take me away

You know the feeling, everyone gets it once in awhile, you don't mean to, but sometimes you just need a break. A possible change of surroundings, a break in the everyday routine; somewhere unknown, somewhere secluded? somewhere new and exciting, full of endless possibilities just waiting to be seen... Man do i need a holiday ! :)

You know this feeling as well; too much homework, too many responsibilities, too many obligations yet not enough time. Everything to worry about/consider, not enough spontaneous bursts of fun and things planned just for fun's sake.
Gotta love the sober feeling of being a responsible, mature adult (nottttt!) Thankfully, I am not quite there yet, and don't think i will ever fully "sober up"...

Hence the fact that i haven't been able to stop reminiscing past childhood memories from SPRING in previous years, lately.
I even had a really strrrrrange dream recently, where toys from my past and accessories were totally and completely neglected; hidden in an old box, stashed away somewhere to be forgotten about.
And in this creepy dream, i found them again. I could hardly remember them until i opened the box and then everything just came back to me.
I also remember paying extreme attention to detail when i was looking at the random toys, it was like they were whispering to me and crying, because they didn't want me to forget about them... Hmmm...
Then all i remember after that was my mum calling me so i jumped out of bed, scared as hell, and went downstairs only to find out she never called me?

What could this mean? Am i leaving my childhood behind? Adjusting to the stressful, continuous drag of working constantly, balancing school and learning that time is precious and must not be wasted doing unnecessary things such as bludging?

Well you know what, I'm not going to grow up that fast
I still believe in doing things just for the sake of having fun, and quite frankly, i miss it, that's why i believe a holiday is in order. But, yes i am in no position right now to go on holiday, simply because of my family's circumstances. BUT, that doesn't mean i can't trick myself into thinking i am on one.
It's very simple, me and my mum have actually done it before.
All you need to do it believe it.

get out of the comefort zone!

Hey guys. Another week gone by, and i think i may be getting into a regular pattern, for writing these blogs. Fascinating.


I recently acknowledged a few things about myself that i hadn't noticed about myself in the past and i think it's always good to identify certain qualities in yourself; therefore, you know what to look for in others, and you know what they would expect to find in you... and it makes you feel great! :)
Well, i know i obtain absolutely NO skills whatsoever of multitasking. I tend to put all my effort into one thing, (that's usually a lot of effort) rather than scattering it by doing various tasks where my mind would be all over the place. Although sometimes this can be bad (putting so much effort into one thing) Eg. exams, because it makes you slower at it, and when put to the clock, you tend to run out of time. This is something I MUST WORK ON, before exams start.

Secondly, i realised that I AM REALLY NOT A FAN OF COMPUTERS...?!?! Well, the internet..
This is one of the only websites i ever go on. I really don't understand everyone's constant obsession with these machines. And the internet.... if I'm on it for over half an hour, i will usually get bored.
Give me a book, over an internet research task any day and i'll take it.
It's pretty hard to admit this dislike when most of the world's population including my sister, mum and dad and almost all of my friends, are hooked, leaving me a ratio of like 1:1000 000...
Maybe it's the infinite amount of convenience, placed upon it all, that has drastically grasped the minds of this generation, but then again, maybe they see it differently..
I think we should use it in moderation only.

Oh that brings me to another thought that has been thrust upon me in these past two weeks. This is how it goes;
Have you ever felt so comfortable when and where you are that you don't feel like moving? Don't lie, because we all have.
When you're comefortable, you don't feel like moving and if you don't move for too long, you become stagnent.
Translate that into litteral format and you become a non-achiever; this is what i like to call the comefort zone. And it's not a good zone to be in, trust me.
This applies with everything from money to relationships.

We humans are naturally born to achieve and succeed. But these days, it seems more and more people are slipping into this comefort zone due to the simple convienience of technology.

Maybe this is why I'm not a fan of the ever growing "everything at your fingertips" convienience of the internet and it's powers. So when you can view/find out everything from your computer screen, why get off your ass and find out the hard way?
It's because we need it. We need the challenge and we need the determination.
Just imagine those people who have nothing, those poor people affected by poverty and homelessness, and sometimes, when they truly put their minds to it, they end up succeeding and achieving their dreams. From nothing...
Now where's the convenience there?


Where as us, we have the choice. We are one of the luckiest countries in the world because we have that added luxuary and endless amounts of choices, we have the choice to be comefortable and stagnent or we have the choice to strive to be better, and achieve our dreams.


Which one would you pick ?
