This text is an example of a non-academic text.

It looks more like a blog because the writer was narrating his/her experience in learning how to swim.
He/She expressed his/her opinions about swimming and how it feels to learn it for the first time.

“Learning something new can be a scary experience.” – Although this line is believed by many, it did not
come from reliable sources like research papers do.

PERFORMANCE TASK #1
 MUSIC AS A LIFESTYLE

People listen to music. Most are hardcore enthusiasts who memorize all the lyrics, the
beat, the types of instruments used, and every little thing noticeable in a song. In short, it's
someone who has completely and willingly let music take over his or her life. While others are
just simply the casual listeners, the types of people who only know how to sing the chorus part,
sometimes they even struggle to do so. Whichever you fit in doesn't matter. But one thing's for
sure; everybody loves music. I personally haven't seen a single soul who dislikes all kinds of
genres. Because if someone like that actually exists, it's just plainly ridiculous.

Music is essentially the only thing we need to get us through the day. It's the answer to
every question and solution to every problem. At the end of the day, music makes everything
better and no day is complete without it. We aren't complete without it, either. We want it to
completely take over every single part of us. The soul, the mind, and the body: everything. And
so we let it take its course. We breathe it in until it consumes us.

Music has changed our lives and continues to do so everyday. It has taught us lessons, and
given us strength when we have felt weak. It gives us hope when we want to give up and
reassures us that we are not alone and misunderstood when we feel like we are. Music serves as a
friend to us. It brings the kind of comfort that nobody else ever could. Music is the only true
magic in the world, and it is something we can not live without. Therefore, music isn’t just a
thing, it’s a lifestyle, the way of life. After all, we’re just individuals who want a constant
reminder that we’re living.
