Honestly I've never liked writing, but it's what gets the grades unfortunately. It's always been so bothersome to me, and I guess that's because my outlet of creativity is a completely different source of activity. If I could write a paper while playing music, life would be great... Well let me rephrase that, if I could write paper by playing music life would be fantastic, like the ideas would just flow out of my head onto a piece of paper. Having an outlet such as music doesn't require any words, just emotion. All those times when your extremely angry and you just don't feel like talking to anyone, music lets you express your anger, sadness, or happiness through a feeling that just dissolves away without any question or explanation. Philosophers such as Aristotle and Plato called this the doctrine of ethos, which basically explains the power of music and how certain scales have the ability to trigger different emotions. For me personally drumming is a gift that has helped throughout my whole life, my own world. Anytime I pick up a pair of sticks and step into that world, nothing else is existent. I forget about time, hunger, people, emotions, even life itself.
