My Return and Music

I was at a music camp in Iowa for this past week. It was a lot of fun and work. I nearly fell asleep at during the concerts. Oops.
Today's question is What music do you like to listen to?
The music one listens to can tell a person a bit about themselves. I like almost every song I hear. I've listened to and enjoyed everything from Taylor Swift and Miley Cyrus to Linkin Park and Evanescence. I also like some classical music like Air on G String and I like instrumental music like Moonrise by Brian Crain. I like some jazz and rock, but I prefer the slower kinds. I love singing along to movies, musicals, and TV shows (again, a wide variety in those categories). Heavy metal and most techno has never sit well with me, but I do enjoy some.
Now what do you think that says about me? I'm not entirely sure. I think that it means I'm well rounded and a little bipolar (actually, I know that I'm bipolar to begin with, but the wide variety sort of reflects it, right?). So what do you think your musical tastes say about you?
For more music, you can go to rainymood.com. They have a new piece every day to listen to against the rain sound effects that are played on the site.

My Day and Rain

I was planning on doing these just once a week or once every two weeks, but I don't really have anything to do now that school's out. I hate school as much as most other kids, but now I have nothing to do. I have a bit of a sad life. I do see that there were some page views which makes me pleased though I haven't seen details yet.
Today's question is Do you like the rain? And why?
With me, it's kind of weird. I hate getting wet unless I'm swimming or taking a shower (sometimes I hate it even then), but once the rain is gone and over with, I miss it. I hate thunder and lightning because thunder is just plain too loud and lightning can kill. The book Bridge to Terebithia was inspired, I think, by the author's son's best friend dying by being struck by lightning at the beach.
Depressing things aside, my life has been going fairly nicely. My crush tried to kill me with a Nerf gun, but that's all normal, so all in all, a good day. I hope you had a good day, and if you didn't then I hope you got to find one good thing.

Newbie

So I'm new to this. No duh, seeing as this is my first post. I don't know if anyone will read this, and I don't care. I'm just here to write and to try to be heard. To wonder and to create.
Every post, I think I'll ask a question at the end. A question that might come with a story on my life. After all, this blog is titled My Life. Maybe I should change that, but oh well for now.
Almost all of the basics will be a lie. You'll have to guess which of them aren't. The basics are this: My name is April, the month of diamonds and rain. I'm a girl. I was born right after Valentine's Day. I am fifteen years old.
Now, if anyone's reading this, I have a question for you.
When was the last time you felt happy?
I'm being perfectly serious. Being happy is a relative thing. The things that can make you happy are the things that can make you sad. that's why I think it's harder to get over sadness and anger than joy. Isn't there a saying about how it's the people that love you who'll break your heart? It's true.
A personal example is that of a friend. She's my best friend. She's pretty much my sister. We've had baking accidents together, played together at a school's playground, and complained together. Whenever I go over to her house, we have a game where she claims that I'm a girl scout there to sell cookies. I always ask where the baked goods or coconut are in the house.
Now she's moving. She has a choice on whether to leave or go. She chose to leave. I understand her reasoning, but does that make it any less sad? No.
So I ask a different question this time. What was that thing that made you happy?
Was it your crush smiling at you? Was it getting the winning shot or goal or whatever in a game? Was it the thought of school finally being over? Was it seeing the flowers grow? Was it playing an innocent prank on a friend?
Keep ahold of that thing that made you happy. There are too many sad people in the world.
