Why do conservatives say that you have to lock your doors nowadays?

I live in an area with a lot of Mexicans, I know, scary, but I never ever lock any the 4 doors to my house. Hell, one time I forgot to close...

Most of the introductory music classes are going to be covering the structure and form of classical music from centuries ago. (Orchestras were the 'bands' back then.) The courses will talk about music theory, which can be kind of a 'dry' topic, at least in my opinion. (I happen to be a guitarist and songwriter, but even though I learned some music theory, I don't think I use it much, but maybe a little.)

To me, music is indeed kind of a hobby, but I love it and have been at it for 35 years now. (I started playing guitar at age 14). It will always be part of my life. Will I ever make a career out of it? Nope.

College music classes won't be talking about Miley Cyrus or Justin Bieber or almost any other modern band, put it that way.

Music is fun to play.

Taking college courses in music is an entirely different matter, and yes, I do think it would be difficult for a person with no prior musical knowledge.

It depends whether or not you are going for a fictional/anime feel or not. If you are, I think that you should make her hair a deep purple or a dark blue. If not, I suggest that you give her black or dark brown hair. Otherwise, I would suggest:
·Eyes-either Hazel or Blue
·I think she should have a thinner body, and mostly wear dark coloured and comfortable clothing (i.e. sweat pants, hoodies, etc...)
·I think just to put a twist into the story, her love interest could be the exact opposite of her. Maybe he could be athletic, outgoing, and fun to be around, like a sort of class clown. Alsi he could have a bubbly personality and jis always happy.

I hope this helps and good luck with the story
