30 Day Writing Challenge- Day 3

My first love is way different than my first kiss. I'll talk about my first kiss first because it was literally awful. I had a friend that liked to play "pranks" on me, so one day she decided to set me up with someone. We both went to a local skating rink and met with the guys we were talking to. The guy she set me up with was not at all what I expected. I had talked to him on the phone... it was like the 90's version of being catfished. Anyway I didn't want to hurt his feelings, and I didn't know what to do. I let him kiss me once, then I ended up in the bathroom for most of the night, hiding.

My first love, is actually Jesus Christ. But I know this challenge means romantic love and I'm not really even sure who the first person I loved was. I mean there are so many different levels, and once you meet someone that you feel is your "true love" the others don't seem to fit that description anymore. So if we are talking about someone I first felt something really special for, it would be a guy I met in the seventh grade. I'm going with him as my first love because he is the first person to ever inspire me to start writing. I wrote a poem about him and I'm sure it's on here or my channillo.com for sure. It's called "you and your guitar". The guy's name is Paris, and I'm sure some people who know me, also know him but I'm over being embarrassed about a middle school crush, I mean, come on. I think what drew me to him was his maturity. I grew up in the country and hadn't ever met any boys that I really liked for their personality. None of them were like me, they weren't super artistic or unique. I'm sorry to all those boys but it's true. This guy was so different, and yea sure he was attractive but there was more to him than that. It's the first guy I ever liked that was actually what would become my "type". I had found my type in him. That still to this day is my type. I don't still like him, of course, I haven't spoken to him or seen him since the tenth grade. But he was very different, very mature and intelligent, and of course, even at eleven was really talented at guitar, I can't imagine how good he is at it now. And he used to have conversations with our teachers, because they were on the same level of maturity as him. I was so infatuated with that. I loved listening to his thoughts and ideas on important matters. And well I'm grateful to have met him because if I hadn't, I wouldn't have known what kind of person I was really looking for.

music piracy... is stealing more than just music, it's stealing hopes and dreams

I cried watching "empire"... yea... Terrence Howard's character says: "I started selling drugs when I was 9 years old, in philadelphia, I did it to feed myself. But it was the music that played in my head that kept me alive when I thought I was going to get shot. And it was the melodies I dreamt about that kept me warm when I was sleeping in the streets...you see? music saved my life. Times have changed though, the internet has destroyed the musicians ability to make money, because our work, is downloaded for free online. Now it's impossible for the disenfranchised kids growing up in the projects to overcome poverty the way that I did" I wanted to stand up and cheer, but people would look at me weird... set there, turn that over in your mind... sure getting free music might not hurt those super famous, already signed and set "rock/rap/pop stars" you see on tv.., the ones with mansions, the ones you think represent musicians all across the boa

1) "walk away" by Christina Aguilera... well this is one of the best songs by Christina in my opinion, vocally and lyrically. She wrote this song and the lyrics are almost completely perfect. It's so moving and sad, and you can really feel that she means what she is singing about. I have many times related to this song on a personal level. It's very 1950's loungey sounding as well, I love it. 2) "Man of constant sorrow" as covered by Sawyer Fredericks... I really liked the live version of this better, he sang it for his blind audition, this song got popular because of that movie and everyone knows that, but also, even though this is a "cover" it's original singer/writer is unknown, it's an old folk song that people used to sing. 3)"Bring me to Life" by Evanescence... I remember the exact moment I realized this song was written about Jesus. I LOVE this song, it is literally one of my favorite songs of all time. Amy Lee i

This line, in this movie was one of the many things I can look back on in my life that lets me know who I am, who I always was and who I'm meant to be. I remember as soon as she said this I felt something amazing. See what I hear most of the time is that people who start being like this, who stand up for human rights. Who stand up for what is right. Are brainwashed by hollywood propaganda. I'm not defending the people in hollywood, not everything they do is good, in fact it's mostly corrupt and there's a lot of discrimination within hollywood and all media as well. But here's something else, they don't have an agenda, they don't care if it's domocrat or republican, they care about money. And the people who work in hollywood are usually artists, artists see things that most people don't and they have ways of working their own beliefs into things. Those things get past the people in charge with ease as long as it will make them money. They aren't
