Music

There's a quote thats says something like "music is the words we can't express."

I've never heard a more truer quote than that. It just fits. Have you founds songs you are addicted to. Its hard to not listen to or get out of your head. 

The best songs are the ones that capture you. The best songs are the ones that make you want to dance. The best songs are the ones that make you cry. The best songs help you figure something out. The best kind of music is the kind that you connect to. You can love country, heavy metal, pop, hip hop, anything. But you love it because you connect to it. I'm not trying to sound creepy, but its the flipping truth. Its something you love and thats important. 

Music is a huge part of my life. I hate silence. I constantly crave for a noise. I love the radio. It fills the silence. I listen to my music and go to a different world. Its like getting high but on your music. If you've never been lost in your music you are missing out of life. I hope you share my love for music because it a huge part of my life. 

Until Next time,

School

Ugggg! Thats how I explain school. I'm all honors classes this year. People say its suicide to try and do that, but I'm alive. Its like you are floating in school. The school work is the water and you trying to stay afloat. Well right now my head is bearly over the water. I feel like I'm sinking but I can't do anything. Its like I'm struggling to stay afloat. My grades don't show it but I am slowly drowning in the work. 

Waking up at 6 is not fun. I know I shouldn't be complaining because some people have to wake up earlier....but oh well. Let me tell you it sucks! Especially for the ones who can't sleep at night. I fall asleep at 12 and wake upthrough the   night sometimes. Its terrible!! 

Buses.....are also terrible. They smell funny. You are forced to sit with someone who you might not know. Maybe some people like the bus, but i've always had a bad experince on the bus. 

What hell look like. This is my bus. I'm like the last stop. 

Washington D.C

So I recently when on a trip to Washington D.C. My hotel was right in the middle of Chinatown. I had so much fun. I was surprised about how much I learned. The buildings there were crazy! They were so big and the architecture of the buildings were amazing.

There are a few things I found extremely common in Washington D.C

1. Stairs/Escalators- There where so many!! Everywhere! In subways, museums, buildings, everywhere!

2. Monuments/ Museums- I felt like everywhere I went there was some kind of museum about it. I think there was also a monument or statue about every one too...

3. Security- In Washington D.C there was a bunch of security. I understand why but still there was a lot. Every museum or federal building you had to go through security. There were cameras everywhere.

4.Domes- This one is weird but true. In many buildings there are domes. In the capital, natural history museum etc..

Those are the things I picked out while I was there. I rode a subway/mobile/tube what ever you want to call it, for the first time. I'm from a small town in Ohio...so we don't have a subway. It was super cool. The engineering that went behind the subway must have been complex because after a 4 days of staying there I still couldn't figure it out. On some days while I was there it was cold, like in the 30-40s. In the subways underground it was warm? Is it heated? If it is that doesn't make any sense why, that would be a huge heating bill. The subway was fun. I felt bad because I took my time figuring out where I wanted to go and I felt like I was holding up lines so that made me feel bad. There was a crazy girl on the subway giving a speech and every other word was fuck.....(sorry for cussing). That was my worst experience on the subway.

All and all I had a great time at Washington D.C. I saw most of the town in about 4 days. I would recommend a little more time than that to see all of Washington D.C. I would also say bring a book to something for the hotel. Most attractions close at 5 so that leaves some time in the hotel.

 So my favorite movie is Forrest Gump so I tried to take a picture of where he was....it didn't turn out perfect, but I thought you would still like to see it.  

 This is inside the Capital. It is the dome of the capital. Pretty cool right?

This is the Washington monument. They are doing some construction to it and they haven't finished yet but it still looks cool.

 

These are just some of the places I saw.

 

 

Until Next Time

Airplanes

I've always loved flying. Right now I'm flying to Washington D. C. This plane ride will be about my 60th ride. I am super bless to be able to travel like I can. I've been to China (I'm from there but live in the U.S), Mexico, California, Disney...etc. I've been to a lot of places. I when I go  somewhere new I like to take a journal and write about it. I am super lucky to travel like I do. My goal is to make it to every continent in the world. I have 2 down I need 5 to go to. 

List of places to go:

-England

-Spain

-Las Vagus (I hope I spelled that right) 

-Argentina

-Kenya 

-New York

-France

The list gets bigger as I learn more about different places. 

  

Until Next time,

What do you want to be?

As a kid you are constantly asked what you want to be when you grow up? As a kid I wanted to be an astronaut, a singer, author an scientist. As a high schooler we are asked again. When I was a kid I could answer fast and be sure of what I wanted. Now I'm confused. If we are called teenagers and we are apparently not trusted and irresponsible and blah blah how are we supposed to choose a career move? I can't even decide what movie I want to watch?! How am I supposed to make a career move? If I go to college and switch my career then that choice could coast thousands!! 

But I guess life is an open road and theres plenty of opportunities. 

Until Next time,
