Mental Exhaustion

rahayu.........so..........sick.........'hA-ChOOooOoO!!'..thats an actual sneeze. It's one of those...no warning whatsoever sneezes that I had been having since yesterday ever since my 'little flu' (as stated in my previous entry) has graduated into runny mucus and my nose all clogged up.


There's some things that I wanted to blog about but was too tied up with teaching my bro just now and since he slept earlier and woke up around 9 plus. I had to endure my clogged up and dripping with flu nose while thinking through the maths questions which I was teaching him from a past exam paper. Sometimes I just think that I have no life or that the sacrifices or the mistakes that I have made are just too much to bear and I wish I could escape from them or pretend they all had never happened. But Im just human...and these kind of things are considered 'normal'. Of course I have learnt from them and has tried to change for the better by not going back to the past. Still, I do face the dilemma of my past mistakes and it can be a very tiring affair.


I do feel dumbfounded at times like what am I supposed to do even though only God knows that each day, I try my very best to not make any single mistake or I have to bear the consequences later. It's easier to say that I wont do any crime because I dont want to end up in jail later as that will be such a major mistake. Im talking about the smaller mistakes that can be just as bad like you feel your whole life has been placed behind invisible prison bars. Without Wentworth Miller...I dont believe I can still crack a joke.


But you know what? I must still be grateful. Many people go through difficult times in their lives and there are those who are destined to be in that kind of state for the rest of their living years. But they still carry on living...still able to put a smile on their face....still look forward to seeing each day as a new beginning...and still want to help others in times of hardship even though they are struggling themselves.


Such people give life a new meaning nevermind if things have not gone according to what they have planned because of the undesirable situations they are facing. So far, I am grateful I have not made any brash decisions yet but of course, I feel so 'distanced' with myself that I don't know if there is anything left in store for me. Plus, the fact that snippets of my past still do haunt me even though I have tried my best to steer them away from me by giving them what they want but they just wont let you go that easy. Sometimes I just don't know what to do plus the fact that I have been keeping them to myself do drain me mentally. I actually dont have to face these problems alone but I don't want to drag anyone else down for as long as I can as I still feel that no matter what, it is still part of my responsibility. The only thing that I did promise to myself is that I will not be so naive anymore and because of what I have gone through, I have become too cautious and too pessimistic. I have always been a positive thinker or at least have the ability to 'block' my mind temporarily so I can focus on whizzing past the things I dread to do or look forward to. So far it has worked for me well but it can be exhausting mentally and physically that so much so I....fall sick like this.


This flu and bad cough is the far end of it...usually I do get symptoms of getting ill like spinning headaches when I get back home or a bad sore throat but will get better later the next day or after the weekend. I guess....I think it's time for me to take a mental break coz Im just so exhausted right now. Im just gonna charge through my life and not think about how it can get me down at times. It is not as if everyone is having an easy time except me. I just want to have some inner peace of my own.

One Step at A Time

Hello there It has been a while, right? I used to treat this blog as a place for me to rant, talk about nonsensical things and interests that, when I think back about it, were pretty cringeworthy. But it was part of the process of me growing up and navigating through my life which is full of ups and downs, just like the tidal waves. I still need a form of outlet to write out my thoughts and I have been journaling for the last few years. At first, I was still writing nonsense, or simply writing about how my day went, but I try to make it a more conscious journalling where I will write about things that I can take lessons from or to reflect on. So how has life been for me? Well, I no longer am running an online shop where I used to do customised cards and then just specializing in box cards. I do want to have an online business, preferably one I don't have to travel to meet people.  If you read my last post about being zen, I think I have 'tripled' the amount of zen inside of...

Listen to Me

It kinda irks me when I am trying to express an opinion or sharing a piece of knowledge but it's met with strong objection or Im being cut half way before I even finished. I mean...come on...does it hurt to actually listen first, doesnt matter if u agree or not? Yes I know everyone is entitled to their own opinions but it's frustrating because I feel like a sore loser. That sort of conversation is actually begging to be turned into some huge argument if I am equally annoying and equally strong headed as well. But I dont want to do that especially if they are my friends. Then again, I am subjected to being called a wimp or somebody who cant stand up strong against what she believes in or her own opinions. That will sorta give the person a sense of pride for getting a landslide victory. At first I used to think that hey, maybe the person has a point and I am wrong. But come to think of it, that's bull! It's one thing not to argue and another thing to let ur own opinions b...

Ray of Light

The act of falling in love. Very subjective and it also depends on the object you desire. Well, if it is the 'whoa mama!' sort of hunk or good looker, then yours truly has fallen in love many times over and over again. But a guy who has stolen my heart for good..well...that has yet to happen. But let's not talk about my non existent love life. Let's just ponder over the act of falling in love. From what I have observed through several tv shows or even movies, I gather that well..not everyone is so lucky to have fallen in love at first sight. It takes time, and maybe it will even take boyfriend after boyfriend or girlfriend after girlfriend before reality smacks your face and you end up with your very first boyfriend (gasp!). What a truly merry go round. Hey, it happens. Because we make mistakes and we are too blind to notice how someone can truly bring you happiness by their sheer volumes of care and concern for you. In the midst of crisis, a ray of light shines through...
