    1. Reading sheet music can be the most frustrating thing ever but when it's done right and the musical instructions are executed, the sounds of the piano are rich, clear, and resonant. I enjoy this process because it is rewarding within itself. When I am upset, I know I can "piano vent" and let my emotions flow through the keys. Skpying while I do my homework can be distracting but when my friends and I do our work at the same time, we help each other and motivate each other. I've spent long hours doing college applications with the knowledge that my peers are doing so too. That is motivating because we are in this together and can give advice to those who are behind in the process. Sometimes, I am able to practice piano while I Skype and hear other people's opinions on the piece. The things I am doing are made better in the virtual company of my friends and the solace in the instrument. While both distractions from school work, they teach valuable lessons.

    1. Playing the piano can be difficult but practicing it everyday can help you gain the experience you need in order to play music or create a song. The piano can relax you when you're in a bad mood or can help you understand music in a whole different perspective. Playing a song you love can be the best thing ever.

  7. The book that i am reading is called visions, it’s about a girl named julia that is experiencing visions that nobody else see. Throughout the book she tries to figure out what these visions may be indicating and tries to find people who may be seeing the same thing that she is. If i was in julia’s situation i would probably going insane just realizing the fact that i am the only that is experiencing these visions.
