It's nice to let the people you help know about you, the person. Not you, the comcaster. <br /><br />Ever notice how many techy people have played or still play instruments? The connection between the two is strong.

I thought you had taken my identity and changed it just a tad. When I heard you were a twitter helper, I thought maybe you were just "putting on this personality" for kicks. <br /><br />Now, of course I know that's not true, but that's just to explain the scare this post gave me. I am a music education major myself and heavily into technology (particularly internet gaming) and have recently decided not to pursue teaching as a career for multiple personal reasons. I play percussion myself, along with a multitude of other instruments such as the clarinet, piano, guitar, and bass guitar. <br /><br />To stay on topic of your original blog, my band teacher in high school is the person who's had one of the biggest impacts on my life. He really believed in me and made me feel strong and capable. I accomplished a lot in my life due to him and he always helped me to continue recognizing and pursuing my dreams. While I may not want to go into the same line of work as him, his positive influence in my life will always travel with me throughout the rest of my years. He will always be like a second father to me.Dana Linnellhttp://danalinnell.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1072518758994551374.post-10996912767023375172009-12-23T11:50:33.836-05:002009-12-23T11:50:33.836-05:00Hi Bonnie,
