How's My Life In December
|14th Dec 22| No. 348 |
There's an evident decrease in my interaction across the platforms as I'm just spending my little free time writing or editing videos rather than interacting. I know that is unfair, but that's my only way to keep the blogging going. I visited platforms occasionally though when I have more free time, but it was too different from before.
The thing is since the holidays started, there are always eyes looking after my work so I barely use my phone. It's not that I have a lot of stuff to do, in fact, I am just chilling most of the time with this youngster at home, but I refrain from using my phone as I might be reported to my bosses, lol. It's better safe than sorry.
But I do find it a waste of time when I am not doing something beneficial online. I used to write articles each day, sometimes two for Hive, but not anymore this time. I'm just writing alternatively if I can't manage to write two for both platforms at night. Staying up late at night just to make a post adding more dark circles around my eyes. But I have no other choice.
My IBS is back after spoiling myself last week, eating whatever I want, food trip at home, and outside, without minding my intolerances. Now that the consequences are showing up, no one else suffers but me. It's really so annoying to have food intolerances. I like eating even before. But I now tend to deprive myself because of the consequences. Can't I just eat? Are there even cures for food intolerances? I guess, not. This is a lifetime disorder. The holiday season is here, thus, more food to enjoy with. This sucks, right? I missed eating desserts and other else.
The temperature is now declining so it makes me feel lazy getting up so early just to do exercises and meditation. It should be the right time to warm up my body, but who doesn't like sleeping longer in cold weather anyway? I would probably just jog on weekends on some other days. Maybe after the Christmas season.
And because of this, I feel like I'm adding weight and getting stiff muscles due to cold temperatures as well. Painful muscles in the cold season give me discomfort, especially at work. So I need to stay warm all the time by wearing thicker clothes and massaging my arms and legs before bedtime.
Even though I'm quite inactive online due to my current situation, I just find this holiday season a perfect time for some relaxation and a break from online side hustles. This is the main reason why I discontinued my plan to hold a writing contest for Christmas as I might not be able to manage the contest well and monitor all entries.
The platform looks so silent this year, unlike last year. I missed those days when there are a lot of contests held by different users and the Club1BCH. The decline in rewards is probably one of the reasons. At least @Coolmidwestguy is doing something to cheer up this platform a bit.
Speaking of one. Do you still remember my Christmas beneficiary last year? Hayst. If only I can adopt her, I would definitely do it. It hurts me to see her sleeping on the street, especially in the cold season. I wish I could do more than just giving gifts to her. Unfortunately, even her family can't do anything for her. I just pray for her daily safety and health. I will definitely drop something for her again.
This year has been so productive for me but showed some downsides in some aspects of my life. So in this coming year, I just want to make things easier and lessen the pressure. I'm actually starting it already. There is one thing I noticed though, now that I'm quite inactive online, people are quite aloof as well. This only shows that "some people will only love you as much as they can use. Their loyalty ends where the benefits stop. " This adage is true, and that's truly what life is. Only real ones will stay without expecting something in return. They won't give care to those not beneficial to them.
So a note to remember, "treasure those who genuinely show love, care, and support to you." They are the real ones.
You can also reach me on my socials and let's be connected:
Grabeee! My soft heart melts even more upon seeing another photo of the same old woman na tinulungan mo before, Ate. How could her children afford to let her out there considering the current weather jan sa HK ~ I even pictured my parents to be in that situation and I can't take it. Ni hindi ko matagalan na i-imagine, hihu.
Anyways, relate sa inactivity & less interactive, Ateee. Good thing na tapos na F2F exams ko, medjo naka-luluwag na sa mga ganap sa acads. 🤸🏼♀️
