Play more music!

What could you do differently?

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.

Drumming is my favorite hobby or pastime.

What is your favorite hobby or pastime?

Many people enjoy hobbies and pastimes Some of my favorite hobbies are singing, writing and drumming. It is hard for me to choose one . I do all of them everyday or else I get moody. Drumming eases my anger. Writing helps me focus on the day. Singing just makes me feel better.

I would much rather write then speak at an event or to a class. For some reason it is easier for me to sing to a crowd than to speak to a crowd. I know that is weird but it is true.

I used to have to publicly speak for my degree in Social Work. What I did is just read the speech to my class that worked out fine. It was not my favorite thing to do but I got it done.

Singing is the way I express my anger. I have a lot of anger because I was shot in the head. It needs to come out so I sing. It makes me more relaxed.

Writing is the tool I use to develop the lyrics that I sing. I sing original material because I don’t sound like anyone else so I make up lyrics. The drums are what I use to sing my lyrics on. So I sing and play drums at the same time. This is my hobby one cannot happen without the other. Thank you for reading.
