A Not-So-Introvert's Attempt at Socializing

For whatever reason I can mingle with people, start conversations and make new acquaintances and yet still end up being an introvert.

Dafuq.

That didn't even make sense. ANYWAYS, I did a little observation on how I'd try to get out of the world and have a good time without much contact.

If that even made any sense - AGAIN. :))

So here's a list. I'm guessing that more'll be added to this. After all, these are methods of coping.

1. Couch potato-ing with your siblings.

- Sure, easy for me to say. Movies work, sure. But series are epic. If you have complete seasons of sci-fi, comedy and whatnots, go. Drama optional. They just make you think and feel pathetic. You wouldn't want that. Share the couch with a brother or two. A sister or two. A dog or two. A parent or two. 

And stock on Coke. Lots of Coke. ;)

2. DQ dates.

- Whether it be your best friend, ex-best friend, ex-boyfriend or whoever you consider a friend (you can bring your internet girlfriend if you're really that hopeless) to Dairy Queen. Lame, I know. But you don't really need to talk much and do much. Ta-daa.

3. Bury yourself in good reads.

- Another lame observation. Some geek you are, Miss Estrada. *facepalm*

4. If you don't like your series, lobby for squatting rights.

- Either my parents raised me to be a geek or there are just some lonely people on the face of the planet. For one whole day you can watch for a price. And you can go from breakfast til dinner. Swear. :D *double facepalm*

5. Live like a health freak, eat like you don't care.

- The weird thing I've noticed when jogging is that I tend to store extras for a day or two before you see results. Odd, isn't it? But that doesn't stop me from eating the stuff I want. Eat whatever, whenever. Don't give a crap about proportions and portions. You get to savor the morning air, stay fit, run with people alongside you BUT don't really need to mingle.

(at least there are OTHER people. hahaha)

6. Go mobile. And when you're at it, you'll appreciate "unsubscribe" all of a sudden. >:D

- It pays to go mobile. You don't need to kill to be in front of a pc in a matter of seconds, and emails are a geek's best friend. Facebook? Sure. You get to pay the hellos and happy birthdays. But you also have to endure flooders. People who rant for want of attention and not to vent out, people with duckfaces and boobfaces, boozefaces and then some.

You don't really need to make things THAT obvious. *evil laugh*

Epic failure? I'd like to think of it that way. I guess this is just the way I'm tailored. If you had a mother who excelled in the arts, a father who wanted to be a lawyer at one point and come from a brood of 8 children with a quite a number of similar traits, then let me be. :)

A Series of Unfortunate Events

So the first few months of the year didn't really come out the way I wanted it. The hormonal imbalance episodes, the angst, the drama all piling up and making you feel as if you didn't want to move on like some lame protagonist. Some martyr. Some drama queen.

You call it sick, I call it normal.

I don't really know what else is in store for me. This week progresses well while last week I was in a rut, crying my eyes out and wanting out as well. Until God intervenes and tells you that everything is gonna be all right. You just have to have enough faith and perseverance to believe that things do happen for a reason, and what is due you will come to you not when you expect it, but in its perfect time.

Dreams come true not just because you wish for it, but also work for it.

Being strong is another. Yes. All the strength is needed when you work real hard for your dreams.
