WHAT MADE YOU WANT TO BE A MUSIC THERAPIST?
look at my wrist. no, seriously, look at it. you see that pinkish scar that runs from my palm to nearly my elbow? that isn't from baseball, football, or a curious accident. at seventeen, i tried to kill myself and got damn near close to doing so, but my mother was a nurse and a damn good one. she wrapped my arm up, applied the pressure, and called 9-1-1. the doctors said later that if it had not been for her intervention, i would have died no more than three minutes later. i was in treatment for a year and a half, lock up in a treatment facility, blaming the world, pitying those around me, when it was me who was truly worth pitying. i didn't care about anything and had a "fuck the world" attitude; at least i did until i picked up some drumsticks one day and actual included myself in music therapy. my whole life changed. i used music to rebuild my life. it was something to cling to. something to focus on until i dealt with my problem's and most importantly, my brother's death, the main reason i had felt such pain and suffering. music therapy didn't just save me from death. it saved my life. so when i recovered and pulled out of my prolonged situational depression, i set my mind to being a music therapist and helping other's like i had been helped.
WHERE ARE YOU FROM? WHAT BROUGHT YOU HERE?
where am i from? buckeye city, baby! that's where i'm from. you don't know where that is? i honestly can't believe you don't know what i'm talking about. columbus, of course, the home of the ohio state buckeyes. it's the big city in ohio. columbus is to ohio as new york city is to new york. don't diss it, and no, us ohioans are not hicks, just ask my father, he is a college professor at osu. and my mother? she isn't too bad off either. she is a registered nurse.
i came from my beloved town of columbus to here for work. a degree in music therapy doesn't quite guarantee the jobs. it's my passion to do this, also, so i wasn't willing to take a job in columbus flipping burgers when i could find a job that gave me such joy somewhere else.
YOU'RE A HANDSOME FELLOW, YOU GOT A GIRLFRIEND?
why thank you, but no i don't have a girlfriend. i prefer to play the field. playing the field had a lot of advantages. flirt and be with dozens of beautiful women in my life time, get companionship without getting the bullshit, never get disappointed by irrational hopes. it's not that i've never had a girlfriend, it's just, i don't see why i should set myself up for failure.
