Song one
The first song I would care to talk about is TikTok, by Ke$ha. During fourth grade, I was a fan of this song, although it might have been a bit mature for my age at that point. I remember using this song for my fourth-grade talent show. I also used it during auditions for the school musical. During my childhood, I was shy at times but could also be quite silly. my demeanor could change in a very short period of time. I enjoyed theater and performance a lot because I could be a completely different person. This gave me a way to explore myself and who I wanted to be in relation to others.

Throughout my life, I have always felt a need to be better and to do better than any and all my predecessors. I believe that we can always learn and grow, from both my life and those that have come before
