Writing Hiatus, Memories, and THE MUSIC CREW

SO, it's about time that I write some more (after being asked many times by different people). I apologize for my 4 day hiatus, it's because I'm trying to enjoy the last few days of my summer. Yes, I start school on Tuesday, after Labor Day and I'm not that upset to be honest. This is because 1. I've had the best summer of  my life and 2. I want the year to go by fast and to get school over and done with.

As my summer comes to a close, I look back on what was good, what was bad, and what made me laugh for hours on end. The way I like to look back at memories, is through music. They keep safe in my head until I channel them through a song. For instance, if you read my friend Claire's blog (Escape This Reality by Claire ) you will notice that she brings up the Music Crew of 2013 (or just the Music Crew). This AMAZING group of people consists of yours truly, Claire, Caellum (CKWriterman, the writer of another amazing blog called For Lack of A Better Name), Emma, Zoe, Mike, Leanne, and Tiernan. Even though I am the most recent member of this great group of friends they make me feel like I've known them for a long time. We, as a group, express our thoughts mostly through music (hence Music Crew) and are all gifted musicians no matter if it's clarinet, guitar, drums, keyboard, or even the human voice we all are gifted individuals. Back to the point, the first time we all got together this summer, we all played music, laughed at stupid inside jokes (from the TV show Supernatural), and took long STRESSFUL golf cart rides. These, unfortunately few, days of summer with these people have been some of the best days of my life and although summer is ending for me, I still have the many new songs on my iPod that will remind me of these few days that we have all been together. I will cherish them and hopefully I will see these people during the school year. I love them all dearly.
