Day 6 of replicating Christian Bale commentary

Today was pretty productive! I loved this day! Very nice. I'm glad it happened. What made it so great? We'll find out... soon enough... sooooonnnnn enouggghhhhhh.

Exercise//Health - I had my usual breakfast. Oats and then for lunch, I gouged out a bit. Yk there was some delectable chocolate pudding in the fridge. Delectable maybe doesn't fit too well there, it was good but that word sounds like it should be used for countable nouns. No actually its fine, I checked. I'm not one for chocolate pudding, but the one that's kinda cakey and hot and comes with ice cream, I can't resist that. Don't bring that near me! I think it's mud pudding actually. I felt a bit bad eating it since I didn't really exercise. I've been getting lazy with exercise btw. Like nah, I don't wanna do this exercise! I don't wanna do this one either! But like obviously it's in the workout for a reason... Anyway, I made up for it by going on a little walk in the mountains... little I say but my legs were itching and my gut was aching after but it was fun! Exercise felt good again. We're probably going again tomorrow so I might skip my morning exercise again.

I of course listened to death grips on my walk and yes, it was fire! I wish I had Ex military downloaded or didn't forget Bottomless Pit existed until like the end of my walk. I was like "there's a perfect DG album for this... THE MONEY STORE!" no, you oaf! It's Bottomless Pit and Ex military!

Language - I did more duolingo and some of those people need to chill out. Like I got in early, yk. I got to the top spot. I closed the app and I shit you not, as soon as i close it, I get a notification saying "**** ***** took your number 5 spot" okay... NUMBER 5??? I WAS JUST AT NUMBER 1??? Did I go take it back? Hell no. I use duolingo to keep my friend streak alive and THATS IT! I am not spending extra time I could use to learn language more effectively on an app that hardly teaches you. It is fun to watch big number get bigger tho, in another way, I too am a slave to this system in the form of the streaks. Anyway, I learned about like colours in my immersion. Yk azul y roja. Any fans of the worst rapper ever in chat?? Red or blue?? This rapper had a line like "I like purple because I blue her back out and left her on red. Get it like red and blue makes purple" and yeah, he did actually explain his joke... right after making it. It's so shit. I hate that guy. I'm sorry for using the beautiful language that is Spanish to reference this dumb hip hop artist. 

Reading - LIKE LIKE LEFT HER ON RED LIKE RED AND BLUE MAKE PURPLE!!! damn now I'm disrespecting Malcolm X too. What about that stuck out to me today? Wait hang on, I've got Gilmore Girls on. I love Gilmore Girls. That mom is so charming. What the fuck. Uhh sorry... Malcolm X right! Im at the part where he explains how he got involved in the Harlem hustle scene. By most legal definitions what he describes are crimes and who he talks about are criminals but I don't like to view it that way. One thing I always appreciated about my parents was that they never created separation between us and criminals, criminals were and still are people to me because yk my parents knew people with criminal records and Malcolm never calls these people criminals, he understands that they did what they had to to get by, if anyone should be labeled a criminal, it's whatever white man made it so crime is the only way these people could thrive. He describes a tightness in the community. Yk they're a family and it's not even that Malcolm saw them just as people, in some ways he looked up to them and I think that's cool! Just because someone has a record doesn't make their input any less important than someone with a clean record. Like Malcolm has been to jail...  still getting there though. 

Study - I'm doing this thing so I can teach English and I've been doing that. I passed an assessment today so... one step closer. Can I be honest tho, Im not enjoying this. I'm not as excited as I should be about this and maybe somethings wrong with me or whatever. I was thinking of just refunding it and buying pot but we'll see it through. 

Write - I literally just finished writing. I'm writing a review. Hmmm do I have any writing advice? I gotta have something. I guess don't over or under explain things. What I'd recommend doing is opening a Google doc or wherever you have access to multiple colours to highlight your work and pick three colours one for description, one for dialogue and one for story progression and highlight each respective aspect. By the end, you want a good balance of all three of these, it's oksy to lean slightly or even a lot in certain scenes. Tho this is mostly for fic, I'll do more general advice as we go on

Media - I watched a movie called The Man who stole the sun and it's so Taxi Driver core but also very much its own thing and I wanna write a full review on it. It's about this guy, he's a teacher and he builds an atom bomb in his apartment. Then I watched some Community too. Two episodes. One of my favorites the apocalypse now one with the Greendale Commercial as well as the Foosball one which I think doubled as an episode where Annie destroyed Abeds copy of dark knight with Christian bale commentary. That was a top tier episode! I loved it. Then I read an issue of Moon Knight. That comic has a beautiful style so hardboiled, I love it. LET THEM FINISH!!! Nah, I'm done, nothing much else to say.

Rambles - I've given up on so many different things and hobbies and the like and I've stuck to a lot like writing, like reading, like idk but I always feel so bad for putting a hobby down and it's like that's okay! I realized my time here is limited as with us all and we should be doing what we love most! I love writing and that's the thing I try to make time for every day, that's the thing I'll get sad about when I miss it in a day. I kinda wish I had more social hobbies though like maybe a sport or something. I'm not sure yet and it's harder to meet people tbh so yk it can feel hopeless but whatever, maybe i can join a bookclub or even start one. I'd be happy to start one with my mutuals but I want this to be offline because thats what I need rn to connect more with people.

Anyway, good night Moth Nation!! We rest well tonight. The above picture is me writing these blogs if you even care (it's geordie greep).
