Category: Self Improvement


The two people who follow this blog the most are probably going to be pretty upset or really blaze (with an accentuated “e”) with me about this.

Once again, I’ve decided to stop blogging.  I don’t really come on here that much to post, and I really prefer reading my friends’ blog posts rather than posting my own. Besides, hanging onto a thread with this blog is really killing my time. Other than that, I’ve noticed that this blog has been very depressing despite what I usually write and feel. That’s negativity that I just don’t need to experience; my usual life style seems to have slipped a bit from the happy-go-lucky type. (My friends are probably remembering high school and scratching their heads a bit right now, but you know it’s true to some extent! ;)  For these reasons, I feel that this blog has been tortured and exhausted to its fullest, and so have decided to close it, like many before.

I’ll probably start blogging again later on, but it’ll be less personal. I really don’t think anyone is interested in my life.

You know it’s true.

It’s funny to think that I actually started blogging purely by inspiration from another blogger, who is now just trying to relax and complete a degree at USYD. I wish her luck for the rest of her life, and hope she’s doing better at uni than I am.

So..

So

 

Not this again.

I have a confession. I am addicted to tea.

Well, to some of you, this will be old news, but something that’s happened since the last time I blogged solely about tea is that I started going to uni. On my way to uni, there is a bubble tea store called EasyWay, where I would stop almost every day just to order large sugary teas.

I knew it then and I still know it now.

It’s a waste of money.

Lately I’ve been thinking of a solution to this problem, and have finally come up with something plausible. Every time I pass an EasyWay, I will bar myself from buying it, and when I get home I will get a pack of some other tea at Woolworths for less than $5. I will do this for a week, probably accumulating a few hundred teabags in the process, and then stop. From there, I will bar myself from all EasyWay purchases period. Thus, I will not only have saved money, but I’ll have also satiated my tea addiction when I get home. Further, I will be much healthier, since I drink tea without any additives at home anyway, and my family will also benefit from a larger variety of tea to choose from.

It’s foolproof, I hope.

Progress report when the week is over.

Paperweights

So within a week or two of getting Pokemon White, I actually beat it. It was really good, perhaps the best child-saves-world plot they ever came up with, but this game is just a $48 paperweight to me now. Heck, it can’t even keep paper down. All it can do is keep dust from collecting on the pins in my DS.

Games are such a waste of time and money. I try and delude myself by getting them when they’re least popular but time and time again I come to the same conclusion.

Why am I telling you this?

Well, maybe you could be saved from wasting your time and money.

Money is something you can always get back, but time takes a lot more to make up.

Actually, you can’t ever get time back, because wasting time is when you realise you’re too old to turn back the clock and do things differently, more efficiently.

Oh the way life works.

Self Realisation

My not so self realisation for today is my apparent phobia of outgoing people. When I’m around them, I feel like they take over my presence or something, maybe even get into my personal space.

I’m going to combat this by meeting as many outgoing new (but preferably outgoing) people as I possibly can, and maybe even become outgoing in the process.

I feel charisma is an art form, and if I don’t master it, I may not get as far in life.

Optimum Efficiency

Here’s something I wished about myself.

EFFICIENCY.

I want to go back to the days when I would trawl shops for the cheapest price. Nowadays, it seems like I just can’t be bothered. I want to be a hardcore study addict and kick everyone’s butt in the exams. Nowadays, it seems like I’m settled for mediocrity. I want to go back to the days when I could sit down and be content playing Pokemon on my crappy little game boy. Nowadays, I spam Platinum on my pink Nintendo DS because I feel like I have to.

I wish the actions I make had meaning. Nowadays, I don’t even think.

I wish I was efficient. Nowadays, I’m not.

I’ll change this. I don’t know how yet, but I will. If I don’t, I’ll keep drowning in my own misconceptions.

I want liberation.
