Sunday Evening. I don't like the feeling I get from it... the week's coming up and I already get to think 'bout what I'll have to do, university, teachers, studying, and so on.
Isn't that boring? I think it is for everyone, or at least I know a lot of people who don't like Sundays cuz they already get bothered bout the upcoming week. Well, that's the way it is, we can't help it! The only thing we can do is trying to enjoy the weekend as much as we can, which doesn't mean actually to just go out clubbing or celebrating or anything like that, "enjoying" can simply mean "relax". Resting after a whole week of work is good!
Resting may mean just being home and taking care of our hobbies or maybe means going out for a walk or drive somewhere and have a chat with a friend, or spend some time with people we know.
Usually I spend my weekends just by being home, studying, resting. Tho studying doesn't help resting at all! It usually stresses me and makes me go cranky. BUT I have to do it... it's my "job" somehow and I have to stick to the habit.
But at times it's reall impossible to just stick to this habit. That's what happened this weekend.
After being sick I just had enough of everything and I wanted to rest for real... so on Saturday I thought, "okay, I'm not gonna study today... I'll just be quiet, listen to music and write". It perfectly worked out and I spent Saturday doing nothing! In the evening I went out for dinner and got back home, had some late time online with my friend and then simply went to bed (it was 3AM, darn Internet!!! lol).
Now this morning I thought, "okay, I'll study this afternoon", but things ended up differently than I planned! I woke up and I realised my voice was better, but still I was feeling very lazy!
End of the story... I didn't do anything...at all!!!
What did I realise? Well.......... I understood how important is to be just idle!
...or at least from time to time! Yesterday I spent some time just lying on my bed, legs up against the wall, watching the ceiling, with music playing at a very high volume: me, my thought, my silent singing (no voice to sing out loud!) and some good music, while texting my girl, Steph.
I was totally relaxing, enjoying time, feeling good as in not caring and not worrying for at least half hour! Wow... how nice is that? We should all doin' it! Being idle, lazy, doesn't mean I'm someone who doesn't want to work or do anything or that I just want to avoid doing what I have to do, it just means... well, it mean that I need some good time for myself throwing out all that stress and negative thoughts or stress putting pressure on me!
It feels lovely!!! And for the first time ever I was like... "oh wow, that's good!"
Today I didnt do anything, I didnt even relax or anything, I was totally lazy...that got me bored on a moment... but you know, if you just really make some time to relax, then you won't get bored, I can assure you you'll just feel way better than usual!
So people... just lay on your bed, put some music on and do not think about anything worrying you or giving you the blues; or lean on your room's window, breathe some fresh air, look at the landscape, the city spreading in front of you, the sky, let the wind in, among your air and let your favourite song out; cuddle up on the couch, write, draw, paint, whatever, take your time; go out, go skating, go walking, go biking, go for a stroll and sit in the park, on a bench, taking pictures of what you see, watch people passing by, put your mp3 on and try to give to the music you're listening to, a "video", a story starring people, strangers walking by you................
That's freedom, that's being relaxed, that's enjoying life, that's feeling good in a natural and simple and easy way, with no need of too big things coming up our way or too many "fun things" to do!
....or that's what I believe!
I wish everyone a good week....
Take care
