I’m such a music fan, anyone could tell you that, but I cannot live without it. Mostly its about the beat, or the tone, and it will suit a mood I’m in. Sometimes the mood where you want to listen to Coldplay or Florence & the Machine yet you know it’s a bad idea because you know it will only really exacerbate the mood you’re already in! Or sometimes when you listen to the same song over and over again for no rational reason, its just something you do. I have felt that way for as long time but lately I have had the air piano happening.

Sometimes being an IT nerd I will find myself tapping on my leg as if I’m typing on a keyboard, but for the most part, I hear piano music and itch to learn them as if I was playing it myself. Certain songs just give me the craving to PLAY it. Think Coldplay’s the Scientist. Think Alicia Keys’ Fallin’. Lately little known Katie Webster and Black Satin. Her jazzy piano playing is SO conducive to air piano playing, its not even funny!

So, this is why I’ve taken up piano again, and am taking lessons. This could be hysterically bad, or a new skill to take up! Who’s coming to my recital? ;)

I’m trying to get my butt into gear. Trying to figure out how to give myself the get-up-and-go to exercise. Its becoming brutally cold and the wind chill is climbing but I much prefer that to trying to exercise in the heat. The Melbourne heat which has climbed to 40+ (celcius) during some summers. But how? How does one fit it in a busy working life, when I still want to make sure I’m catching up with Glee, and Dr Who (and now Pretty Little Liars)?

This is where I turn to a bit of celebrity for inspiration. This is where I irrationally aspire to get a fit, babe-licious body that may just be marginally attainable. Curves are awesome but you need to be TONED to pull it off Kim Kardashian style. So here is my ‘vision board’ as Oprah would call it. A visual post for me to get my gluteus maximus into gear. Apart from Miss Scarlett here really, none of these celebs are particularly glammed up to exercise. They are exercising for the real reason to stay fit, healthy, and buff.

Who are your fit body inspirations?
