Blah

I feel extremely depressed today. I don't know why, actually I might know why, but at the moment, I'm simply trying to practice the exercise that my friend taught me: think of 3 good things in every bad situation. So I guess I should make a list of a 3 good things and come back and read this later in the day. (This is also my first blog entry from work...shh)

Positive thing about life #1. I am healthy, as far as I know.

Positive thing about life #2. The fact that I'm writing this from work means I actually HAVE a job which is not something everyone can say right now, and it's something I am thankful for.

Positive thing about life #3. I have great friends who I can depend on to help me pick up the pieces whenever I need to.

Ok, exercise complete. Now back to staring morosely at the blank graph paper in front of me.

My Resurrection

In the spirit of Easter, I would like to announce my resurrection in the blogging world. The religious among us will probably consider me a heretic for alluding to Jesus in this way, but I guess by birth I am a idol-worshiping pagan, though I don't fully believing in any religion. However, this post is not about my religious beliefs. In fact, I want to keep my religious and political beliefs out of my blog (for the record, I'm a registered Democrat and an agnostic).

I have been extremely busy lately, that is no excuse to stay away from my blog and my writing which I love more than anything, but I'm going to state my excuses anyway. I moved and was busy unpacking and buying new things and setting things up, I didn't have internet for about two weeks and felt bad writing blog posts from work, and I'm always super tired with work and school taking up all my time. So there, those are my excuses! Henceforth, I will make time to write in my blog somewhat regularly.

As for anything interesting that's happened in the past few weeks, there has definitely been things worth writing about, but they can't be properly expressed till I'm inspired to write about them. What I am looking forward to doing over the next few weeks is browsing small bookshops and finding nice books to fill my bookshelves with. So, here's me making a toast to the written word.
