Everyday Life by Alex Reese

When I saw this task become available I immediately started thinking of times I could do it without completely destroying my life. And yes, my life is completely dependent on school. And yes, I know it's sad. I knew that doing it on a weekend wouldn't be a very creative way to finish the task so I had quite a problem on my hands. The answer to all of my problems came to me in the form of three consecutive snow days. In this time I was exempt from school and was able to spend the day doing whatever I chose. The rest of the praxis will be used to describe what I accomplished on this day of liberty.
Clearly days without school become dedicated to tasking so I started my day working on the observation task. To hear more about that particular part of my day reference my Observation praxis.
I then proceeded to teach myself how to play several awesome songs on guitar. Among these were Me Gustas Tu by Manu Chao and Ulysses by Franz Ferdinand (both of which are awesome songs that I would recommend to just about anyone by the way). I then digitally recorded my songs using my fancy recording gear. My original plan was to upload my songs but SF0 doesn’t seem to like my file format and seeing as how I’m about as tech-savvy as your average drunk monkey I decided to skip that part in my praxis.
I spent the rest of my day playing in the snow however a recent illness as well as a lack of clean pants slowed down this process immensely. Overall I would say that it was a successful snow day. I did as much as I could to avoid academia outside of school for three days.

Someone give this man the technical assistance necessary to upload the files. They would make the praxis for me, as how people learn to play musical instruments is something I'm often curious about.
