I think for this topic I'll write about one thing I love: music. From a very early age I was surrounded by music. My parents had a massive record collection and I remember seeing things like trippy Grateful Dead record sleeves. I'm somewhat of a musician myself, having played the drums for a few years. I wonder why I didn't start earlier, because I feel like it's something I was always meant to do.
Some of my favorite musicians right now include: Animal Collective, The Antlers, Arcade Fire, The Flaming Lips, The xx, Grizzly Bear, Ratatat, Kid Cudi, MGMT, Led Zeppelin, Blue Man Group, Beach House, Fleet Foxes, and the list could go on ad nauseum. I have about 10,000 songs on my iPod. When you click 'Shuffle,' you could be listening to "Fantasy" by Mariah Carey one minute, then "The Number of the Beast" by Iron Maiden the next, then "Got Yo Money" by Ol' Dirty Bastard the next, then "Girls" by Animal Collective the next. It's not like I'm going for representing every genre on my iPod; everything on there is music I like listening to and have no shame about listening to it.
If someone told me I couldn't listen to music for the rest of my life, I'd punch them in the face. Music has always meant a lot to me and still does.
