Hey Guys,
When it comes to music I sort of have a taste for all kinds- Classical, jazz, pop, rock, hip hop, blues, electronic, bluegrass, indie etc. 
Almost all of them except heavy metal and metal. 
Anyways, I felt like listening to hip hop today and I thought I'd share some that I heard all day. I don't know how to describe 'the feeling'. 
Please don't tell me I'm weird...

The Day We Were Alone. #2

After having just spent 4 hours playing a barbie game, you would think we would want some sleep now. But guys, picture this - you've eaten more than you would in 5 days, you've had about 10 glasses of coffee, you've had a bath in whipped cream, you've had a home- fashion show, and you haven't slept in 22 hours. This is the recipe of bad ideas. Now see, usually I would know when to stop but this time, when my sister turned to me with her eyes all sparkly and said "It's six in the morning...let's work out!" I didn't stop.
So we grabbed an energy drink each and head out. We laughed -and I don't mean the "hehe" laugh- I mean the howling, echoing, disturbing and not-lady-like-at-all sort of laugh. We quite literally jumped to the gym and it was a winter morning...I was dressed in shorts and my dad's shirt. Not even a t-shirt. And my sister was dressed in pajamas and a tank top. When we reached the gym, we went full on beast mode. All I remember is walking back home all sweaty but no, not so much exercise stopped the laughter just yet. We stopped by the swings.
(Could this get worse? Yes.)
We went on one of those spiny things. We howled and laughed and spat (not on purpose) all over the place and that's when my sister's friend crossed by...We were so embarrassed that the only way we could find to hide our faces was going even faster on the swing.
By now, it was about 8 in the morning and since it was winter- the sun had just found a way to cut through the world for us. My sister then had another idea.
She decided we should watch the sunrise. So, we went back home, got another energy drink, the ipod and packed the left overs of the cake last night. My sister knew a way to sneak up to the rooftop of our society. So here we were, two kids who had had no sleep whatsoever, hiding from guards with cake and energy drinks stuffed in our arms. We finally made our way up without being caught and were in time to set out our little "picnic". We put on some soft music and watched the beautiful sunrise.
Even though I was quite the mess at this point, I'm pretty sure this was one of 'those' moments. The kind of moment you never forget, not in a lifetime. We gossiped and ate and head back down at about 10. We heated the water and went for a long bath together and got dressed. We were ready by 12 and made our way back to the coffee shop where we just had a coffee each. While walking home I remember feeling something weird in my tummy, I remember asking my sister if she felt it too and of course- she did. The moment we stepped in the house we both puked out everything.
We made some warm green tea to make ourselves feel better. It was about 2 at this point and all I remember from then is laying on the bed and talking to my sister. I remember watching her eyelids get heavy and I remember mine feeling the same. The next time my eyes opened were at 10 in the morning the next day and my sister woke up next after two days.
I sometimes wonder what my parents walked into after a short, nice vacation-
Cans of energy drinks, bath tubs full of whipped cream, clothes literally everywhere, wrappers of all sorts of food, two passed out kids, and puke on the floor and the kitchen.
Yeah. I'm pretty sure they figured it out by themselves.

The Day We Were Alone.

Hey Guys!
I'm really sorry about the late post. School's started and the amount of work I suddenly have piled up is not even funny. Anyways, whatever happens and how high the pressure gets I'm going to hold on to something I love- that is writing these posts.
---------------------------------------------------------
Okay, so the first "story time" post I wrote was from my marathon and you guys really seemed to like it and I definitely enjoyed writing it. So, here's another one!
This is from the first time my sister and I were left alone in the house for two days and one night. Keep in mind that she was about in Year 9 and I was in Year 5.
Our parents left at about 8 in the morning and they were to come at about 9 pm the next day. And then began the 37 hours of pure madness.
The moment they left the first thing we did was head out to a walking-distance coffee shop and we had our breakfast there. That consisted of 7 glasses of cold coffee in winter with one patty each. Then we reached back home and put our favourite songs on loud, each room had the same song playing on the speaker. We sang, danced and gossiped. Before we knew it, it was time to take a shower! So obviously. We bought blue, green and red food colouring from the shop downstairs and mixed it in our shower, we also put it in tons of whipped cream. We changed into our bathing suits and had a fun bath together :D
Then, we put on some face masks and did our nails in the most ridiculous way possible. Soon enough we were hungry and it was about 6pm so we decided to have our lunch. This is where things REALLY started to get bizarre. We called up McDonalds and ordered every drink they had and 6 burgers ( 3 for each) to go with that. Also, don't ever forget the 4 large packets of french fries. We waited for it to arrive by playing a little game. We made about 30 chits each of them with a little dare in it. She went on my facebook and I went on hers. The chits had something stupid to say or post and we were forced to do it. This ended with me being extremely embarrassed and deactivating my account. By this time the food had arrived and we ate it while watching a movie. Once the movie got over, we decided to save some of the drinks and the french fries for a midnight snack. My sister then baked a cake and I prepared the icing which we ate as a sweet dish while watching F.R.I.E.N.D.S
Then, my sister and I had a little fashion show. Before we both presented ourselves each dress had to be acc to a theme. We kept themes as "The Plastic Girl", "The Gangsta", "The Wannabe", "The Nerd" etc. By this time it was about midnight. We ordered some crisps, biscuits and chocolates alongside the drinks and french fries we already had. We then surfed the internet to find an interesting game to play. We played 'Plants Vs. Zombies' till about 2am but then we got *don't judge* distracted by a barbie game. Now the funny thing about this is, at first we started playing the game because it was annoying us. It was annoying the way she talked, the way the game was presented and how everything was pink. Now from this point on, my memory is sort of blurry because all I remember is being really into the game. The next time we looked out our window it was officially the next day. We checked the time. 6am. We had just spent 4 hours playing a barbie game.

Inspired by- The Fault In Our Stars by John Green

Through the ups and downs we have been through there was a high possibility of us never reaching any of the places I wish we did. But for now, for this moment if there was one thing I was certain of was that I was connected to that familiar soul, quite literally- in a numb, sad sort of way. And for this moment we weren't done just yet. The story may not have a happy ending- actually to be honest, it most probably won't but it was that unfinished, unsaid feeling I felt around us. As though even if you were to separate us by a thousand miles I would feel what he would feel. The charisma that surrounded us was something so strong, so magnetic and powerful that made me want to wait for time to age so I could discover the annoyingly-exciting mystery but at the same time- not really. The powerful vibes that lived between us would spend most of their time scaring me.

Warm-up and Cool-down Routine

*Before running or jogging

WARM UP ROUTINE-

1) If working out in the morning- walk for the first 15-20 minutes.
If working out in the evening- walk for the first 10 minutes.
*Avoid working out at night.



2) Front Lunges- Don't hold the position. Do about 15 each side.


3) Find an elevated position and do about 10 foot presses each foot.


4) High Knee Jumps. Do about 15.




5) Shake off the legs and start your run!





COOL DOWN ROUTINE-

Note- For the cool down routine all my friends who run with me usually just walk for a while and then stretch out their legs for about five minutes. For me this doesn't seem to work. My knee and my ankle begin to pain a lot to the point where it gets hard for me to walk straight. This cool down routine is just what I follow and it seems to work out for me but I'm not sure if it will for everyone else.

1) Walk for at least 15 minutes.




2) 15 Foot presses on each side.



3) Shake off each leg. If you feel your muscles are still quite tense do more foot presses. If not, then you can begin stretching. Copy the picture below, I don't know how to describe that :P




4) If your leg still seems to be tense, then again copy this picture :P I need to learn the names of these exercises :|


5) To finish it off, I don't know if it is supposed to help but I do about 30 push-ups. It helps my workout and  helps relax my muscles.




I'm no pro, but I hope this helped in some way. 
Happy Running!

My Top Three Gameplays

#3 
THE WALKING DEAD.
*in order

5) The Walking Dead Webisodes: Torn Apart- This story is about how Hannah became a walker.
4) The Walking Dead Webisodes: Cold Storage- This is mostly about the early days of the apocalypse.
3) The Walking Dead: Rise Of The Governor- How the governor gained power in Woodbury
2) The Waking Dead: Dead Reckoning- The story of a character 'Shane Walsh' in the apocalypse.

1) The Walking Dead (Video Game) - Telltale Game- The story of a character 'Lee Everett', the player gets to make the decisions and the story changes accordingly.



#2
HEAVY RAIN.

Heavy Rain is a thriller in which the player can choose their fate. In total, they are about 18 different endings and different choices that you make result in the endings. Throughout the story you play from the viewpoint of about 4 different characters. The plot line revolves around an 'origami killer' who kidnaps children and drowns them in heavy rain, he leaves behind clues and various missions for the parents to complete if they wish to save their child. An FBI Agent, A Private Investigator,  A Journalist and the first father who wishes to complete all the missions to save his son set out to find the killer.









#1
THE LAST OF US

The Last of Us is an action-adventure survival horror game. The player plays through the character 'Joel' who travels across post-apocalyptic United States. He is escorting a young girl, Ellie who the fireflies believe may be the key cure to the infection. The two of them travel defending and fighting themselves from zombie-like creatures who are actually humans that were infected by some sort of fungi. What I really like about this gameplay (apart from its realistic sound editing) is the way the game develops the story. In the beginning, Joel and Ellie both are extremely blunt towards each other and don't get along because of their own personal reasons. As the game builds, the two characters have a strange sense of liking and connection. Apart from these reasons, the ending definitely is one of the major reasons of why it's on the top number.
