In Mr. BG’s, he had us make a list of 10 things we can put a price on and 10 things we couldn’t, And then pick one from each on both lists. The first I’m going to start with is the things I can’t put a price on, and that was Music.
Every morning I wake up and the first thing I do is put my earphones on, and listen to my every morning songs. Different things like, R&B or Reggaeton. My day isn’t complete if i don’t have music. Throughout the school day, I’ll listen to all different songs. Sometimes I’ll listen to the song over and over if I want to learn it. When I’m at home, doing my homework or on tumblr I’ll have my earphones on. In the car, driving, or at the store walking around. You’ll almost always see me with earphones in.. Teachers can’t even get me to take them out sometimes. I find it easier to listen to the teacher when I have 1 earphone in because A) it blocks out the other kids and B) i feel different without them in and I just can’t deal with it. BELIEVE ME, I really am listening to you at the same time. When I’m doing individual work, I like to have my earphones in so when other kids or people talk to me I won’t hear them and therefore I can’t get distracted. Basically, music helps me function.
I listen to all types, and I also go through phases but I grew up
around R&B. Things like Keyshia Cole, and Tyrese to 50 cent. My Dad
lived in Poughkeepsie and I lived in Tribes Hill and he worked in
Balston Spa, so imagine the time. He would always pick me up and bring
me to work with him and we’d always be on the road, so more time to
listen to music on the radio. Different channels like 93.2 or 96.3 or
101.2 and they all play Hip-Hop, to Reggeaton. The other thing I wrote about was what I can put a price on and that would be my cell phone. I don’t go anywhere without my my cell phone. It’s always on me. I feel like If it’s not next to me it has an easier way of getting stolen and it’s an expensive phone. I’m not big on texting anymore but a few months ago I HAD to be texting someone and it got to the point where my parents had to set times for me to get off my phone. I always bring it to school, especially now with all the shootings and bomb threats because I never know when I’m going to need it. I’ve been trying to keep it in my book bag during school, since I realized I don’t need to stay in contact with my friends during class but as soon as I get the chance I’m on it. It’s sad. My phone has everything on it, From Games to Email and I use everything on. I can even use it to type this essay, But I prefer my laptop. My phone is also used for my mp3 player which, in case you didn’t know is my music. My phone is the way I stay in contact with everyone. If I don’t write down a homework assignment I can just call Cayleigh and ask her or if I’m going to be home later and I can just send my dad a text.
Phones in my opinion aren’t what everyone makes them out to be though.
I’m sure if I was living in the mid 1900’s I could survive without it
but now it’s a way to keep yourself busy, and I can find other ways to
do so but if you took away TV and computers I’d be clueless. You’ll
hardly ever see me without my phone, and now you’ll hardly ever see any
of my friends on it because they’ve abused my trust. I can set a code on
it, that makes it so only I can access any part of my phone. 
The only way I can put these two together is both in the music
category. I love music, and my phone as all my songs on it and I can
listen to music anywhere I go. Music and my phone are a big part of my
life. But not my whole life. I enjoy both but I’m not obsessed, although
I couldn’t live without music.
