It was February 14, I woke up about 8 o’clock to the sound of my alarm playing “feel good drag” by Anberlin. As I got up I went to the window and saw that there was fresh snow on the road, and thought I’d go skiing regardless there was good or bad snow on the mountain. I grabbed by boots and skis on the way out the door and put them in the back of my truck, it’s a Chevy Silverado. On my way up to the mountain I started off listening to the radio. I never really realized how many commercials were on there and how annoying they can be after only about the first ten seconds.
I started to listen to some of my CD’s, the one I chose was country, mainly Cross Canadian Ragweed. Personally I think they’re one of the best country bands out there today. The songs I have on there are Alabama, Dimebag, dead man, 17, don’t need you, smoke another, sick and tired, boys from Oklahoma and some more from other artists. For me it’s comfort music. When I got tired of some of that music I switch CD’s and listened to some of my rock, I have the usual, three days grace, some Anberlin, and others. I got up to the mountain after about 30 minutes of driving; I grabbed my skis out of the back, put on my boots and headed to the slopes. There are a lot of signs up there that have their own logo and slogans on them. Seems like they don’t want anyone forgetting who they are. I get there around 10 and skied until about 2.
Then I had to head back home and get dressed for work at Big 5, I don’t really like it but it’s a job and helps pay the rent. On the way back the roads were better and I made it back in a little better time. When I get home I got dressed for work. I ended up getting ready ahead of what I thought I would and had about fifteen minutes to listen to music, I love music, there’s not much that I don’t like. I headed out and again I started off listening to the radio and finally got to work. When I got to work I was immediately bombarded with media, everything from signs to the crappy music they play there. Not much media intake went on at work other than the crappy music and signs posted up everywhere. When my time was up it was about 10 o’clock. I didn’t bother getting anything to eat on the way home/ apartment because I had to get up early the next morning to do the same thing without getting to go skiing first. I got home got onto facebook did some stuff on there and when I was done there got a bite to eat took a shower and went to bed with the Ipod on.
