Assignment 6 - max marksbury

My brother got me a CD for my 13th birthday. It was one of his favorites when he was teen aged - Arctic Monkeys, Whatever People Say I Am That's What I'm Not. He continued to get me CDs for about a year which was weird because listening to music on discs had been archaic for several years at that point. I didn't really like for the record at first, wasn't really my taste. Little too loud, little too angsty, little dated. Despite all of this I continued to listen to it anyway and it began to grow on me. This served as a jumping off point for listening to music in general and it began to be something I did more and more. Now I'd say listening to music is my primary interest. It's something I pursue every day, learning about new artists and getting into new stuff. There's a very strong connection between music and parts of my life, which is the best part. Not only is it just great to put on something, but I can go back and reminisce about what I was listening to in the past phases of Max Marksbury's life.
Playing music is cool too, but I haven't really taken it as seriously. I've played guitar on and off for 2 years and that's been fun but I don't have much to show for it. Maybe I need an instrument switch. Maybe my interest in it will pick up later and feel more motivated in improving. Right now, I feel like I have enough on my plate to be comfortable where I am.
