Music is my lifeline. I don’t know who I would be or what I would do if it wasn’t such a prominent part of my life. Growing up music was one of the things that i absolutely loved. I had music toys, like xylophones and keyboards, that i would never stop playing on. I’ve always knew that music was my outlet once I started band in the 6th grade. I was one of the last flutes to even make a sound, I was the slowest learner, yet, by the end of the year I worked my way up to being first chair. I carried that perseverance my junior year, when I was the first and only band kid to have made it into the Tulsa Honor Band in my school. Granted, I was last chair, but if it wasn’t for covid-19 I would have been a higher chair this year.
