Because I have Nothing Better to do

While waiting for my appointment, I will blog. I'm supposed to be finishing this 9 page questionnaire for something that I joined, but I'm too distracted to answer the questions. Add to the fact that the questionnaire is poorly formatted, well, you can't blame me for being too lazy to finish it.

Its 4:10pm and I'm here in Serendra, hanging out by myself. This is something I used to do but haven't done in a long time. I am tempted to write in that questionnaire under hobbies and interests, "watching people," but thought otherwise. I can't have them think I'm a psycho, right?

4:12 now, I just saw this girl in platform boots who can no longer walk. Hahaha. She's now clinging to her mother, while taking little steps in her boots. I find it funny how people buy shoes that they can't walk in. I used to do it, but now that I'm older, I stopped. Comfort over style. Poor girl, I'm sure she thought about her outfit today for days, only to be hampered by the one stylish thing in her outfit.

4:15. I just lit a cigarette. Probably my last until I get back from the salon. On the table beside mine is one of my old batchmates from CSA. Oh how I hate awkward conversations, especially the "pretend I'm happy to see you again" type. Told her that but of course it wasn't true. I never really liked her in high school, really.

4:20. I don't get why people would go to Serendra just to sit around the fountains. Have they got nothing better to do?

Okay, now I have to go to my appointment. I'll write a more meaningful entry when I get back. :)

Giving Thanks

Today I'll write about the things I am most thankful for. I realize since I've been on this whole moving on thing, I've just been very surly and cranky at everyone and everything. Admittedly, now is not a good time in my life. Everyday is a struggle, like I have to make myself believe that I'm better off without him (which I know is really true, but of course, the still smitten Leigh would say otherwise), to help me get through the hours.

Anyway, I thought I'd try and reinforce positive vibes in my life right now, thus, I'm writing down the things that I'm most thankful for.

I'm thankful for..

• Life, because waking up each day is such a blessing. And I know I'd appreciate it more if I learn to start looking at things half full instead of half empty.
  
• Family, because when you're down there, all you want is a hug from someone whom you know will love you unconditionally.
• Work, because its the perfect distraction.
• Manila, because there's always something happening somewhere, and if you want to distract yourself, this helps a lot. :)
• Friends, because they make things a lot easier. They're the family that you choose.
  

Well, basically that's it. Generic, I know. But these things make me realize again and again that things will get better soon, and that's what gets me through everyday. :)
