This I believe

I Believe In Music. Music definitely changed my life for the better. It helps me when I'm moody. I think music is one of the best things about life. So I believe in music. Every single day of my life, I listen to music. Usually from my iPhone, computer, etc. But even when I'm out on a camping trip or I forgot to bring my music player, I make music. I can use my mouth, I use my hands, feet, tongue and anything else that I can make it with. That is also why I learn to play music. I play bass, guitar, drums, etc. That is the beauty of music, it's everywhere. And music can also affect your life in different ways. You can gain friends from music. You can gain popularity. You can gain money and so much more.

The type of music you play and/or listen to, really shows who you are. If a person listen's to Metal, it shows their personality. Music can also change how a person acts and how the person dresses. Music creates drama, gossip, fun and can also be very educational.

Even if someone was deaf, he or she would still be able to make music. He or she won't be able to hear the music he plays, but making music and knowing that you have talent is good to know. That guy can also perform and watch as the people applaud for him or her. Also, other than being everything I justed listed, music is also human-like. They are all different, there's different lengths, different volumes. They get old and die off, there will always be new ones. Music basically, describes life. It's indescribable, even with a 500 paged book.

So after listing all these examples, it probably shows that I really, really believe in Music. That's why one of my favorite quotes is "No Music, No Life" (Author Unknown). Music really helps me with almost anything. I will never be able to go through a day in my whole life without any signs of music or anything relating to music. So basically, I believe in Music.

1066 War Games

The first game by BBC, was a simple yet mind challenging game. You need to have a good plan and a strong choice to be able to win. In the game by Y8, it is shows more detail and war strategies. Being patient and waiting for perfect attack times are necessary in this game. The 2 games were educational and enjoyable at the same time. The game makes you want to try again and again even after you fail. It is also fun to see the historical war be used in a childish game. This games shows how one small false move can be lethal to your army. William, Harold and Hardrada definitely had some sort of plan. Numbers also show to be a big influence in the war. After facing Hardrada, the game shows that Harold and his men were exhausted from the travel and war. Losing several trained men in the first war, Harold had hardly any chance of winning against William. Someone who hasn't studied the Medieval War would learn quite a number of facts from these two games. The games are descriptive, enjoyable and accurate in facts. It also gets the details and make them easier to understand.
