Humans of State High

“[I feel] overwhelmed by homework and how much time I need to dedicate to staying on top of it and making sure I understand all of it. With time I don’t have because I go to practice and then I go home and I try and memorize music for choir. But otherwise, ya know. It’s an uphill battle… but that’s a choice I make consciously. It makes things more difficult, being a music student makes things more difficult because the blocks that I would’ve had to take study halls or other electives I’m interested in are replaced by choir. I love singing because I think music is a really incredible way to manage emotions, it’s a really beautiful way to communicate and touch on someone’s emotions and I want to be able to recreate that.”
