Day 2: Rock


Hi guys!
                Rock week continues! Today I listened to a mixture of Black Veil Brides, Bruno Mars, Redlight King, Daughtry, Foo Fighters, and a whole bunch of other stuff. To be honest, I don’t really see how Bruno Mars is rock. I thought his music was more pop-ish but what do I know? If that’s what iTunes says it is, that’s what it is. I mean, when has the internet ever been wrong? You know what I came up with yesterday right after I sent my post? I should probably say what’s going on in my life because that has an effect on my mood and emotions and stuff too.

So where should I begin? Umm… *drums fingers on chin* Today is my boyfriend’s birthday *throws small party* but I don’t get to see him. LI’m grounded and  I haven’t seen him in, wow, getting close to three months now. Dang. But it’s cool, I still got him something. I got him a Diablo 3 t-shirt but I think it might be just a tad too big. Oh well, it’ll get to him one way or another. What else? I might get to quit IB after this year! I want to so badly because I think it’s just too much for me to handle.

But any who, let’s get down to business! (To defeat the Huns! Did they send me daughters when I asked for sons?!)
… I have no regrets!

Thanks for reading and please comment below with any comments, concerns, questions, or randomness you want to throw my way! Bye guys! *waves with both hands*

Day 1: Rock


Hi guys!
Today I started my test with rock music. To be honest, I don't feel all that different. It might just be because it's my first day with it, but still. I would have to say that this is one of my top two favorite genres of music. Well, it’s this and metal but any who.  So yeah, not really feeling all that different from yesterday. Soap, let’s do today’s recordings, shall we?
·        General Mood?: 1
·        Behavior?: 5
·        Genre Listened To?: rock
·        Wants?: kind of want Skittles, ooh like the new green apple ones!!
So this is how I’m feeling today. Thanks for reading and please comment below with any comments, suggestions, questions, or any other randomness you would like to throw my way! Bye guys!! :)

Introduction




Hi guys!
My name's Melisa and this is my first post and I thought that I would maybe explain the purpose of this whole . . . thing. I'm in my final year of the IBMYP program and I have to do what's called a Personal Project. It's sort of like doing my senior exit project my sophomore year, which is a real pain let me tell you. My topic is music therapy and I came up with the most ingenious idea of testing the affects that music can have on a person's emotions and whatnot on me. Cool, right? So any who, I have to document what changes certain genres of music have on my everyday life.
As to get an accurate reading of my normal behavior and mental state, I haven't listened to any music today (with the exception of music playing over the loud speakers in stores, I have no control over that.) 
·         General Mood?: 5
·         Behavior?: 5
·         Positive Levels?: 7 or 8
·         Genre Listened To?: n/a
·         Cravings?: I want to sleep, like, right now
So . . . yeah. Thanks for reading! Please comment below and tell me what kind of music you listen to and how you think it affects you. This would help me out immensely. 
Bye guys!
