penguins

 I embarked on some English revision today ( •̀ ω •́ )✧

It comprised multiple essays and a full reading comprehension package. Recently, I've started enjoying doing reading comprehensions. My assumption is that my reading habit has made reading seem more pleasurable to me, and interacting with text? Sign me up! 

Anyways, the factual comprehension I comprehended was on penguins! Here's the summary of the text:

When penguins are on land, they are often seen to have low shoulders and long bodies on short legs. Their profile resembles a boomerang with a natural rounded stance. When erect, penguins are graceful with their tail ends touching the ground. They tuck their legs into their bodies to ward off coldness, resulting in a shuffling stride. In water, penguins surface for air and propel out when moving. As skilled divers, they hold their breaths at length to outswim their prey. No other animal surpasses the penguin in water.

I remember playing a game called Happy Feet that included dancing penguins. It was an old rhythm game, and I was really bad at it. But the penguins were so cute, especially the babies! The story of the game was along the lines of a baby penguin wandering around the Arctic Pole. The game was quite fun, but when it got to difficult I was forced to stop. 

Nowadays rhythm games are gaining loads of players where I live. And with their rise comes the reemergence of vocaloid artists like Hatsune Miku. Personally, I'm not a fan of any vocaloid songs because 1. they're all not in English and 2. the voices aren't that nice to listen to. The only song I know of that is even remotely similar to the vocaloid mixes circulating on the market is Bad Apple, which is actually pretty good. 

Yeah, I prefer the English version. Bite me!
