My little suggestion

Post by Anactoria » Sat Jan 28, 2006 4:05 pm

I just figured I'd post this up here, 'cause it's been working so well for me. I'm sure there's some list somewhere that I can add it to (or maybe it's already on a list) but I'm too lazy to find it. xD

When I'm feeling really depressed, I love taking a hot shower. In addition to the hot shower, I love having my shower radio in the shower with me. I just crank up the volume and sing like crazy. Normally, I don't sing at all, because my voice is so awful and out of tune. But it's just fun to sing while taking a hot shower and not think or worry about anything else.

Hope this can help someone else like it has helped me. ^_^

that's a good suggestion. A lot of people suggest taking a shower or listening/singing to loud music, and you've combined them!

Yeah, it makes me feel like I'm just washing away all my problems. My shower is my sanctuary. ^_^

I tried taking a bath instead once, but it felt a bit too relaxing for me. As if that's even possible.. heh. ^^

But yes. I would highly recommend the shower radio. You can get them for really cheap at places like Walmart, I think.

i have one with a cd player :D

it helps to jam out in the shower.
there is, in the end, the letting go.

Awesome... I was eyeing those the other day at the store, thinking that I might need an upgrade. My shower radio has been getting bad reception lately. x.x
