"Sundae and Fries"
Feeling sad? Stressed or down? COMFORT food is the KEY!
What is comfort food?
Foods that provide consolation or well-being. Most of the time, it contains high sugar, carbonated, or may be associated with childhood. This is when you feel nostalgic while eating. Perhaps home cooked.
If some men went for drinking sessions with their buddies to lighten their moods, we women would go and choose comfort foods. Not only when we are sad but also when we are angry. I don't know what the magic from FOODS can ease the anger, lol! Do you agree with me?
Yes, I am one of those women. Often when I am not in the mood, I would seek for a food. Let me rephrase; it's most of the time.
Honestly, I feel blue since the weekend. Maybe the disadvantage of aging. (insert thinking, how old I am). Getting emotional, " Nag iinarte," or maybe because I already experienced a lot in life which I am just keeping. As I wanted to stay strong, I didn't want to complicate things. ALL I always wanted is PEACE.
What I have wanted since yesterday is to stay in my bed. I don't have the energy to move. Even a cup of coffee was not effective. However, life must go on. Nothing will happen if I spend time SULKING. So as much as I wanted to procrastinate, I chose NOT to.
I went to work and did my routine like a programmed robot. That's all I did yesterday. So today, while auditing some financial reports, I decided to go out and have a break. I just ate my lunch, but it seems I am craving something.
My feet brought me to the nearest fast food chain in the building. OH, YES, I think this is what I need. SUNDAE and FRIES. Who cares if I am just alone?
I was tempted to upgrade the fries to a larger size BUT opps not that healthy! This will do. I spent an hour in the store even though this was only my order. I just chatted with my Boss. I am outside having some " EMO" moments. Glad she understands. She is really the best. If not because of her, I already leave the company.
I think sugar helps as it somehow lifts my mood. I left the store with a smile on my face. The power of FOOD!
It also added to my good mood when I checked my notification and saw a message from Hivebuzz.
Yesterday was the scheduled PUD ( Power up day) at Hive, and I joined for the first time. I aim only to reach 100HP, but I didn't expect I could power up 55Hive. That makes my HP total 129. That was already a significant achievement for a newbie. Like others, I am also aiming to reach 1000HP. Who doesn't? As much as I wanted to spend time and be a Marites. I could not as I need to used my RC wisely! OMO! Weeee, it seems I need to work harder for it.
Back to the Hivebuzz message, I got notified that I am qualified for level 2. Not only that, I received that BEE!
Oh, wait I only made 100 comments? I really need to engage more this month. I trust my HP now can help me.
This is what I mean that I should not spent time sulking. Better to spend it grinding. Hitting two birds in one stone. I would not feel blue as my attention was diverted and the same time I earn something to invest.
By the way, to all my fellow Filipinos here, HivePH will be hosting an Onboarding Webinar on August 13. You might be interested, check @tpkidkai article here.
You might wonder how my topic suddenly jumped, pardon my randomness tonight.
By the way I noticed only few managed to published articles now. Seems many are busy with life outside this platform. I've been missing several of my friends here.
Guys? Where are you now? " Paramdam naman kayo, bago ko pagawalin ang baso".
How about you? Are you okay
