It's
been a week long absence from posting because 1.) schedule has been
off the hook and 2.) there was no internet at home, my mom managed to
survive through my ordeal
by getting my postpaid tattoo and I consumed too much data and as per
the Fair Usage Policy, I was using up too much bandwidth that my
internet had to be slower to give a chance to others. For the Internet
thing- I have to say that Dominique's cute but menacing cat, Kenzo was
to blame as he chewed off the wire which took forever to fix and
restore. Now as much as I love blogging, you see, I love living beings
more so I spared Kenzo the rage blackout (not that he would understand
why I was mad) and decided to just be. I was way too busy with work
anyway and in my down time, I was actually able to do other things that I
probably would unot have been able to had there been Internet as I
would probably be too busy glued to the computer screen and browsing
through sites and meandering. I thought I would not have survived all
those days but it was actually refreshing as I got to read books, goof
up with people (well, that I do with or without Internet so it doesn't
really count actually) and of course actually bond and get to talk to
people without having to multitask. I have a really difficult time
compartmentalizing which is a debilitating side effect of my OCD so now
that I had all the time not using the Internet, I got to concentrate on
other things. A lot of freak accidents have happened the past days that I
had to check if Mercury was in retrograde but apparently, it wasn't and
there are just times that bad things happen all at the same time. The
difference between letting it get to you or not depends solely on how
you react to the things happening to you and rather than sulk, scowl and
complain endlessly, I decided to go the road less traveled and used the
time to be productive and it was good. I used the time to get to think
up ideas and things (the one where I decided to have a cotton candy and
popcorn in my booth in BU8 being one of them...but let's save that for
another blog post!). It was all about your reaction to things that
dictate how it will affect you and I am happy with how I was able to
turn a dire situation into something positive. My, my. Is it just me or
have I seriously changed so much? I like how I am responding to things
in such a zen-like manner so let all the good juju flow. I need that a
lot this December!
