good activities

I’ve realised that it is not what you do when you work that is going to affect how the rest of your day is going to be like, it’s what you’re gonna do after work that’s what’s important. It’s like, you can have a completely shitty day, complaining left and right about all the responsibilities that you have and wish you can run away from but if you have a pretty good after work plan, it’s all a different story. When the clock strikes 6 (for my case), I automatically feel better.

Because at 6, I’m free. I can tumblr all I want and nobody can say anything about it because it’s after hours and so what if I’m still sitting in the office, I’m off the clock yo! On a typical day, my idea of a good after work activity would be:

-          Backtracking my tumblr dashboard (usually for an hour or so on a typical day)
-          Dinner and crap session with the frolleagues
-          Going back and have a nice hot shower
-          Curling on my bed with my laptop watching any dramas I’m chasing at the moment or any funny short video clips I downloaded throughout the day
-          Curling up with a good fic or a book (the book part rarely happens though haha)

If I had the energy I would probably watch a movie or something but it usually never happens because I know I won’t have the energy to finish the whole thing and I hate watching a movie half way because I know I will probably never finish the second half.

These few days I’ve ventured into another ship (google if you don’t understand) and omg I am in too deep too fast but I regret nothing! There are so many things to discover and I love the initial hunt whenever I board a new ship. It’s exhilarating and when you find something good, it’s so satisfying. I’ve been doing this for years now and every time I venture onto a new fandom, the feeling is the same and I love it so much.

My favourite day of the week now is officially Wednesdays, because two of my favourite shows air on Tuesday nights (ang moh time which translates to Wednesday mornings our time). It is so awesome to download it and then look forward to the end of the day and watch it when you hit your bed. It drives you really. And I love it.

Of course, all the above is talking about a very typical week for the first 8 months of this year. It’s a completely different story now. Not that I’m complaining about my new after work activity. I just have a new activity I have to slot in but other than that I can do everything as usual. It only depends on my energy level after the new slot, which usually happens after tumblring and before dinner. After that, all can proceed as planned so not much complains here actually. I’m quite good.


Oh and p/s: if I ever have kids, namely daughters, remind me of the name Natasha. Thanks.
