(useless) information

A 26yr old female whose brain is powered by caffeine; without its main fuel source it has a working speed slower than that of a slug. That aside, she wishes she could grow a teeny weeny bit (read: a lot) taller and constantly whines about her weight. Enjoys devising novel ways to traumatise people with her bludders. Oh, and she is rather antisocial.

Waking up only when the sun's risen way up high in the sky.
Lying in bed and listening to the cars and people outside.
Reading newspapers leisurely while drinking coffee.
Watching DVDs.
Listening to live aussie radio on the net while surfing.
Watching afternoon TV.
Taking a nap.

Mundane things, yea, but really, these are what I like to do on a lazy weekend.
Something that I've not done for awhile.
Now that I've finally done these things today, I realised that I actually missed doing them.

Most of us are so caught up in the fast pace of life and the daily problems that we face, so much so that we forget how to relax. We focus on improving our lifestyles, we want to get a well-paid job, we wonder when we'll get promoted, we want to get credit cards, getting cars etc. We plan ceaselessly for our futures - when to get married, when to have kids, how to teach and nurture our kids so that they won't lose out to others in life. We worry about our finances and debts. We constantly whine about not having enough time. We set our watches ahead by 5 minutes, we buy cars so that we can cut down on transport time, we complain when the bus or MRT is late.

But sometimes, we should all learn to slow down and take a breather. Maybe find a nice couch to relax on, listen to music while having a cup of coffee. Take a walk in the morning, listen to birds chirping. Enjoy life for a change. We only live once, you know.
