*This was meant to be published last Friday but I didn't have time to write*
Today was the soggy kind of weather, when all the snowy slush has melted and Spring showers are comming. I planed to ride my bike since the begining of the Febuary break, and thought that it'll be a good idea since I had nothing that needed to be done, or anything special to do. I grabbed my Iphone, and the remote controll for the garage door. The grassy carped was soft and squishy under my beat up old uggs. The best part about my country side house(it's more a resort than a farm) is that people like you for who you are, and you don't have to fuss about how you look like. The white garage door opened, revealing other bikes, sooters, and in the middle, my car which I never get tall enough to drive. I pull my orangey-red KTM which I call Kim out of the tangle of pedals and wheels and roll her on the rocky way. I pluged my white earbuds in, playing the fastest tune I could find. It was a bit of a struggle to get on the bike seat, for it was a little too high, but eventually, I was speeding around the black tar road around my garden. A few raindrops started to fall; they didn't stop me. Without switching speed gears, I pedaled faster and faster, making every puddle scatter beneath my two wheeled Kim. I became so fast my songs seemed to be played on slow motion! 2km done(1st full lap) 14km to go. I was huffing and puffing, the wind going against me, trying to pull me back. My hands were frozen on the bike's two handles and my legs were aching, but I didn't care. I needed my daily portion of speed. I smiled, couldnt help it, harmony swirled inside my head as I zoomed past everything; the lakes, the river, the spirts olace, the kitchen, all five little guest houses. When at last my legs took no more pressure, I carefully put Kim back on her rack, next to the little four wheeled bike. What I don't know is how come something so usual and normal become so magical and special?
