i'm with you all the way

Wilkommen

Aufsteigende Flügel is German for "Soaring Wings", a beautiful piano piece composed by Masashi Hamauzu. It is a retreat, a place for me to speak my mind, my thoughts, and my ideas. I bid you all welcome and please, enjoy your stay while you can.

In case you're wondering, the song you hear playing in the background is called Memories, composed and performed by Kow Otani for the best PS2 game of all time, Shadow of the Colossus. This was one of the many unused tracks from the game, so I thought I might do it justice playing this lovely track here. It may take a while to load, but please pause it and give it a good listen. Otani makes good music (unfortunately, this is the only one I know of), and this is one of them. Enjoy!

I realised that when you swim without taking in breaths, it makes the whole thing easier. You only pant at the end when you really have to resurface and breathe in, but before that part comes, swimming seems less tiring than before. Who says you have to follow every rule accordingly? They don't call it "Freestyle" for nothing. Take the word's literal meaning.

Free.

Style.

Allow me to refer to the dictionary to better accentuate on this.

Free =
5.exempt from external authority, interference, restriction, etc., as a person or one's will, thought, choice, action, etc.; independent; unrestricted.
6.able to do something at will; at liberty: free to choose.

So what if "Freestyle" is done without taking those minuscule breaths? It is free, and to be free is to be unrestricted from the rules that bind it.

Ah well, I did twenty laps today in the pool after stuffing myself with doughnuts yesterday eve. I thought it wasn't enough so I added my workouts by going to the gym. Unfortunately, I only lasted for less than half an hour in here. I lack stamina, that's why I get so exhausted easily. But my time was not wasted there.

There was a weighing machine there.

*smirk*

Latest update on weight: 47kg!

Well, today's tiring workout managed to drive away that feeling lurking within me last night, and I was glad it disappeared. Even if it was for a brief while. I'm sure anyone would appreciate things like that even if it happened for a brief while.

Like the lives of every human being. Your lives. My lives. Our lives.

Now that is very brief, and unexpected as well.

But no, I'm not going to continue with that. I'm sure you've heard these very words from another person's mouth, and perhaps you are tired of hearing the same words from me. So, for your comfort, I will not continue.

Oh yes, for those who have not realised it, I have changed my layout. Everything is there, except for my profile picture and the music. But don't worry, I'll try my best to fit in the song. Somewhere. Unfortunately, I could not fit in the profile picture anywhere so...yea, I'm afraid I have to do away with that.

Well, I shall end my post for today. There is nothing much to say, no doughnuts to brag about, no muscles to destroy a building. And least of all, no evil plans to take over the world.

So long, and farewell. Till next we meet~

PS: I just thought I should put up this picture while I still have the chance (connection is good now). This picture is irrelevant, of course, but...well, I like it.


This is Storm, from Final Fantasy Versus XIII. For some reason, I imagine myself as him, sitting on that throne looking bored. Hehe, I just like the idea of me being an emperor, king, or a lord. Oh well, that's pretty much about it. Cya~
