That time I hijacked the music at a graduation party.

So, I was at a party when I noticed some music playing. I found the speaker near the food tent, and a phone connected to it via bluetooth. All that played was bland, overrated Pop music. Every songs sounded way too similar, and they were all about love/romance, because apparently that's all that matters in these poorly sung 1st grade poetry performances over some drum loop + bassline labeled as a song. 

But for me, I realized something, In my heart, I knew. I knew that I had a mission, a quest I must perform. 

During the first attempt, I pressed the bluetooth button, which cut the connection between the speaker & the phone, causing the music to stop abruptly. I tried connecting my phone to the first thing that showed up when I pressed “connect new device.” 

An old guy came up, seemingly the owner of the phone who just put on a top hits playlist on spotify and called it a day. He assumed I was trying to get the speaker to start, or chose certain music. When talking to him, I soon found out that the name of the speaker was “Trailblazer” which was one of the names on the list of parable bluetooth devices from my phone (and not the one I connected with first). I added the speaker as a new device.

Everytime I turned the bluetooth back on and pressed connect, it would just connect to the guys phone rather than mine. I moved his phone out of the way so the speaker would pick up my signal first. It did, I already had a song ready.

As I told a group of girls & one boy, I consider it my mission to spread my music around, shed light onto underrated artists who deserve it, & allow people to hear their favorite songs that they’ve never heard before. 

So basically, I hijacked the speaker & started playing my first ever live set as a DJ. 

I unleashed an evil villain, as I announced to everyone what I had done.
