Today, Piplup and I took a leisurely bike ride around the neighborhood. I wanted to get some fresh air and expose my skin to a little bit of UV light, which is supposed to be beneficial for pityriasis rosea. Plus, I’ve been feeling a bit out of shape lately, so the exercise was definitely welcome!
I finally got around to seeing Moana 2 this afternoon, and while it has some flaws, I did enjoy it overall. The pacing was a little off, which I suspect is a result of the project’s transition from a TV series to a movie. That said, it was a fun, funny, and visually stunning film.
Time to replace the battery! It’s been almost 3 years, which seems about average for my motorcycle.
Just saw Colorful Stage: The Movie: A Miku Who Can’t Sing tonight. Going in, I was a total newbie to the whole thing, so the beginning was a little confusing. But, I’d say around the halfway mark, I was completely hooked, dying to know how the story would play out.
The movie’s music is really good! I’m already planning to check out a few of the featured “bands”, of which there were five: a rock band, hip-hop group, goth-lolita group, pop idol group, and an amusement park variety troupe. The goth-lolita group “Nightcord at 25:00” was my favorite. Check them out on Spotify if interested!
Oh, and for those who don’t know (like I did!), the movie is based on a rhythm game called Hatsune Miku: Colorful Stage! That’s where all the backstory and lore come from. It’s actually super interesting when you start to dig into it!
Bonus: This song was featured in the movie for a few seconds. I liked it so much I had to look it up. So good!
HEB always has enticing flavors! I passed on this and bought some frozen yogurt, but I do want to try it.
