Alright since I finished my bath and put on the clothes, I went to my room to relax my body and mind, so I took a nap.
*2 hours later*
I stood up and got off my bed and headed to my computer to do some research. This was a parallel world, but I was still surprised to see that many of the songs that had been successful in my previous world didn't even exist in this one.
Also, artist Post Malone, Lil Peep, Ed Sheeran, Shawn Mendes, NF and so much more don't exist here. I know it's 2005 and they haven't really start their music career at this time. the earliest of the artist who started making music was NF at 2008 but I can't find them anywhere in the internet.
I searched for all their info's but it seems like they just don't exist. No social media presence, no mentions of them in their schools or even their families. They just aren't here. The music culture would take a hit without their music, I know for a fact a lot of their music helped me a lot in my past life.
Since I didn't listen to music while walking, I hadn't noticed this before, but now I was surprised to see Liam's playlist and realize that I didn't know any of these bands and artist.
I know a huge amount of music off the top of my head, with the lyrics perfectly memorized and I feel like the system also helped me remember these things.
Would this be a good idea to make money?' I began to think. Considering my current situation, it might be a bit difficult to get gigs in nearby bars or hangouts, but I could sing while playing guitar or piano and put it on YouTube to make some long-term money and spread my music.
Shit Justin Bieber is also in this world...
Following the path of music was the dream of many people, but most lacked individuality. I can also take the path of the Artist Marino and John Michael Howell; they have pretty good songs.
Luckily for me, I had so many ideas of bands and artist from my previous world that I could take ideas from several of them to have "originality" in this world, as well as a huge repertoire of lyrics that had already been successful that I could use to be successful in this world.
Is this a dick and fuck up move, yeah pretty much. Do I feel bad? Kinda not, don't get me wrong, at the bottom of my heart they are the true artist, but they are not alive in this world and no having their music here would be horrible.
If I don't feel like taking this way I can do the gaming and technology way, like making Minecraft or Instagram. Also, betting is a good way to get cash like betting on the world series and other sports.
I continue to browse the internet for a few hours, and I started to feel hungry. I check the time and it's almost 5pm.
I went downstairs to the kitchen and then it hit me. I just forgot that I can get skills if doing certain things in the right way so I went back upstairs to grab my phone. If I can get food buff from cooking, shouldn't I be able to recover quicker.
So I started to watch cooking videos and trying to figure out what to cook and this took me about 2 hours until a new message popped up.
[+1 INT]
Makes sense, the more knowledge I get the more INT will be increase.
So I decided to make pasta, not to hard and pretty good for me to eat so I started to experiment. I also started humming and singing to some that is out while I was cooking.

the message I'd been waiting for finally appeared.
[Singing Lv 24
Effect: +24% efficiency when practicing singing, +24% chance that whoever hears your voice while singing will like what they hear].
And we also got
[New Skills Acquired: Cooking lv 12
Effect: +10% efficiency when cooking, +10% chance that the food coming out more delicious and gives certain buffs].
I looked at the food I made and I was shocked, it fucking worked.
["Buff" Pasta]
[12% more delicious, 12% Stamina]
I started to eat my creation, and I started to feel good because of the buffs. I finished it so fast my brain didn't compute anything. I grabbed more and started eating more, then a notification came to view that made me drop my fork. I started to choke and cough violently so I grabbed water and started chugging.
What popped up was this.
[New Buffs Acquired: Homer Simpson Intake Lv 1
Effect: When eating food, this skill increases the user calories speed by +1% for 24 hours.]
"IS THIS SYSTEM FUCKING AROUND ME OR WHAT" I YELLED. WHAT DO YOU MEAN HOMER SIMPSON INTAKE. First of all, I aren't bald, second even if try to eat a lot I don't have the stomach like he does. Fuck I gave up.
"Well I'm full, time to clean up this mess." I muttered to myself. Now that is done let me rest for 30 mins or a hour before I go out for a walk.
*Hour passed by* Welp Time to get my lazy ass up. Hmmmm I feel like I'm missing something.
Suddenly, I realized something.
Although I had run to the point of exhaustion in the morning, my body wasn't sore at all now.
Could it be something to do with the system? Was it the food or the stat points.' I wondered. I suppose I could use it to train my muscles?
Since it was late at night and the neighborhood and I don't I think it's safe mostly because I didn't explore much, I didn't think it was a good idea to go for a walk at this time, so I guess I'm going to do some weight training in the backyard and walk around my house.
Looking for an effective workout on the Internet, I found a simple one, but one that would be very good for my future plans.
Putting on another pair of workout clothes, I went out into the big backyard next to my pool I started my workout.
First, I did 5 minutes of warm-up and stretching, which would be fine with my weight I hope.
Then I did 2 sets of pushups on the wall because I couldn't bear to do them on the floor with my skinny arms, squats with a chair, calf raises and finally a few seconds of plank. I ain't trying to break any bones here.
This may sound easy, but it was so tiring and exhausting that I was exhausted before I finished the first set. I was actually scared of breaking my bones, I don't have much muscle of fat in my body yet. I got to level up that Homer Buff.
When I finished the workout, I got another skill and another buff!
[Bodybuilder Skill Lv 1:
Effect: When you do strength training, your muscles develop 1% faster and 1% your body tires slower].
[Muscle Exercise Buff Lv 1: Performing muscle exercises increases the user's metabolism speed by 1% for 12 hours].
When I saw that the Muscle Exercise Buff I froze. I didn't want this mostly because I am already skinny enough. I want to see if I can turn of certain buff so I tested it out and it worked. Now when I look at the buff it shows this.
[Muscle exercise Buff lv 1 (Off): Performing muscle exercises increases the user's metabolism speed by 1% for 12 hours]
Well now I don't need to worry about losing weight. Going take a quick 10 mins break before I start walking around the house.
*10 mins later*
Welp time to start walking and listen to some music.
About 2 miles of walking around I got new buff and I stopped walking, let us see.
[New Buff Acquired: Low Impact Cardio Exercises Lv 1]
[ Low Impact Cardio Exercises Lv 1: Performing Low Impact Cardio Exercises increases the user's Metabolism speed by 1% for 12 hours.]
Seeing the new buff I gained, I immediately turned it off. Welp I guess I should head back inside and take a bath.
Sigh, a warm bath cleanses my soul, Finished bathing and look at the mirror. "Yup I'm looking pretty handsome" I said to myself confidently.
[+1 CHA]
Is it because I was confident and I wasn't confident before? Now that I think about it... It makes sense. Sigh.. Every action has a meaning.
Well time for bed.
