Who am I?

Who am I? A simple question most would say. A question most have asked themselves at least once in their life, but most likely multiple times. I don't think it's really a simple question. The answer can be simple, but to really answer the question it becomes quite complex. I could answer with my name, but that's not who I am, that's just a label given to me by my parents so people would have a way to get my attention. I could explain where I'm from or who my parents are, but that's only a small piece of who I am.

A good friend of mine once told me that I was lucky to be going away to college, and shouldn't quickly commit myself to a guy. She said that I should find out who I am first and then I would be happier in my life. She had not done that and felt that she didn't completely know who she was. Well I've done that and I still don't feel like I know who I am. How do I find the answer to this question?

I know I love music. I love playing the oboe. I wish to one day play in an orchestra and bring music to people. I enjoy my family, even the terribly tense moments. I enjoy the few close friends I have. Is that me? Well I guess that's part. I still feel like there is something missing, and it's another half. What some people call "their better half."
