Hi, everyone! This is a guest posting for Fit Chocoholic. I don't have a blog, but Fit Chocoholic has been staying with me this week. She asked me to write a post for her when she went to her conference. This was a very special week, because I got to spend time with Fit Chocoholic (who I only see every three years). Is there someone you only get to see every few years? I am not much of a cook and can't offer much advice on exercise, but my post will be about music. I have been playing the piano for eight years, and I also play the ukulele, guitar, and marimba. What's a marimba you might ask? It's a large wooden keyboard instrument that's similar to a xylophone. I am in the front ensemble of my high school marching band. This week has been our band camp, and it has been very fun. Being in the band requires a lot of time. I am doing someone band-related six days out of the week. That's a lot of dedication! Do you have any activities outside of school like band or a sport? Besides playing music, I love to listen to music. There are so many different genres to listen to. I enjoy Christian, pop, some country, 80s music, and some movie soundtracks. The soundtracks to movies aren't just the songs you hear. They also contain the music that really sets the mood of a certain scene. What music do you like? This week has been really fun with Fit Chocoholic! She is my best friend. Thanks for reading my post.

  1. I'd never heard of marimba, that's so cool that you play it! I've always wished I was more musical. I hope Gen is having a great time at her conferance!

  2. I had never heard of a marimba, but that sounds so cool to play! :) I just play the piano. :D I'm glad that gen is having fun at the conference! Outside of school I like to babysit, practice my piano, read, watch a murder mystery and try to guess who did it (or do the same with House Hunters), and just have fun! :)
