Whatever I want huh?

     Okay. The first thing I want is a new spaceship. Not just one of the two passenger ones but a titanic sized one. I want to be able to transport colonies of people to different planets. Also the ship has to be a recent model. Many of the older models have a lot of problems with the engineering and power steering. The only upgrade I absolutely need is the time travel combo pack that includes a complete weapon system. Another must have for the space craft is the turbo light speed engines. If I want to get any planetary exploration done the ship has to be able to travel at very high speeds.
     The next thing I want is a 12 ft tall stegosaurus with yellow and red skin. I want to stegosaurus to have large spikes and to be able to move very fast and agile. There are two reasons why I want this dinosaur. First off it is my favorite one. Secondly I want to use this dino for travel. Once I get on a new planet I want to use the stegosaurus to impress the new lifeforms. That brings me to another need. I have to have a custom built space suit for the stegosaurus. Without it, he would die.

     Lastly I want a life time supply of grilled peanut butter and jelly sandwiches. I don't have an actual reason for this except that they are the best food on Earth and I could live off of them. Also when I do get to new planets I will have something that I know is safe to eat.

Hmmm music

First off I would like to say I didn't find music until about last year. It just wasn't a big part of my life. I'm not saying I didn't like to listen because of course I did. I'm saying I never understood music. Never knew where it came from. Never knew how people poured their soul into the words that came out. Never paid attention. Then an event happened and it changed that. I went home, devastated, and wanted to get my mind off of it. So I founnd a radio. I turned it on and BAM! it hit me right in the face. I then realized that music wasn't just something to please the ears, it was much more. It was feelings put into a language that anyone could understand.

Music also played an important role in my childhood. At my old elementary school, when you were in the forth grade you were allowed to start learning to play the violin. I went home and asked my mom if I could and she said yes and gave me my brothers old one. Didn't even bother to check inside. So I get to school, ready for the first lesson, open the case and the violin is broken into 3 pieces. Heartbreaking. I was so embrassed.

I didn't get back into music until the next year when they let you play brass instruments. My moms boyfriend gave me one of his old trumpets. It was incredible. The actual trumpet was a little rusty but it played great. I played it all the way until the middle of 6th grade. I quit that year because when I swiched schools, everybody made fun of me there and I got bullied a lot. Having an instrument just made it worse so I stopped. Still have the trumpet. Never even touch it anymore.
