Haha, that’s the best title I could think of. The News:

  • I quit my job last tuesday 23rd.
  • Yesterday was my first day in search of a new job. Unfortunately, I hadn’t slept more than two hours the night before so I felt really  tired. I only filled one application. If they call me, I’m gonna work at a funeral home =S
  • I’ve been thinking of getting a new haircut. It has to have 3 carachteristics; it has to fit my type of hair, it has to be something different to what I’ve done to my hair before and to what people normally see, it has to be only a bit shorter than it is now. Maybe 2-3 inches shorter.
  • I’m gonna finish high school =D. I’ll be starting on late august or early september this year.  It’s going to be in an open high school system.
  • I really need to be more constant!
  • Once I get a new job, I’m gonna start attending therapy.
  • Will it be tuba, french horn or viola? Mhmm… =/.If they offered trombone lessons, I would take them, but they don’t – they? who? Click here -.
    Plus, a trombone is a damn lot bigger than me, so I think it would be really complicated for me to manipulate it.
  • We have a new link on our blogroll area. Check it out. It’s my ‘little sister’s’ blog. You’ll like her, she’s really smart and cool. =P

Maybe to write something interesting you have to be an interesting person. A lot of people would consider me as being interesting. I don’t think I am. Maybe that’s the problem.

Ok. Let’s start from that.

I’M AN INTERESTING PERSON. I’M A DAMN INTERESTING PERSON. I’M AN SMASHINGLY INTERESTING PERSON. OF COURSE I AM. I BELIEVE I AM AN INTERESTING PERSON.

Uhmm… Nope. Not working.

XD

But I feel the need to write. Doesn’t that mean that I have something interesting to say? It’s just that I haven’t found it. Or maybe I haven’t found the way to say it.

I’ve said this before, but I have to start trying harder to make this blog less personal. But… oh… whatever. I already started telling you this, so I’ll finish. Basically I came here to say that I’m damn tired. Tired of my job, tired of my generalized disaster, tired of being un-interesting, tired of my life… Et cetera.

And I hate being so tired that I find really hard to start really making an effort to change things around. But I’d really like to do it.

I should start a sort of challenge. Something like… “stop living at three places  ‘at the same time’”. I mean, this causes me to have a mayor disaster than if I lived just at one place, not in my mom’s house monday through friday and at my dad’s or my boyfriend’s on weekends. I thought of heading to 43things.com and adding it to my life list, but… I don’t know why, but I think I don’t take seriously enough whatever goal I have. I hate that. u.u

That’s right, my imaginary and non imaginary friends =P. I had this little problem and it suddenly solved by itself. Or maybe not by itself, actually it was my ‘past me’ who solved it, and I’m so happy I once was that ‘me’ and that I can be like I once was =P. I know, I know, you must be really confused by this post, but it’s ok, life and posts based on life don’t always have to be easy to understand 8-| =P. Anyway, this is just a little note to let you know about my life. I’m trying to make this thing a lil bit less personal, and I’m trying hard, but I guess I’ll have to start trying harder, because I haven’t gave myself enough time as to write posts that are an easy and really interesting read. Maybe I’m too self-centered, because personal posts are my ‘forte’ =P. Anyway, I’ll try to update soon, thank you for reading this =).*

I thought this would be an appropriate post for today.

Not a complete original, though. Took it from here, but I added the last three questions :) .

1. Who would be glad to have the job you hate?

2. Can you learn to see your job as they would?

3. Who hates the job you want? What do you want to say to that person?

4. Why did you begin working on that on the first place?

5. If one of your reasons was to save money, which would be a good way to keep making AND saving money in the hypothetical case you’d resign?

6. Hating your job and knowing you have good reasons to do it, doesn’t mean you have to be a slacker. They’re still paying you! Do you think you’re earning your right to get paid?*

Loving my job

leave a comment »

i♥my job
Seriously. I EFFING love my job.

Having to count a damn lot of money everyday – money that, of course, doesn’t belong to me even in a 10 percent – is just inspiring. ¬¬

Don’t be ashamed to say you have one of those ‘summer’ or ‘student’ kind of jobs. You know, the kind of job that consumes the great majority of your time and doesn’t monetarily reward you… The kind of job where you’re not your own boss…
Just open your mouth and articulate the words ‘I work doing this because I think it’s an inspiring job’ =D.

1. At a bookstore. *dreamy kind of incidental music*The dream bookstore for a lot of people would be one that combines the classiness of The Shop Around the corner and the variety of services of Fox Books (You’ve got mail). There aren’t a lot of this kind of bookstores in the World, so if you work at one, you really are lucky. Actually, even if you work at a bookstore where there aren’t more services offered -coffee shop,for example-, where there only are books and more books, you’re still lucky. Just imagine; you have hundreds, maybe even thousands of books surrounding you every day. The only smell of their pages is inspiring. There, waiting for you to read them and hopefully squeeze as much inspiration as the time spent there and attention lets you. Don’t you feel inspired already? =)
2. At a stationer’s store. Because there’s art/creativity material being sold there. Oil painting, brushes, lots of different kinds of paper, framing material, notebooks, pens, pencils, stickers,  and a HUGE  Et cetera. I feel like getting crafty right now =P.

3. At a records store. There is so much inspiring music out there! Grab a notebook and your favourite pen and just let the music of your preference guide you through the incommesurable paths of creative writing. Or maybe you prefer drawing? No problem; music can give you a hand on that too =D. Only do this when you don’t have too many customers =P.*

Undusting an old goal

I effing hate spam >.<
Well, hello there, imaginary and non-imaginary readers =) – I know I have a few of the last -.
I would really like to post more often, but I happen to have a day job. =/
Which reminds me of Zen Habit’s author, Leo Babauta and his other blog, Write To Done. There’s a post there about “How to Write Quality Posts When You Have a Day Job” that I should seriously consider to read.

*Sigh* I’d love to write stories again. Oh, now I remember I’ve never told you I used to write short novellas. And accordingly to my literature professor, they were really good. Though I never really thought they were u.u… Anyway… I even “challenged” myself to be a published author by the next year. Today I decided I’m going to take up writing again. I don’t think I’m gonna be published by next year, but it’s worth the try. Plus, lately I don’t do anything other than working  and going out with my boyfriend. I want to do something else. And what better than something I once felt at ease doing :) .

Ok, that’s it for now.

Ophelia

with one comment

Photo Thursday

One of my favourite paintings is Ophelia, by british artist John Everett Millais. It depicts the scene right before the drowning of this character from Shakespeare’s play Hamlet. Though it’s not the only painting in which Ophelia has been featured, it’s -at least in MY world – the most known representation of Prince Hamlet’s sweetheart.
The following are some links to photographs inspired by the character found in flickr. I’m even thinking of making my own version :P .

Procrastination or why you’re surfing the web instead of working

with 2 comments

Ok. I thought ‘by the time I finally write that post entitled “Procrastination or why you’re surfing the web instead of working”, I should have gotten over it’. And well, it didn’t happen. So here I am… C’mon, it’s been only three days or so.¬¬

Why do I procrastinate? Mmmmh, interesting question. I’ve always had an idea of why I behave the way I do. 

  1. It’s just that I care too much about ‘the external factor’. Meaning the way the other people see me. Then that’s why I blog instead of working… I guess… But… what about my co-workers? Aren’t they part o the ‘external factor’? Why I don’t care if they get told off because of something I was supposed to do but I didn’t?
  2. Mmhmm.. I think I have to consider as well the ‘daydreaming factor’. I want to be like a lot of people that have qualities I lack. I’d like to be more self-confident, more culturous, smarter, thinner, more efficient, funnier, a really good friend/girlfriend/daughter/aunt/sister…etc…. So I go and read blogs of people who are like I want to be. Just thinking I could be doing that. That I actually CAN do that. But I just don’t do it. Maybe because I’m afraid to fail.
  3. The reasons of the other people to do whatever ‘normal people’ is supposed to do. I take them as my own reasons. Maybe this is because I don’t know myself enough as to know what are my motivations? Anyway, when this happens, I kinda start doing things but halfway through I stop. Because the reasons why I’m doing things just aren’t my own. It just doesn’t work.

I’m not telling you this because for some strange reason I think that you – whoever ‘you’ are – REALLY care about why I procrastinate, but maybe, just maybe, you’re a procrastinator as well and would really like to figure out why you are acting that way. And this short list, though really personal, could help you start making connections between the way you act when it comes to starting and completing a task and in general, and the way you think.

Conclusion; I need to know myself a damn lot better. Work from within. Not backwards.

Well, that’s all for now. Oh, wait; here’s a post I found really interesting
