what to do:
things you enjoy, even when no one around you wants to go out and play. what lowers your stress/blood pressure/anxiety level? make a list, post it to your journal... and then tag 5 friends and ask them to post it to theirs.
I really like spending time doing nothing, while lying in bed. I like dreaming my life away... I wish reality didn't exist.
Anywayz, here are the things that I do to lessen my insanity:
- I lie down in bed and try to fall asleep. ( I know a lot will find this weird, but I always "kuyakoy" myself to sleep)
- I listen to the radio, play my favorite cds until my eyes dropped.
- I listen to music using my discman... it's different when I just listen to the radio, and when I use my discman. I usually singalong in my thoughts and pretend I was the one really singing the songs. Sometimes I even imagine myself dancing (which I truly suck at) while singing upbeat songs. Pathetic ha? Well, it's free to dream right?
- I drink lots of water. It makes me feel refreshed and cleansed. Helps in making my sadness wash down all over my body.
- I call my good ol' highschool friends on the phone and try to have a long chat with them.
- I write in my diary... senseless thoughts and string of words which only I can read. I am a writing addict especially when my pen's ink is clear and bold.
- I eat chocolate... it's definitely, absolutey pleasurable to indulge into something especially when that something is hazardous for you. ( I have migraine... chocolate makes me feel intoxicated, but I still eat anyway. It's something I can't resist)
- I watch television until my head ached.
- I write poems. It's one thing I can't stop myself from doing. I may not be that good, but I just. I feel better keeping things that I feel to myself.
- I hug my pillows... nothing can comfort me better than my soft pillows. It's a perfect substitute for absent loved ones you want to hug (it couldn't hug you back though).
- I put on my lipstick, so at the end of the day, my lips would look as if it had been whipped.
- When it's night time, star gazing calms me a lot. Stars always leave me mystified.
- Pig out on whatever is available in the fridge (durian chips, sampaloc or just water, haha!)
- Go to a friend's house and spend the whole day there talking about anything under the sun.
- Read a good book. It's the perfect thing to do to kill time.
- Take a long bath. I really feel better after a long bath, it's as if my aches and sadness are being scrubbed away with my dead skin cells.
- Wash my feet... I don't know, I'm just like that.
- And when I feel really down, I just look at the short list Eloisa made for me to help me feel good about my life.
Five reasons for me to smile ( according to Eloisa):
- Many sick patients out there waiting for me to graduate.
- Mr. Right might be stuck at the terminal.
- Joven as a new star in charades.
- PYM acquaintance part on October 9 (of course this happened ages ago, but it's still fun to reminisce right?)
- Meteor rocks!!! (haha,this gets me everytime)
There you have it... it's not such a long list.
I'm tagging Sky, T.A., Gel-gel,Fred,and Ongx.
