Procrastination is my Best Friend

Hello!

I love being lazy, it's true. I will wake up at 11:00 am to eat and be back in bed by 1:00 pm ready for a nap. I could sit in bed and watch Netflix and youtube all day long.

Essentially this. My recommendations on Netflix are Scrubs, Doctor Who, and Criminal Minds. If possible find someone to watch Scrubs with, it makes it a million times better. 

Anyhow, this isn't necessarily a problem for me right now. I have a lot more free time than I am use to and have kept up with things I need to do surprisingly well. I am proud of myself. If I felt like it, I could finish seasons of TV shows weekly/daily and not worry about what I should be doing. It's no longer satisfying though. I started watching Doctor Who at a rather difficult point in a semester in school but managed to procrastinate and study and pass. Now I have all the time in the world to watch Netflix and I am so bored of it. I feel like I haven't done anything useful. My roommate has had to write a bio about herself and it's made me self reflect about myself.

 I am boring. Completely and utterly boring. My fiance keeps saying I should work out, honestly curious if I'm fat now, because I say I want to be productive. I'm still too lazy to do that! Seriously! I also have no money to spend on fun things so it makes it more difficult. I think I am going to restart trying to learn Korean. I tried a while back but quit do to lack of time. My next goal is to find something that doesn't require internet to do.
 
Comment what you like to do for fun that isn't binge watching!

Love Yo Self

Take 5 seconds to list the bad things about yourself.

Done? Now take 5 more to list the good things.

I bet the second was harder. It's so hard to think good about yourself. Why that is, who knows. Personally I sometimes (most times) don't feel deserving of compliments. Sometimes I think I am being conceited to even compliment myself, even though only I know about it. The brain is funny that way.


I was talking with my roommate earlier about this. I think it is a good thing to always have something you like about yourself. No matter how small. I can look at my face in the mirror and just think about what I hate, but I always fall back on liking my nose. Weird? Maybe, but that's a little comfort for me, a victory. I can think "My chin does not fit my face, but I have a cute nose.

I recommend taking time right now to make a list of things you like about yourself. Hold onto them and next time you're feeling down think of them. Remember the good and be proud, even if it is just your nose.

Gift Giving

I love giving gifts.

I hate spending money.

I also love shopping.

 These things are an actual problem sometimes. I go shopping a LOT. My fiance defines shopping for me as "wandering around a mall looking at everything but never buying anything". He isn't wrong. Luckily for me he puts up with it. I don't have a lot of money and I also can't justify spending more than 20$ on most things. I also find Goodwill overpriced at times, I don't think 4$ for a used-to-be-white t-shirt celebrating the local high school going to state is worth it. But to each their own. 

I constantly find myself picking up things while shopping thinking who it'd be PERFECT for. If I was made of money my sister would have half of Ulta and my grandma would own every candle in the world. I sadly cannot do that. I like to think that one day when I do have money I'll give people the most well thought out gifts that they truly love. As for now I'll spend my time filling my online shopping cart on numerous sites to my hearts content. 

I do want to share a couple things I have found that I think would make great gifts for others or yourself.

 This is just a Hodge-podge list of things I have created. I tried to incorporate different types of people into the list and cover something for everyone in this very short list.
 
Anyhow, have a wonderful day and I hope you enjoyed this blog.

Quizzes: Defining Me

Hello again!

I'm not trying to make this a daily thing, more so when it tickles my pickle. Happens to be doing that daily as of now. I spent 2 hours with my roommate taking those terrible internet quizzes. In case you are wondering, I should marry Paul Rudd, I am a modern bride, I would be AmazingPhil or Danisnotonfire, and my sense of humor is sexy.



The Ed Sheeran gif is brought to you by what I am currently listening to, Ed Sheeran -One Night. I love 99% of his music that I hear. His voice is so soothing and genuine.



What I realized though, taking my quizzes, was that I was hoping for answers to who I truly was from a quiz made up by someone else bored at 2 am on the internet. It doesn't define me. I can't be classified as one type of person or tv character or style. I am exactly who I am in this moment. I won't be that person in the next moment and I won't be the same in 5 minutes. I'll be older, bored with the song I am currently listening to or something else I'm not feeling now.



That's alright for me. I'll leave you with another inspirational quote I've found.

Reading: Falling in Love Again

Hello again!

Recently I have purchased a book and started reading again. I never intended to stop, but as a university student these things happen and sometimes reading an anatomy and physiology textbook makes any reading seem like a chore. I remember as a child growing up and my dad would ground me from reading! Even after losing all my electronics I would still read to the point he had to take that away as well. Nothing is more depressing than seeing a half finished book sitting on your counter unable to be finished until you clean your room. Being 12 was hard. 


However, my favorite genre hasn't really changed since the age of 13. I love young adult novels with a love story. Something about a quirky girl who doesn't fit in find love in a boy she probably met in the second chapter in an awkward run in is my weakness. 

If that appeals to you read any of these. All the same, yet different.

By the way, I have read them all

My most recent read, which I have yet to finish, is a cute book called Girl Online by Zoe Sugg better known as Zoella. You know, adorable British youtuber who makes you sigh at your screen wanting to look as cute as she does everyday. Not to mention how grounded and genuinely kind she is despite 7 million people watching her. I can't decide if I'm jealous or full of admiration. Perhaps both.


http://www.zoella.co.uk/2014/09/girl-online-instagram-competition.html
Anyways..
The book is told from the point of view of a 15 year old awkward photographer named Penny. She recently created a blog to express herself and it is gaining popularity and she continues life as her awkward self. There is a bit of romance but I am not finished so that is all I can say. It has already become like a friend to me. I mean it's something I can find comfort in and relate to despite being 6 years older than the main character. 

When I read the bit of romance I can feel the emotions myself. That is why I love books with romance. They give me the chance to fall in love over and over again. Reading about a first kiss and realizing it gets my heart racing as well. I love it. 

(No kissing has happened in the book...yet. Just an example.)

Anyhow, if anyone out there has forgotten what it's like to read I hope to remind you. If you don't read, I want to inspire you. Any genre, this is simply my preference. If anything, I'd at least try a manga or comic book. Still a plot/story.

That's all for today, in honor of my current read, I'll end todays blog like Penny.

Step 1, Inspiration

Hello there!

I decided to start this blog as a way to let my inner thoughts out. It will be a place to share my thoughts, opinions, and anything else I find interesting overtime. 


Whether that means a review on something or simply the idea that has been plaguing my mind all day who knows. What I do know is, it is difficult for a person to keep all their emotions bottled up inside to the point they may pop. It is simply unhealthy. 

I'm going to try to post weekly words to live by. These will be my first.


Have a wonderful day. 

Toodles Poodles.
