          There are two things that I absolutely cannot survive without—my blackberries with earphones, and my watch. Many people might think that it doesn’t make sense to carry a phone and a watch, since you can see the time just by turning on the electronic device, but time is one of my pet peeves. For me, time seems to be a rule that you cannot disobey; the guilt that I carry when I’m late exceeds those that I get when I do something wrong. I have to have two time devices to help me make sure that I am keeping track of the time; I get very nervous when I don’t know the word “when”. As I continue growing, I realize that the time management plays a huge role in my everyday living, which gives me even more reasons to keep time close to me. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T7h4jUvqm6I&playnext=1&list=PLC39BC94D0D11EFC6&feature=results_main

            The reason for me carrying my Blackberry with the earphones is because I cannot survive one day without listening to music. It’s just something I got used to over time, and it has turned into something even stronger than hobby. When I don’t have it with me, I just seem empty, frustrated, and life just seems to be without color anymore; it might seem like exaggeration, but if music is not given to me in one day, it will ruin my mood and very possibly ruin the quality of that day.

            If the things that I carry define who I am, I guess that I am a person that many times rushes through things. I hate tedious, slow, and boring work; the clock seems to be ticking and I see time wasted. Acknowledging the fact that I hate wasting time, you can also anticipate why I carry music around with me. When I’m not doing anything, all I can think of is time wasted, time wasted; so music is something that I think that will never be something that wastes time, and every minute of it is priceless.
