Quickwrite-The Great Musician

          Music is a great influence to my life. Without music, my mom won't have a job she have now which is teaching students piano. It is because of that, I learned how to play piano and violin. My whole family is influenced by music and by saying whole family, I mean my family outside of just my parents and my brothers. My mom's side's family is from the Haka culture so my mom's oldest brother and second brother plays weird Haka instruments. There are a lot of weird Haka instruments. My mom's oldest brother's oldest daughter plays the piano, the flute, and I heard that she once played the cello. As for his second daughter, she teaches the recorder and piano. My mom's second brother also plays and teaches the violin and his oldest son plays and teaches the violin and piano while his second son is still in college with a major of music of piano. That is a lot for music activities. My oldest brother plays the violin and piano while my second brother plays the violin, the viola, and once the piano while I play the piano and violin. I practice both piano and violin every single day so music touched my life every single day. I often wonder what life will be like without music. I mean, everyday after school, I head to my mom's office where I practice piano and violin. Without music, I will have a lot more time doing other things and a lot more time spent on the computer and it will change my life completely.
