My head's filling up. It usually comes around this time of the year, when I don't have school related stuff to do. The noooisse. The noise in my head. I'll be resurrecting this blog real soon. Meanwhile check the only blog entry I have on multiply (The other blog's my sister's) or read the entry I wrote last year around this time in our Intact blog. It is very similar to the previous entry but very different at the same time. READ!

Using your time, blogs and some other things
"Use your time wisely."I'm sure we all have heard of this line and its variations (other than the old saying "Time is Gold") sometime in our lives--in school, at home and from other places or sources--I know I have...
So it's surprising to hear about people getting bored at times like these, you know, the sem break. Sure it is very tempting to sit back, lounge and rant about how boring it is when you have all the time in the world, that is until the second semester starts.
Years ago, I was so lazy that I could lay on the bed and watch TV or read a book the whole day stopping only for calls of nature or meals. Ok, maybe not the whole day but you get the idea, I was laaaaazzzzyyyy. This is why I am physically challenged aside from having scoliosis hahahaha. Also because of this I have an abnormally fatty mid-section compared to my thin body. (I know, eeeww) Let's talk about my physical imperfections some other day.
Anyway, I get lazy, lay about and flip through the channels on TV, then I suddenly hear my mother's voice telling me what a lazy kid I am and talking about how I never get anything done for the day. This usually gets me to big arguments with my mother dear. We yell, cry and don't talk for months...YUP. This usually happens on weekends or on days I don't have homework and other school stuff to worry about. I was unusually hard-working in school and super kaduper lazy at home.
After some years--nowadays that is, everytime I bum around I can hear my mother's voice even if she's not there, I get up and think of things to do. I don't want to fight with her anymore even though the voice that tells me that I never get anything done now just exists in my head.
I eventually developed the habit of finding something to do partly because I don't want another you-never-get-anything-done spiels from my mom. I tell you, these kinds of speeches were long, so long that I got to do something already but my mother still tells me that I'm not doing anything despite of the fact that I already am doing something or I already did something. That usually irritated me and I can't control myself and I end up talking back at her. You know how talking back get parents SUPER angry...So there, I eventually changed, yeah, I love my mom. I don't want to fight with her anymore. Believe it or not I was sort of a rebellious kid back then, I did not look like it but ask my parents (and some close friends) and they'll tell you how I was like. That was then, ok? But I'm still relatively lazy.
I developed the habit of finding something to do mostly now because I get more things from doing stuff compared to just bumming around. New skills, new knowledge and that sense of
accomplishment. Yeah. Bumming around becomes more satisfying after doing stuff, you know, like super tiring activities, exercising, doing chores, etc., right?
Now that we are on a break, free from all that academic responsibilities, why don't we think of stuff to do? When you get bored (which occurs often at times like these when we are presented with relative freedom like the sem break) think of the things you wanted to do when there were still classes and think of the things you would not have the chance of doing when classes start again. When you're done thinking about those things (which was not that hard for me), do it, now that you can still take your time. November 12's not too far from today...*evil laugh*
Are you using your time wisely?

The Thinking Blog
This is where I learned about the Turkish ice cream that never melts, the opposite of 'deja vu' that is 'jamais vu', that it takes one crazy person to change the world and some other interesting studies that might help us since we're majoring in Psychology.
The Chicken Mafia
This blog's author is (I guess) Filipino. I think he's one of the hard-core Filipino bloggers like Lauren Dado, the first Filipino blogger ever (She's Atenean!). I've been able to tumble upon his blog just now because of a high school friend. Joyfulchicken's (That's what he call himself) humor is kind of sarcastic and most of the time offensive, but I still learn new things from him. I do not agree with some of his opinions though, like that of vegetarianism or of religion. I don't even know why I keep on reading his blog! Well, you might like it. Click!
