Loud Music
When I first got my license, I was so excited. I could drive myself where I wanted, drive my friends, and feel older. My favorite part of driving myself, was listening to loud music. Music in the car made me content. Driving without music is impossible. I began listening to the radio, but I hated the commercial brakes. So I began listening to my Ipod: varying from T-pain and Kanye West, to The Afters and Aviation. I couldn’t and still to this day can’t listen to the music without the volume being all the way up. I love music. Music is perfect. Music is great for all times. When I am sad, I listen to songs that help me get over my sadness. When I’m excited, I listen to Top 40 songs and songs I love. There is a song, for each mood and condition I may be in. When I listen to loud music, people look at me and be like he thinks he’s cool, or look at that fag. These people judge me for they have nothing better to do. The reason I listen to music so loudly is because it entertains me, and makes me happy. As long as I am content, and enjoy what I am doing, I don’t care what others think.
