I am a bit claustrophobic and sometimes cannot even imagine being in a space where too many people are vying for oxygen at the same time. The mere thought of it makes my throat begin to close and leaves me gasping for air. However, I would risk the shut-down if I could go to a Tomorrowland festival with headliners that I absolutely love. It would be

DJing is one of my favorite past times. My love for music started in the womb. The sound just takes me away to a happy place. This year I get the chance to show the world how I perceive music.

The Hubble Space Telescope is a basic reflector with a mirror and a long cylinder open to receiving light at one end. Its mirrors gather infrared and ultraviolet light that floods into it from across the universe and direct it towards where its ''eyes" are located. Ultraviolet astronomy cannot be conducted on earth as the gases in the upper atmosphere

Lollapalooza, a music festival in Grant Park, IL, was the reason I went to the states, and the reason I'll never forget it.
Summers used to be synonymous with the beach, the ocean, long days outside reading and playing, listening to music. They were for lying around until the sun started to disappear beyond the lowest hill in the west and the bats

The fire crackled quietly as I threw the last of the kindling and leaves on top of the wood. For an April night it was pretty warm. Our first state park camping trip of the year was getting off to a good start. The blue glow of Heidi's cellphone cast a long shadow on the teen's face.

Women's Fashion Tops
When it comes to women's fashion tops, I see the same things year-after-year.
I went through a phase of following a lot of the Parisian fashion houses closely. Now, admittedly, I've never been one to follow trends. Not with clothes or with electronics. Not unless I'm held down by the neck and forced to by admissions of slowed

Even if you don't know the Roland TR-808 drum machine by name, you’ve almost certainly heard it.

I have learned from experience that a camp bed is essential when camping long-term. If I plan on staying at the lake for more than a night or two, I make sure that I have my tent cot and mattress pad with me. If I don't, I'll wake up with a backache which dampens my camping trip.
Everyone's needs differ but many years of camping in a teepee tent has

Beach camping California beaches is something that everyone should experience in their lifetime. I've done a lot of traveling in recent years and find nothing better than Pismo Beach camping. The beautiful area is worth an extended visit. Unlike camping at the lake, the ocean serves as the backdrop at the incredible beaches you sleep on in California.

My musical journey has defined my life ever since I was a little girl. My maternal grandparents played stringed instruments for fun. On some of my visits to their home, they'd pull out their guitar, banjo, and harpsichord so they could have impromptu jam sessions. They loved bluegrass and could play a few songs together.
