Throughout my life, music has always been an escape from stress. An escape from anything I couldn't handle at the moment. It wasn't until high school that I realized how much more music could be to me. Music isn't only an escape, but a tool for focus and intuition. As I have gone throughout high school, music has helped me increase happiness and a desire to learn in all of my classes. Because of this, music has helped me learn how to learn. Music fills my mind at every waking moment. I love having band, choir, and broadway classes as markers throughout my school day. I can use them as restful waypoints if the rest of my classes aren't particularly interesting. As a musician, I have taken part in many musical groups and organizations. As a vocalist, I have made it into the WSMA Honors Choir every year of high school. I made it to state for Solo Ensemble 2 times. I also sang in the choir at my high school and performed in my school's auditioned group called Broadway Company. As an instrumental musician, I have performed in my school's top ensemble for 4 years and also have gone to state for Solo Ensemble 2 times. It is through groups and events like these that I have learned how to work with people and gained important leadership and teamwork skills which are very necessary going into college. Not only has music taught me how to learn, but it has taught me how to work with people. Because of all of these major impacts that music has made on me, my future goal is to become a musician. Music has shaped my goals so much that I want to do it for the rest of my life. I have made much more of an effort to stay as a musician than any other thing in my life. I would be willing to do anything to remain a musician. This is my passion and I can't see myself doing anything else. All of my goals revolving around music also bleed into other areas of my life. My last job was at my church, and I got it because I sing there. I also have made goals to do as many music classes as possible in high school. I am happy to say that this goal was accomplished. I have around 30 music credits now, at the end of my senior year. Overall, music is very important to me. It has taught me many things, and has given me my passion and drive for all of my future goals.
