What is my Golden Rule in Living Life?
Currently, it's still a busy week for me. Maybe, I should already consider this as a usual day and adapt to the new routine as soon as I can. I always have a piled up topics to study, review, and report. Class after class, projects after projects, and events after events, it's like a never-ending cycle of tasks that I need to do immediately.
It's just my first year but it feels like a graduating student from the workloads that I'm having on my plate. Perhaps, this is the usual life in college and I'm still not just used to it. For a while, I'll be answering these random questions. I can't skip the grind despite the hectic schedule.
How do you entertain yourself when you're bored?
When I'm bored, the first that I'll be doing is pull out my phone outbof my pocket, browse on social media, and listen to the music. If I get bored of it all, it's the time where I will be going outside and take a walk. I'll go somewhere quiet and peaceful like parks, coffee shops, or at the Baywalk Area.
Nowadays, my boredom isn't like I'm losing interest in things that I usually or I don't have anything to do, but because I feel like I'm almost burned out and not just drained. I'm overwhelmed with everything I do that I can't focus, then I just tends to divert my attention by doing other things that aren't my priority though I don't have much interest with it. After going out and having to see other things aside from my school works, extracurricular tasks and side hustles, I feel refreshed and recharged. Nature has indeed a therapeutic element which can help us unwind and destress.
What's something that you thought you'd have already done by now, but haven't?
I have should have done a lot of things by now, but I'm procrastinating and doing other things instead. I just wanted to relax from time to time, so I wouldn't get myself pressured from my tasks but I always ended up not doing the things that I should have done first or the things that I should done on my vacant period to maximize my time.
Firstly, I should have edited all of the photos that I will be uploading on my future blogs but I still haven't done it yet. Secondly, I still have a lot of topics to be written on a blog and if I already did it, I should have made 3 drafts by now, then just schedule it for publishing. Third, I should have written an essay and memorize a Republic Act as one of the requirement on our signature hunting for the initiation form but I havent't done a thing now.
If I would list down all of them, I could even write a whole blog about how I enjoy my procrastination that much. I want to do them all and do some extra mile to be more productive, yet my body and my mind is already sending a time out signal to me. I always ends up lying on my bed and listening to some music until I can sleep soundly whenever I feel like doing so.
How long does it take you to form an opinion about a person?
I'm not good in dealing with people and as well as observing their behaviors or personality. I can have an impression of that person minutes after I met them and have an initial opinion but it would still change gradually depending on how much exposure that person can show me every time that we can have some encounters. I admit, I'm also guilty of judging people right away but not in a way that I will vulgarly slap my opinion of them in their faces. I would just be silent of it or just let it out if someone speaks of it first. I'm not that judgemental but it's entertaining sometimes to do so. 🤪
What's your current Golden Rule when it comes to living life?
Don't pressure yourself. Just this, actually. I meant to get out of my comfort zone, trying to explore new things, learn and build a skillset, then chase my dreams but I don't want to pressure myself on achieving all of them. I'm emotionally unstable to begin with. So, if I pressure myself and stressed over it, I'll be digging my own grave instead of improving and achieving the things thag I'm aiming for myself.
I can work under pressure but pushing myself to the edge and putting weights above my shoulder, then I can't just handle them, I'll breakdown for sure. That's where the anxiety and depression kicks in, bringing me to my doom. It's why, as much as I can, I don't want to get pressured. I'm doing it as a practice to just chill in every situation where I am in.
That's all for now. All of the questions came from The Random Questions Generator. Thanks for reading!
