LOL. First off, those stairs are awesome! ^^ I would definitely use the stairs instead of the escalator. It looked like it would be so much fun! But, after a few years, people would have enough of the stairs and the sounds of the keys. It would get old to the ones that use the path over and over.

I think habits can be changed. No. I know habits can be changed! There's many different factors that change habits; fear, experience, family members experience, love, inspiration, and media.

For example. My boyfriend changed his drinking habits out of fear and experience. He has two DUI's and the third will put him into jail for years. He fears going to jail, which caused him to change his habits. Experience as well. The second DUI put him in the hospital because he crashed his car into a boulder. He rather not do that again. I'm so proud of him for changing his bad habit, which as well from what he told me, me being proud of him changed his habit because he knows I'm all he needs in life. ^^

As for me. I've changed a habit out of inspiration of media. For several years now, I'll I wanted to do was sit, eat, and watch T.V. I've gained 60 pounds and was still gaining the weight. I wasn't healthy. I didn't take vitamins nor exercise. My doctor told me I was gaining too much weight over such a small amount of time and told me I had to change my habits or I'll have health problems in my future. I didn't listen. I just kept my habit of sitting, eating, and watching T.V. But then, on T.V. I started to watch The Biggest Loser. They inspired me to change. They were healthier and happier while eating healthy food and exercising. They did it for themselves and for their family. The inspiration of media inspired me. I've been eating healthier and exercising now for a month, and proud to say that I've lost 13 pounds. I want to lose more, but it takes time. I will keep doing this until I hit a healthy weight and know I wont have health problems in my future.
