Writing
Good morning! I am honored to be here on such special occasion. Today, I am going to talk about how music has impacted my life.
There was a time when I felt so stressed. I was so worried about my academic performance that I could hardly sleep during the night. Therefore, I was sleepy and exhausted the next morning, which made me unable to concentrate on classes.
Then one of my classmates advised me to listen to music at night. It really worked. I have been on a sound sleep since I started to listen to music. It is relaxing and helps me forget my troubles, giving me strength, hope and a sense of satisfaction. As for me, music is just like of a ray of warm sunshine.
Music can change the life of us . Why not have a try whenever you have an opportunity
