I am a junior at Mountain View High School, and I plan to study zoology in college. One of my passions is working with animals. My hobbies include playing guitar and bass, singing, rock climbing, and drawing. My favorite shows are Gravity Falls, Adventure Time, and Twin Peaks. My favorite animals are monkeys, bears, cats, wolves, and owls. Music is a big part of my life, and I love playing and listening to it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">My core values in life are adventure, balance, creativity, curiosity, and caring for others. I love exploring new things and places because it\u2019s fun to have adventures. Balance is very important to me because I don\u2019t want to be burnt out all the time, and I need time in my day for myself. As an artist and musician, I constantly need creativity for all of my projects and problems. Curiosity is a core value because when I\u2019m very curious about something I feel like a happy little monkey researching whatever I\u2019m curious about. Caring for others is important to myself and everyone around me because it brings me joy when the people I know are happy and I always want to be someone to lean on when people need me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I am currently passionate about music. Music has always been present in my life. My entire family plays instruments and can sing, and I\u2019ve been raised around music for as long as I can remember. From piano lessons to choir, I\u2019ve been learning music for a long time, and I love listening to it. I am currently focusing on singing, guitar, and bass. In my band, I\u2019m the lead singer and bassist. I also love playing guitar, and I\u2019m on the board of the guitar club at Mountain View. For guitar, I\u2019m heavily inspired by artists like James Eichman and Adrianne Lenker. In my music, I want to embody the emotion I find in theirs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I chose to become a Freestyle student because I wanted to dedicate more time to art. I hated the all AP\/honor course school days I chose last year because it killed my creativity and left me completely burnt out all the time. At Freestyle, I get to use that creativity in my assignments, and I\u2019ve noticed that it\u2019s not only more enjoyable but also more motivating since I\u2019m doing things I actually want to do. I appreciate the better work-life balance at Freestyle and I love how we incorporate art into our school work. It has a totally different atmosphere than regular school, and I like it a lot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>My name is Blythe Celia Gaderlund.
