One of Those Days

Everyone has days when nothing goes their way, and when these days come around certain tactics are used in order to get through the day. Personally I need a physical release to improve my mindset. Sitting around watching something or listening to music doesn't do it, I need to be exerting energy as if it's a bad omen.  Most of the time I'll go outside and shoot some hoops until I'm either bored or feeling better. I almost always listen to music when I shoot hoops, mainly because it provides some background noise but it also helps calm my mind if my day has been terrible. I definitely think music can act as a release from reality and help someone cope with a bad day or experience. I sometimes use it this way but I find it hard not to do something else while listening to music.  If I want to feel better I'll listen to rap or uplifting music, if I want to feel even worse I'll put on some Drake and think about my past relationships.
