An unknown inspirationist once said‚ “Each day is a new canvas to paint upon. Make sure your picture is full of life and happiness‚ and at the end of the day you don’t look at it and wish you had painted something different.” I love to live my life as such and when I stare at this blank white mask I imagine all the endless possibilities‚ just as in life. As I start brainstorming‚ many activities I am involved in come to mind. One of which is basketball. This sport has not only become one of my favorite

In practice‚ however‚ the true significance of music’s impact not only in our academic lives but in our personal character is immense. The day I chose to play the clarinet in fifth

A few friends and I were driving around our quiet neighborhood‚ blasting Katy Perry over the AUX cord. ~California girls‚ We’re undeniable~ Instinctively‚ my lips moved along‚ the notes inches away from escaping my mouth. At the last moment‚ however‚ my jaws clamped shut. I simply could not bring myself to sing in front of my friends. I held it in‚ silent in the backseat.

What Got Left Behind At times‚ I consider myself somewhat of a forgetful person. Always feeling like I have left something behind. But in my life‚ what I leave behind is much more meaningful than an item such as a coat left on the back of a chair. What I leave behind is something no longer needed‚ something or even someone that caused me to have left it behind.
