, I have my work cut out for me.
I have to work my job to pay for my car. Also, work on playing music at an open mic. Plus go back to the gym. So that is what I could do differently, but I am in the vicious cycle of getting up, going to work, making dinner and then bed.
So I need to reexamine my life to make it better for me and putting music, the gym, would make me happier. Thank you for reading.
The city I would like to visit is Philadelphia Pennsylvania because my real father has family there. I would like to learn more about my Italian roots because my real father was Italian.
I would also like to visit Los Angeles because of the music scene. Someone told me in Los Angeles they have open mics all week, which would be cool to do. It would be fun. Open mics are places musicians go to perform for free and get to display their talent in front of an audience.
If I had the money, maybe New York City. It would be nice to go see the statue of Liberty and maybe go to a play or the theater.
Introduction- today I will blog about my favorite people, some are people I know in real life. Some are people that I listen to on YouTube.
My sister- she is one of my favorite people in this whole world. We have been through a lot together and life would not be complete without her. She is my youngest sister so we are usually goofy together but I love her to the moon and back. She does a lot for me without questioning me. She is awesome.
Aunt Gracie and her family are fantastic people. They help me out and supports me when I am feeling down. My aunt Gracie has been a big hero of mine because I would like to be a teacher and she is already one. So her and her family are fantastic.
My brother Christian is awesome also. He has helped me out tremendously by moving me and doing doordash with me. He is great also.
My older sister is great. She’s always there to be a listening person and provides some advice to me. She is pretty cool.
My nephews and nieces, Kristi, Nick, Genisa, and Joshua. They provide a lot of love and support to me. They are great.
My friends such as Engel, Rich, Tara, Scott,Dave and Matt They have been a tremendous support system for me, which is awesome. I sometimes go and play at open mics with them and we play music together. It is cool.
When I am feeling down I put on music by Pantera or Lamb of God especially Redneck and I feel instantaneously better. So those bands are some of my favorite bands and people. I would not look them up, if you do not like heavy metal music but there’s something about the singer screaming that makes me feel better.
In conclusion- these people are my favorite people that I do things with and associate with. These people make my life a lot happier. my sister, my aunt Gracie and family, my brother Christian, my older sister nieces and nephews. My friends Engel, Rich, Tara, Scott, Dave, and Mat and my music Pantera and Lamb of God. All these people make my life worth living. Thank you for reading.
Music transforms all of us. It can make you happy or sad. It is a rush sometimes and can be an emotional rollercoaster. Most people love music to dance to or to get them going and give them energy to get things done. Music is a billion dollar industry and it is not going anywhere.
Some of my favorite artists are 2pac with his rhyming rap songs. He is considered the greatest rapper of all time and his songs just make you think or make you feel good. Rest in peace 2pac.
Another one of my favorite artists is the drummer of Led Zeppelin. His name is John Bonham. He was a thunderbolt on the drums. He was incredibly talented on the drums. If you ever get the chance listen to Moby Dick. The drum solo on that track is awesome. You can see for yourself. Rest in peace John Bonham.
Another one is Jimmy Hendrix. He was incredible on the guitar. He was a singer too. He invented acid rock which later became heavy metal. He had all kinds of tricks such as playing the guitar with his mouth to lighting his guitar on fire. Voo doo child is one of his best songs. Rest in peace Jimmy Hendrix.
Another one was John Lennon. He was from the band the Beatles. He played guitar and was a singer and wrote fabulous songs such as Please Please me. Him along with Paul McCartney were the main song writers and singers. Well Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds got me through my coma. My mom used to put headphones on my head and play the song on a walkman on a tape. That song alone made me wake up from my coma. So I have mad respect for John Lennon because he wrote and sang the song. Great song, rest in peace John Lennon.
There are many more, but I will stop there. Those are the main artists I have mad respect for. Even though they may not be with us anymore, they were some of the greatest artists at what they did. Thank you for reading.
What brands do you associate with?
Introduction:
In this article I will discuss brands that I associate with. Brands are companies that make a certain item. I associate with a lot of brands from the smartphone I type on, to what I wear, to what I eat, to what drink, and to what drums I play. Everything has a brand.
I am typing on a Google 6a smartphone, which is a brand. I also own a Samsung 10e smartphone, which is another brand.
I wear a lot of brands such as Levi’s pants, Guess shirts, Nike shoes, or Reebok shoes, and Tommy Hilfiger shirts.
I eat a lot of fruits and vegetables. The one brand that sticks out is Dole bananas. Also, Dole makes salads so there is another brand. I eat out a lot so brands such as Popeyes, chicken sandwich, Dunkin donuts, coffee, Subway, sandwiches, and Philbertoes,burritos, and Taco Bell, tacos, Suchi Cho, suchi, and Sheri Punjab, Tandori Chicken.
I drink bottled water which also comes with it’s brands such as Sam’s club water, Fiji water, Smart water, Evian water, Core water, and Iceland water. They are all good brands of water.
My drums also have a brand ,it is Tama. My cymbals also have a brand ,Sabian . I also have a Zildjian hi hat. I play my drum set with Pro Mark Drum sticks. It is a lot of fun.
In conclusion, Everything has a brand it is the company that made the product. I deal with a lot of brands, such as my smartphones, what I wear, to what I eat, to what I drink, and finally to my drums. If you do anything with a certain item, I am sure it will have a brand.
What I could do more of. I could get out of the house and work more or just take a walk.
I am disabled from being shot in the head with a gun. I make too many excuses not to go on walks or do more work. I walk with a limp and my left arm doesn’t function so I can only use my right hand. See I don’t know my own potential in how I can work more. I would love to make money and possibly work more outside the house but I am limited in what I can do.
I should probably write more because that is my passion. When I get a good cup of coffee in me the words just flow out a lot easier. I should be able to turn my passion of writing into a job which would be cool. Then I would have a job and then I could go on walks when I felt like it.
I play music maybe that could be something too. I play drums and write lyrics which is something I do every day. I need to do it more often possibly. That is a passion also I don’t have a great voice but I sing too. I had a lot of bad things happen to me so I need to get them out and music is the way I do that and writing.
In conclusion, I need to write more and write lyrics more maybe one day it will turn into a job or something I need to have faith. Thank you for reading this
Life without music would be boring. I deum, play shaker, and sing and song write so if all of that disappeared it would be very disappointing to me.
I write lyrics every day, just in a notebook sometimes I can read what I wrote,but most of the time they are hard for me to read. The ideas are there that’s why I write lyrics everyday. I play drums everyday, which helps a lot with anger because I was shot in the head and now I am disabled. So I have to have an outlet to express my anger. So if there was no music I would be very angry too.
Music just makes me happy. I can be in the worst mood put on some music and it cheers me up quickly.
I listen to all sorts of music such as, 2pac to heavy metal, to jazz and r and b, Alternative, if all that music went away it would be a very sad moment.
In conclusion, I don’t care how old I get music will always be my true love from making music to listening to music it will always be with me because I don’t think anyone can take music away. It is a billion dollar industry. So I’m glad it is not going anywhere. But if it did I would not live anymore.
