I heart music.

Music is something that gives life to a person. Whenever I listen to music, it gives me relaxation. I can express my feelings through the songs that I listen to. Music also saves me from boredom. Whatever I do, I always listen to music. Actually, I am listening to music while typing this blog. Sometimes, when I can't sleep at night I just listen to music and I can sleep easily.

My favorite genres are alternative rock and punk. My favorite bands are There For Tomorrow, All Time Low, We The Kings, Maroon 5 and many more. Their songs are great and I always sing along to the lyrics while listening. I don't really like solo artists but Gloc 9 is an exception. He is a Filipino rapper whom I think is the next Francis M. The lyrics of his song is very meaningful, He shows his sense of nationalism through his lyrics. He opens the eyes of the Filipinos, makes us see the problem of the Philippines. Not only problems but also to be proud as a Filipino.

Music is a part of my life that is very important. So important that if you remove it, it's like you sucked my life out of me. It gives color to my life, enjoyment and happiness.

Start of classes to be moved on September??

The Congress is planning to move the opening of classes on September instead of the usual June. If it will be pushed through, I think many students will be against it and I'm one of them. One factor is that all of the students are already used to coming to classes on June, and having vacation on April and May. They made that schedule in the first place because it fits our climate. We are having vacation on April and May because it is summer and we will not enjoy our vacation if it is raining. And that is exactly what gonna happen if they move the classes on September. It will be very hot while we're having classes and we will be just be stuck in our house in vacation because it's always raining.

So I am against the proposal of the people in the government about the moving of the opening of classes to September. I just don't think there is any solid reason why they had thought of this plan. I think they are just somehow trying to copy the schedule of the school year in America and I don't like it because our climate is different from theirs.
