Happy new year! Yes, I know we’re already into the final quarter of 2016. Seeing as I haven’t posted anything here in about I year, I figured why not just wish you all a happy new year J Anyway, I hope 2016 has been good to all of you. My year has been alright so far, I graduated but I’m currently unemployed. Trust me, four years of university does not prepare you for the unemployment that’s yet to come. I’m not totally bummed though; I do have quite a lot of free time on my hands now. Actually, I’ve made a few job applications here and there which haven’t yielded any results so far but I’m hopeful. Truth be told, I’d much rather do my masters but it seems like that will have to be put on hold for now. I guess it’s just me and my job search for now. Wow, I think that’s more than enough from me. There’s my little update for you all.
So I guess I can now get to writing this post. Here we
go......
I think I may have mentioned in my earlier blog posts that I
write as things come to me. For some reason I can’t seem to get the hang of
writing my thoughts somewhere before I publish them here on my blog. I’m saying
this to let you know beforehand (that’s if you’re a new reader) that my posts
may go around in circles until I eventually get to what I am trying to say.
With that being said, I shall now begin. *I’m for real this time*
I’ve been feeling a little down the past few days. Uhm, I
don’t think I can pinpoint a particular reason as to my current
disposition. Nonetheless, I’m feeling
much better today. I guess getting back to writing has helped. I actually took a break out from cleaning my
room to write this. Anyway, as humans it’s normal to feel down every once in a
while. We are emotional creatures and some feel more than others. What I’m
trying to say is that we all handle our emotions differently. What may be
bothering you may not seem as such a big deal to someone else. However, that’s
not to say that it is any less of an issue. I wrote something sometime last year
about being grateful. I’ll put the link right underneath this post.
I know sometimes it’s difficult to say if you’re unhappy or
express how you truly feel for fear of being called ungrateful. That is not the
case. I realized something recently, It’s okay to feel down, it’s okay to feel
unhappy and it’s also okay to complain. Regardless of your type of personality,
we all feel unhappy sometimes. There’s nothing worse than feeling unhappy and
bottling the feeling inside. I personally feel that no matter how strong you
are, bottling your displeasure about something will eat you up on the inside.
A lot of times we don’t get the
chance to address our problems but when the time does come, I advise you seize
the opportunity. Even the you may not get the chance to directly confront the
person or situation, I’ve come to realize that it helps to talk to someone
about it. I have a really good friend who I’ve known for six years now. He’s my
go to guy. There are times when he’s unable to help but simply talking to him
does the trick. He’d be so flattered if he knew I wrote this about him, lol.
I think that’s about it. Besides, I do really need to get
back to cleaning my room. I wish you all a happy last quarter of 2016. I’m
outta here...
P.S. Don’t forget, it’s okay to complain.
