Daily Routine (9/13/17) - A Description
I’ll start this first DR by saying how I’m going to format these. Each post will be accompanied by a photo I have taken from something I did that day. It does not necessarily mean that the photo is related to the DR. I just want a photo in it to make it look *nicer*. I’ll try my best to keep these brief - as in no more than a 1000 words each.
Today has been quite a whirlwind of events. I decided to embark on a new journey and have this blog be evidence of it. Why? I guess I finally decided I need to start expressing myself more - in ways that I’m not necessarily comfortable with or used to. So now I’ve decided to make Daily Routines and in general, be more active on this blog. This is marked by the change of name, description, and pictures for my profile.
First I’ll start with the name; Why “Ode To Overstreet”? Well it comes from one of my favorite songs of the same name by one of my favorite bands of all time: Console Warriors. So the name is near and dear to my heart - but I’ve given it my own meaning as well. I want to think of it as a description of this blog. “Ode to Overstreet” meaning in a sense: the song of my life. A far reaching metaphor, but I feel it works.
“Ode” meaning song and then “to Overstreet“ meaning describing a street where it may be difficult getting past (or in this case, going over).
The description on my profile is self explanatory. The new profile picture I found on Reddit on r/animalcollective. I just found it cool, especially since it was inspired by another one of my favorite bands of all time. I wish I could credit the original author. The cover photo is just a picture of myself that I’ve really liked. You can search my old posts to find it.
Well, there you have it - a full description of my blog. I guess to wrap up this first DR, I’ll comment on the picture I chose. This was a delicious cup of coffee I had while writing all of this. To me, it symbolizes the work I did to transform this blog and the effort I’m putting into it. A cup of coffee makes the creative juices flow.

However, while being able to think about two things at the same time is a terribly convenient, the training it takes to get there is frustrating at best, and at other times rather disturbing. I remember one time I looked for the stone for almost an hour before I consented to ask the other half of me where I’d hidden it, only to find I hadn’t hidden the stone at all. I had merely been waiting to see how long I would look before giving up. Have you ever been annoyed and amused with yourself at the same time? It’s an interesting feeling, to say the very least.

Nothing like a run to the James to start the semester off right. Happy to be back in my favorite city (at Richmond, Virginia)
