Hello, I am Terran Freeman. I am an individual of the people of our community. I came to Crossroads because of my grades and anxiety. I came because I had a choice to either go to college or this school that i’ve heard many good things about. It’s obvious what I chose because i’m here at crossroads. This school has been a great place for me to learn and be myself. Everything so much easier and accepting here.
Music is my natural high. I play at least four different instruments which are guitar, piano, drums, and bass. They all came to me as easy, but hard. Each instrument is easy, but depends on how you want to play. I learned piano when I was four and at that same time I learned to compose music. With piano I learned how to sing and I joined choir in school at fourth grade. I’ve been in choir since then. When I turned 14 I asked for a guitar for Christmas and not much else. I got it and I started off fast. My dad started before me and in a few weeks in I was past him. The very next year my brother asked for a drum set and he got it, but he never used it. The drum set then became my possession. Every instrument I learned, I learned on my own. I’m self taught and I think I can do better, but I do not have the money to go to a professional even though lots of people think I don’t need it. I tend to think peer help is way better than being stuck and struggling all alone.
My normal day is going to school, talking to friends, practicing music and playing games. My dad used to take his girlfriend, girlfriend’s son, my brother, and I on hikes to many places around Washington. No matter if it was raining or sunny we would hike that day. I used to be way into fitness and then a big depression hit me to where I just felt like sleeping all day. I let it consume me and my passions. That’s where my girlfriend showed up. She has helped me become the man I used to be and better. We’ve been together for ten months now and it hasn’t been perfect, but we love each other enough to stay.
When I left Lake Stevens High School I got more interested in blacksmithing, woodworking and norse mythology. Each one of those things helps with creativity in a way. When I went camping I found a great stick and I debarked it. After I made it into a great staff with viking runes. I had read and studied a lot about runes to write them.
In conclusion, I have come a long way to be who I am today. I know i’m not the best person, but surely I am one of them. I don’t do drugs, drink, etc.. I am a viking, a leader, an inspirationalist, and a follower of the people. Let me help you by just talking to me.
It's awesome how you've been learning and playing music since you were 4, and that since then you've learned to be able to play 4 different instruments.
