MUSIC / DANCE

I love music because it inspires me a lot. Let me just say singing is my talent. I believe that I was born with a passion for loving music. I cannot do anything without listening to music! I wish to go to a studio one day and record a song so I can hear my voice. People always tell me I can sing. And, honestly, I believe it. I know one day I will go to a studio to record a song. I wish to be the singer of a band one day. I also got talent for dancing. I love to dance, and I am good at it.

When I was 11 years old, I was very hyperreactive. I could not sit still. My family was worried, and my grandmother took me to a counselor. The counselor told her that she needed to entertain me because if she did not do anything, I would cry for no reason. My grandmother came up with the idea that I should join a dance group. I did not like this idea because I did not feel comfortable dancing in front of others. Her idea made me very sad, but she made me do it. When I arrived at the dance lesson, I really liked it. I fell in love with dancing. I kept dancing with many groups, and I went to many events dancing in front of 100 or more people. I love to dance, and I kept dancing until I was 14 years old. After that, I came to the US and everything changed. I did not dance anymore.

I love to listen to music when I feel low. Music inspires me. It gives me goosebumps. I love to hear music while walking at the park or when I am drawing. It helps me to stable my mind and have the passion for working hard. Music relieves my stress. I like to hear K-Pop and Bollywood music. Sometimes, it helps me to release my emotions from my body. I don’t sing well, and I know many other are like me who like to just listen to songs but are bad at singing. I just love to enjoy the songs.
