Hello, my name is Sofia S and I am a student at UAF. I have lived in various Alaskan cities my whole life and am happy to have recently started a family here. I love being outdoors whether that is hiking, kayaking, snow-machining, sledding, etc.. I am on my third schooling year at UAF and want to go into an education field. My ideal career would be an elementary teacher just like my mother.
My relationship with music, I think like most peoples, is constantly evolving and is never truly so cut and dry. I am someone who if they like a song regardless of the genre I like it. For the most part though, I usually steer towards pop and country music. I have briefly dabbled in playing the guitar but I could not play the guitar now if I needed too. I have never gone to any live concerts so I am not sure what I would think about that experience compared to just listening and enjoying at home.
Wow, how interesting!
ReplyDeleteI was an elementary music teacher for 21 years, and my mother taught elementary for 30 years. You need to go to a live concert. Many recording and music videos just can't capture the excitement of a live concert - not to mention the stunning stage effects that frequently accompany these events. I have been to concerts in an outdoor tent that just blew my socks off. I saw Lindsey Stirling this past December with my God daughter. We were amazed.
ReplyDeleteI, too, tried learning the guitar mainly because of how cool I thought it would be, but also because my dad knows how to play, so I thought it would be a good bonding experience. Like you, I cannot remember anything I was taught. Lol
ReplyDeleteI am also studying to become an elementary teacher! That is so cool!
ReplyDeleteIt was great to read your introduction! You seem to have a strong connection to Alaska and lead a very active lifestyle. I completely agree that our relationship with music is constantly evolving and difficult to pin down. I feel the same way; a good song is a good song, regardless of genre. I noticed the musical link you shared was for "The Nights" by Avicii. That's an excellent choice—it's a very upbeat song with a great message about living life to the fullest, which seems to suit your adventurous spirit perfectly!
