Distractions

So while I was typing my blog today, my sister keeps on asking me about what we should do during the summer. She thought about making an online shop and selling home-made ice cream in our neighborhood. She keeps on asking me for every 5 seconds and I lost it. I forgot what I wanted to write about so I backspaced all the way and started writing this one.

Distractions. It's something that clouds our thoughts and most probably, make us feel annoyed. Imagine having your "beauty sleep" then a bus will just honk his horn, it makes you want to throw a grenade on that bus, right? (No hard feelings) But we can't help it. We all need peace of mind whenever we do something important, and mostly, when the deadline's near.

Whenever we have a crappy work, we could just say that there were distractions while we were working on that project, yes, distraction is one thing but sometimes, the only one distracting us is ourselves. We keep on thinking that we're too late and we're never gonna make it but if we all have a calm mind then I bet we can do a terrific job.

When we think about it, distractions can't be ignored. We are actually the ones who put ourselves in a position where we can be easily distracted. Imagine studying for the exams but you have your phone beside you. I know studying can be really really really really (cough) boring and we need to rest our minds for a while but if we focus on one thing, then those distractions will mean nothing.

Focus is all we need. We need to stop listening to other unimportant things for a while and focus on our work. You can't finish your research project if there's Facebook on the other tab, right? You might have other things to do and you might want to do multi-tasking but you can make a schedule. Have a day for work and have a day for fun. Balancing these activities can really help a lot. If we are organized, then those distractions will just be like a dust in the wind for us.

...well except if the distraction is your crush wanting to talk to you...then I guess some of my tips will be useless.....


Teehee.

Ruined.

We all have these moments when we tell ourselves that our life's ruined. It might be because of a book, a movie, series, talk shows, or anything that we sank our hearts and feelings into. And it just happened to me...AGAIN. Here I am typing in my blog at 3am because I just paused a series that I am watching, I didn't just pause it, I closed that VLC media player and heaved out a stressed laugh because that series was ruining my life. I know that we all got disappointed from the wrong decisions that our favourite characters make and how impeccable their bad timing is, but maybe that's what's making the story more interesting. What if our life's a movie and people have been watching it? What if they get the same reaction we do when we get depressed, sad, or even happy with whatever the main character does? What if the voices in our head are actually the voices of the people watching over our life story? I have thought about that too, it sounds interesting but it...

Hello College, Goodbye High School

April 4, 2014, the day when we finally graduated. It seems like it was only yesterday when we first stepped into our classroom. Days do go by fast, huh? While our graduation song was playing in the background, almost all of us couldn't sing because we were already crying. Parents and guardians were in front of us and after singing our song, we gave them roses and that's when all of us broke into crying. To be honest, I have seen the most beautiful moment I could have seen in my entire life. Everyone was smiling with tears in their eyes and everyone was hugging one another. Even our teachers were teary-eyed. We all said our thanks and apologized to the ones that we've hurt. Our past teachers came, too. Nothing could have been better than that. Today I woke up and realized that I can never study to our school ever again. I won't see the same faces that I have seen everyday in that school. And that school's name is Conperey. Then I also realized that I won't s...

Being Blind

Most of them say that being blind is hard. You wouldn't know where you are, you wouldn't know what's the color of this and that, you would't know how amazing earth is, you'll see nothing but darkness... But being blind doesn't mean you don't have any chances of living the good life in this world. You have the ears to listen, the nose to smell, the mouth to speak, and the skin to feel, and maybe, just maybe, that could be enough. You can listen to nature surrounding you. The rushing of the river, the chirping of the birds... You can smell what you're cooking and make it a perfect dish because you can smell the bad ones from the good ones... You can speak up your mind and also ask people for assistance because you can't really see them but you know they are there... And you have the skin to feel the wind sweeping on your face, the gentle touch of a person guiding you, the softness and roughness of things, and that's already enoug...
