I'll never play in public

Great. I despise this whole 'street piano' thing everybody does. Everyone has to make a video of it in hopes they become viral. It feels like the ultimate cheap attention grab lol.

I grew up kind of musical, and now I'm a music teacher teaching Choir, Guitar, Composition & band... sometimes AP music theory.

It's super fun and fulfilling and I get to constantly develop my own abilities as I go along. But yeah I'm not a fan of performing and hate being asked. I'm happy to go all out with energy and enthusiasm in my classes but ask me to perform and I'll wriggle my way out as hard as I can haha. Partly cause i'm generally shy, but partly I guess due to some dramatic and traumatic failed performances growing up that just embarrassed me!

That being said, my parents were pretty off-hand compared to yours. They got me to guitar lessons to start off and that's about it. No questions asked when I chose music as my University course choice, even though I knew at the time it was useless for my future (well apparently not that useless in the end)
