Questioning everything around me!

Sometimes, no matter how hard you try, you just don't get the results. And, you just start to question everything- question your goals, question your abilities, question life! 
That's how this week has been for me.. I know, in just two days into the week, I feel like shit already! I really can't have any more bad news now. I try so hard, putting efforts into my work, and then I just do something dumb that just blows off the whole thing. And I hate that I am so lazy! I wanna-be one of those workaholic people, who don't need to eat or sleep or take breaks. Just do what they have to do!!


Anybody got any advice? I'm getting tired of failing now.

  1. Hard work and effort never go waste..

  2. I have the exact same problem--incurable laziness combined with long to-do lists. I am so jealous of people who just wake up at 6 AM and start getting things done! What has somewhat helping is setting three simple goals each day when you wake up: I want to write ten pages on my dissertation, restock the fridge and answer all piled up emails. Period, nothing else. That way, I get less frustrated when its the end of the day and there are still a bazillion things I haven't gotten to because I got distracted and read a book for two and a half hours in the middle of the day. :) Good luck!

    1. Thanks Zanna. I tend to put too much on my plate I think, hence causing stress. I will try following your advice, and hope it helps!

A day in San Francisco — Memorial Day

If you have followed my blog for sometime, you probably know about my big move across coast. It's been a few months being a Cali resident, but I haven't gotten out as much as I would have liked.  Maybe once we move to a place, it kinda loses the tourist charm that it has when we visit for a weekend. Don't you think? I decided to make this right and this Memorial Day weekend, I spent my first Touristy day in San Francisco. Like anything else, I made a long list of places to see, and spread it across three days based on distance proximity. Yes, it was a whole weekend plan but life get in way and hence it ended up being just a day trip. The day started with a little detour at Bay Trail, near Shoreline Park, followed by a quick brunch at Crepe Vine and a beautiful long drive to the city. The Painting Ladies at Alamo Square was our first stop. These are basically just houses with a Victorian architecture and painted with three or more colors. The whole area l...

I am thankful for

1. Naps: I had been in sleep debt for such a long time now, and over this weekend I slept well and a lot, and I feel like I have some energy back.  2. Alone time: My roommate was busy this weekend, and I was all alone- just doing my sleeping, laundry, reading. Like I have said before , it is a recharge for me to spend some time with just myself without the need to talk or be there for others.  3. Work: Past few months were a long, painful wait to get work. I used to hate those days when I was just waiting and it made me feel so worthless. But finally, I have got it! Bonus point: the perfect location- it's a five minute walk to a beautiful park facing a lake. I have been going there every day during lunch.  4. Fights: Normally, fights aren't something people are thankful for. But sometimes they show you how people care for you or how much you mean to them, so yeah today I am thankful for few. 5. A good news: My childhood friend got engaged! Yay!...

There I was: a story

There I was. Standing in the midst of the hustling crowd, all excited faces around me, all waiting for a change - a new start. Some of them might want a new life, a new career, a new direction or maybe even a new love, but they all had one thing in common - all they wished was to leave behind their past full of mistakes and bad memories, a past filled with betrayals and broken hearts, a past that witnessed all disappointments and let downs. They wanted to put it all behind them, and start over new. They all needed to move on, just as this night would leave behind the darkness and turn into a beautiful canvas, with sparkles all over it, in few minutes. Yes, it's the New Year's Eve party. And I could see all eyes around me carrying that sparkle in them, ready to take risks, ready to go for another adventure, to face their fears, to dare playing with their hearts again. I was wondering what I was doing there, I had no one to be with, no one to kiss at the new year. Go...
