Mondays~

For once we finally had a warm day in almost 5 months, and I really took the opportunity to enjoy. Shorts, flip flops, the works, but it's more than just the change of outfit. Just feeling the sun again is enough to make me happy. It's looking rainy for the rest of the week, but here's hoping that the sunny days will be here soon.

Video Games:
It makes a surprising return! Nothing to specific to mention here, but I've began taking up Super Mario 64 again. It's good to have a game that I can subconsciously mess around with while thoughts race through my head. It's amazing to have a game that you know so well that you don't even have to put a conscious effort into doing anything. This game has really melded with me, and I hope it stays this way.

Music:
I can happily say that I've near perfected "Let It Be" on piano. I'm hoping I can convince Mr. Fowler to let me play it during the next coffee house. I think a piano would be a great addition to the guitar playing, and I'm sure I wouldn't be the only one to consider using it. I don't think it would take too much to convince Hannah to play something for us. Anyway, thanks to Rachel, I've been exposed to a really beautiful song by Depeche Mode; "Somebody". It was a pleasant surprise compared to what I've heard from Depeche Mode previously. I even took a few moments to transpose the opening on piano. I'm sure she'll enjoy it if I ever have a chance to play piano while she's around.

Personal Life:
The big news for today, exercise. Avery has convinced me to try this workout game he's had for some time, and it's offered quite the workout. My only quarrel with it so far is that it seems unaccepting of my physical limitations. For example: it tells me to pace myself and then tells me I'm running to slow. And this is on easy! >_< There's only so much this body can do. The fact that I burned 214 calories (almost my entire breakfast) in only 20 minutes leaves me hopeful though. I'm willing to keep trying. I think I may even squeeze in a brisk walk in the afternoons if the weather stays nice. I'm a little doubtful that I can get to 280 before prom, but it's definitely worth trying!
