It's the Dose That Makes It Poisonous

Anything can become toxic if it's taken too much. Your medications, addictions, hobbies etc. Knowing when to stop and reevaluate life is something that should be considered by anyone. Including me of course. I've always been into gaming ever since I was a little kid. Consoles, mobile, anything that catches my interest. I didn't really know what's my goal in life, at least not until I entered university. That was the very moment I realized I've wasted too much time doing something that only satisfies my short-term happiness or instant gratification.

    These days I've been trying to avoid doing those and fill up my day with things that can help me reach my long term goals. Although I still have cheat day. But hey, I'm improving. This is probably the most important thing to teach to a youngling, on how to value life and know their worth. That way they realize what they want to do in life and avoid things that don't add up to their growth. I was a careless kid, only wanted to play games rather than studying subjects. My parents told me that I should really read, study, go out etc but I didn't get why should I do those kind of things. I had a narrow mind, judgmental towards literally anything and didn't want to accept criticisms. But now that I see it they are actually good for my growth. 

You never know what the results are, but if you do nothing, there will be no results. - Mahatma Gandhi

    After having those thoughts I've been reading so much books and articles, sometimes I would skip lunch/breakfast/dinner just so I can continue and don't want to get interrupted. I was having the time of my life. Now, before you do something that you think it has a big impact to your life, consider what important tasks you have to do beforehand. You don't want to abandon your duties (although it feels great if we were to not think of them, procrastinate). If you need to eat then go eat, if you are sleepy then go sleep. Just remember not to spend more than how long you usually spend to maximize your one and only time in your life.

    Keep on growing, learning, anything you have been working on but don't overdo it. Trust me, you don't want to overdo it. Know when to stop and reevaluate your life.

Adios!

Parting Apart

I want to say I'm sorry, but I can't. Maybe I'm a hopeless romantic guy. I really love her, so much. With all my heart. Every night, it's a battleground in my head. Whether to forgive myself and just move on, or there are other layers that I have not yet discovered. I really want her to come back. Maybe it's true, love does not have to have . I want her to shine. She's a diamond of her own league. She's cute. She's my smile. She's everything for me. Now I'm getting emotional ahaha.      My sense of romance isn't getting any better as the day goes by. Practice ? That's probably the word. I need to do it. It's just, I couldn't understand her. I mean, I do have a sister. I should understand her a little bit; woman's world. Maybe much. But, like people say, everyone is unique. She's special.      I hope that she's smiling everyday; I know she's a tough one. She's an independent woman. Knowing that everything's...

Dreams n Aspirations

I want to build a library or a coworking space that can fulfill the needs of many people that want to study or work but can't because there are not that many places open for 24 hours, and free, to top that off. Feel me as a student; can't be having to spend additional expenses for a drink (?) or a snack (?) that is usually unnecessary. Not counting the sugar and other health aspects that may come together with that. Although, of course, you can always exercise more to get rid of those substances and it's good for your body to workout more often. You are going to reap the sedentary life that you sow today if you don't.      It would be a huge achievement for me and I think that's what people call as virtue ? This could even be my biggest achievement I can imagine yet. The dream comes from my habit of working something in a quiet, chilly, and comfortable place. I can't find it in most of the coffee shops in my area. I could find them in coworking space! And publi...
