A Trip to the Mountains

In November of 2021, I got to go on a trip to the mountains in Breckenridge, in the US state of Colorado. The town is high up in the Rocky Mountains, so the scenery was so beautiful!

View from our hotel

No matter where you went, you could see gorgeous mountain views wherever you looked!

Views everywhere

More mountains

Even though it was already winter there, you could still see green forests, thanks to the evergreen trees. Colorado has tons of evergreen trees!

Gorgeous Colorado

Goldberg Variations


The Goldberg Variations (BWV 988) were written
by Bach with the intention of being played on a
harpsichord or another type of clavier. However in
the 20th century many versions played on piano
have surfaced, the performance by Glenn Gould
being quite notable. The variations were written
to be performed by one Johann Goldberg, a
musician in the court of a count named Kaiserlin.
It is said that the count suffered from insomnia
and he could only be lulled to sleep by hearing
Goldberg play the variations. This could, however,
be an urban legend.

Unlikely Hero


I went to the shopping mall after new year. I enjoyed seeing all of the rabbit things, it's so cute! I wandered into a toystore and I was curious what was popular. I found these robots and I couldn't stop laughing! They are grouped by color? Why is one a food? Why is one a lobster? Are these toys from a TV show? I may go back to the store and buy one. I'm so curious!
