post #6

I just finished folding my laundry. It has been sitting in a large pile in my room for quite a few days now and I finally got around to folding it and putting it away. I think that is enough work to make my day qualify as being productive. I also practiced my horn for about 4 hours. It was pretty exciting. I played some scales, long tones, lip trills, etc. That was probably the most interesting part of my day. Besides practicing horn I also taught a violin/piano lesson and rode my bike around Sacramento a lot. Right now I am drinking a large glass o orange juice. It is delicious. Here is a picture of it:




As you can see, there is very little orange juice left in the glass. That is because I just drank most of it. Directly  behind my glass of juice you can see my bible. It adds a religious flair to my glass of orange juice. I do not think orange juice is mentioned anywhere in the bible, but I am sure that if Jesus tried some, he would like it a lot. Who doesn't like orange juice? Who knows, he might have even had some at the last supper.One can only contemplate how religion would be different if there had been orange juice in the bible. Instead of drinking grape juice at communion, we could be having orange juice. Behind my bible you can see the faded but still smiling face of Pavaratti. He likes orange juice too.

This is my fifth blog post. That is why I titled it post #5. I almost forgot to write a blog post today, but fortunately I remembered to before I snuggled into my luxurious bed for a good nights sleep. I shudder to think of the many and serious consequences that would have befallen me if I had forgotten to write in my blog for the day. Too many to even know. Today I slept in really late. Normally this might have bothered my conscience, but I justified my excessive sleeping with the fact that today is the Sabbath, a day a rest. After my breakfast and shower I rode my bike to church. After church I practiced my horn and then came home and ate a tasty tuna sandwich. Then I went back to school and practiced some more, and then after spending some quality time with my chums  I returned home, where I am right now. I am at my kitchen table right now, updating my blog on Kate's laptop. Next to me is a bar of dark chocolate. I have to continually eat from it because I keep forgetting how is tastes. It is delicious. On the other side of the chocolate bar, Kate is sitting and painting her nails. I think she is painting them with nail polish. Across from her Loraly is sitting and looking at her phone. She is especially sad because no one is sending her pictures of themselves. Pavaratti is sitting at the table too. He is smiling. Here is my picture for today. It is a picture of my chocolate bar. It s a 86% cacao.

  Like most of my pictures I took this one with my samsung flip phone. The blurry aspect of the photo is not because the chocolate is moving. It is not moving at all. My hand was shaking while I was taking the picture because I was so excited about the chocolate. It is for this reason that I will probably never become a professional photographer of chocolate.

This morning I awoke at an unseemly hour and after having some bran flakes and soy milk for breakfast I went to a run in East sac with my roommates Kate and Sara. We rode our bikes there. I felt a bit isolated on the trip there because I did not have a bell on my bike. While Sara and Kate were communicating with one another via bicycle bell dings, I was left in seclusion. When we got to the race, it had already started. Sara ran off in the general direction and caught up with the other people racing, while Kate and I headed out on a leisurely walk in what we thought was the right direction, but then turned around and went to a playground. It was AMAZING! There were swings, slides and poles to climb on. It was the best part of my day. It was pretty fun, but not as exciting as my thrilling horse ride of last night.

My blog post wouldn't be complete without a picture. Here is a picture of a pepper shaker that is on my table. Sometimes I use it to put pepper on my food.

I have been doing extensive research on blogs, and what people write about in them. Most people seem to like to write about their children and post cute pictures of them in their blog. Since I do not have any children, I will write about my bike instead. I have a bike. It is a blue 5 speed Peugeot from the 70's. Here is a picture of it. 

I took this picture with the camera on my vintage Samsung flip phone. It was taken in the dining room of my apartment while my bike was leaning against the wall. While I was not researching blogs, I spent my day teaching children to play piano, riding my sweet bike around town, chugging water, and playing some scales on my horn. A productive day by all accounts.

I have been very busy all day thinking about what I should write about in my blog today. In fact it has taken up most of my day. Because I spent so much time thinking about what to write about I didn't actually do anything worth writing about. I also spent some time practicing my horn and eating. Not at the same time.  I have been told by blogging experts that the key to a  good blog is lots of pictures. People like that kind of stuff. That is why I am including a picture of this glass of water. 

I drank out of it earlier. It still has some water in it. I might drink out of it some more later on. But I can't say for sure. I might get another glass and drink out of that. I am a big fan of water. It's one of my favorite beverages.  I was going to include a picture of my hand, but it turned out looking a little creepy. It was really skinny and weird looking and a little blurry. So I included this picture of a glass of water instead. I think it is one of my better pictures. Its not blurry, and you can actually tell what it is a picture of.  After I finish writing my blog I have some big plans for my day. I am going to practice some scales, lip trills and maybe even some Mozart. I will probably also read and then drink some more water. I am still undecided if I want to drink out of the same glass I have mentioned earlier. It will most likely depend on where I am when my thirst overwhelms me. If I am in my bedroom I will probably get a new glass because the kitchen is too far away. I need to go practice now.

This is the first blog post that I have so far. I'm going to try and make it really interesting and maybe put some pictures on it. First the interesting things. I ate some ice cream just now. It was tasty. Now for the picture. Here is the picture.

You might have thought that I was going to post a picture of some ice cream since I that is all I wrote about. However, I already ate the ice cream, so I can't take a picture of it since it is gone. Instead I just took a picture of some papers on the desk. They are very close to where the ice cream once was, so if you are a person who is good at imagining things and you have a lot of free time, you could imagine the bowl of ice cream sitting on top of the random pile of papers on the desk. Perhaps you are too busy admiring my skills with the camera to do any imagining of ice cream. That is ok too, and perfectly understandable. I have to go eat some more ice cream so I will have something to write about tomorrow.
