Tinkerbell!!! :) (And friends)

Okay, good night. Haha.

I have been drowning in so much work lately it's not even funny.

Not. For some weird and awesome reason I believe I'm hot wired for workaholism. You know how I pretend I'm stressed, tired and burnt out when in all honesty I thrive in being surrounded with deadlines and demands? You see all of it is love. It's not just work but the totality of it-- the pressure, expectations and effort I need to undergo just to cross out one itsy bitsy item on my to-do list. It's all very fulfilling and it's all very very fun. That is probably why I cannot be stuck in an island left to enjoy a getaway. I can't sit still. Call me an attention-deficient human being but I just always want to go out there and do something.

Whenever I walk by the Sunken Garden I envy the people who go out to fly kites. I envy that they have free time. In my book, free and time are words that don't usually go together. No matter how commonplace the words sound when paired, in my life they are like similar poles on a magnet always, always repelling each other.

I should be forced by someone or anyone to just stop and breathe. Invite me to eat ice cream!

Before I sleep I usually think of many things. The thinks I wish for, those I've failed at, people who matter to me, my plans for tomorrow. But lately, I've learned to just think about how soft my pillow and bed are. Aaaah, that moment before REM is the best part of the day, without question.

Enough of this nonsense, now back to the realm of deadlines.

Staring In Space

Some things that may or may not mean anything that have crossed my mind fairly recently. I just felt it was worth to share since I kind of been bothered about many things "life"-related. Quarter life crisis it is! It's possible that you can relate.

1. The thrill of the chase is almost always the better part. When you want something, the thought of you not having it (yet) is more exciting than the moment you actually grasp it with both hands.

2. And so in reference to #1, we unintentionally tend to prolong the thrill since it's intrinsically reinforcing.

3. People come and go into our lives. Some stay indefinitely, some just disappear. It takes effort to maintain all our relationships.

4. It's really tiring to talk, except when you think that you can say anything to the person you're talking to and not get judged. It's not a chore to talk if people reciprocate the interest you give in what you're saying.

5. Everybody has a soft spot but most people try to sport a hard, rigid facade. People keep themselves guarded to protect what's really important to them from being attacked.

6. When you're young and capable, you think you are invincible. You think you'll never get sick and get a heart attack, and so you sleep late and eat a lot of fried food.

7. Time heals everything.

8. Calculate all the risks so that you won't be surprised if life doesn't go the way it's planned.

Got This Somewhere

1 - If you didn't know when your birth date was, how old would you think you were?

I'd say I am a little in between 21 and 23. It's kind of a little older than my real age but I tend to take a lot of things in my life seriously. I think I plan my life out so much there's no room for spontaneity. Haha! I want to do so much, thinking I have so little time.

2 - Do you think ants go to heaven?

If they had souls, they would not go to heaven because they stole food the duration of their lifetime.

3 - If you could magically sprout a fully-functioning eye on any part of your body, where would you place it?

I'd place it in my foot. I saw things from the top for 21 years now, I'd love to see the world from below.

4 - What would you name yourself if you were born in the opposite sex?

It would be Seth. I always liked the way the name sounded! Just so nice.
