I first wanted to play music when I went to a school concert. There I learned that music was what I was missing in my life. All my life I had felt an emptiness, as though something were missing. A huge empty space that I couldn't fill with flight or penguins or anything. And then came this beautiful sound that filled the whole world up with emotion. From the moment the band played their first note I knew what I wanted to do with my life. I wanted to make music, to fill the cavity of silence. When I got to middle school I joined the band and ended up playing the flute. When I picked it up I imagined all the amazing things I could play on it. When we had our first lesson I blew into it and made the worst sound in the history of the world! I hated my playing and I vowed to be able to play like a professional by the end of the year. So I practiced and practiced and eventually got pretty good. I landed first chair and kept it the whole year. Then I started listening to music alot and singing and dancing. Never in front of others but I did it. I began to 'come out of my shell' as my mom puts it after I participated in the talent show. I sang a song and did okay. Music was everything to me. And then he came along and ruined everything.
