I recently graduated high school. I've got a full-time job to keep me busy, but I hope to God that I'm not stuck at that job forever. I do not currently have real plans to continue my academics, but that does not mean the will to learn is gone. I play guitar, and enjoy doing it. Music is the purest form of soulful expression. However, I do not see myself continuing my musical ways through six strings and an overdriven amp. I enjoy studying music theory, and writing music. I aspire to be a composer some day, with my largest influence being the greatest composer in my opinion, Aaron Copland, who created a true image of the American landscape through his compositions. I also play trumpet, but do not see much of a future with that, either.
