I have been so stupid

Not news. I'm sure I've talked about this somewhere before. My whole life has always revolved around one principle: Always assume the worst outcome so that you're prepared for it when it happens.

It was sort of like a self-defense barrier to me. By preparing for the worst outcome, I wouldn't be as strongly disappointed as I would be. I had called it a realistic approach to things in my life, and I would also make sure to balance out the negative and the positive aspects of every single thing I was dealing with. All this while still maintaining a neutral attitude

I can't say that this method was a bad idea though. Being a thoroughly positive person has never worked out for me, as being someone who can't handle failures and hardship well. 

Looking at the dark side is a way of looking out for myself, while thinking of the bright side gives me hope that things could get better. I am my own motor and brakes. 

The other day, however, I thought about my life a lot (as usual) in conjunction to something I learned quite recently. It'd about the Law of Attraction: which is basically a belief that you alone have the power to attract the things you desire in your life just by directing your thoughts and attitudes toward it. 

Strange times

This last few weeks I was starting to miss my Instagram account.  I love photography, and taking pictures of things like nature, sceneries, or anything I can find deep meaning to. I am used to sharing my pictures on facebook, but I was starting to thing I wanted a wider audience for my next themed-project. I had quit instagram after I lost my iPod, right on my last year of high school. So after two years I logged in for the first time. 

And well, it didn't feel very good

ANNOUNCEMENT!!

Hello my darlings! How are you all doing? 

So starting from this month I want to take my blogging activities seriously, and I want to start doing that by writing more. The problem is always not knowing what would be worth writing about, or not finding the time to write it. So in order to keep my writing flowing and continuous, I will be trying this ''30 Day Blog Challenge'' from Zehira-blog . The list of ideas all look quite fun and random.But I am going to make this into a ''30 Week'' instead. I will be working on this project along my usual posts and book reviews. 

By doing this, I can try and promise that you will find at least ONE new blog post every week. I hope that by the end of this challenge, you guys can all get to know me better and continue to follow me throughout my blogging journey. As I've already mention in older posts, I am hopelessly bad at promoting myself on social media, so much that I don't even want to try! But for now, I'm good like this. I appreciate the people who have contacted me on Tumblr with positive feedbacks. You guys are the best! We are a small army of Bookerflies for now. I want to write and keep it personal for now, while I experiment with what works for me and what doesn't. Hopefully one day my writing will get better and confident enough so I can consider going out there and share what I've written in my blog with everyone else. Oh and meanwhile, if you're reading this and have a blog of your own, don't be invisible! Be my blogging buddy! Leave me a message on Tumblr or comment down below your link and on what you think of my blog so far (be honest! I promise I won't cry. Maybe... :p)

Hope you will look forward to it.

Summer is coming + thoughts on time so far

Hello again! If you're reading this, I'm surprised you're still here and would like to come out of the screen and personally hug you for being here. Like seriously, thank you! I know I have been neglecting this blog again for some time. I already have so many blogs which I have started with so much enthusiasm and only to have it fade away a couple of months later. But I really want to make this one work. It has become a personal project of mine to not quit anything I love doing this year. So far, I like writing here, even though very few of you are reading it than the numbers I had on Tumblr. But my Tumblr now is so full of reblogs that the personal feeling I have here is lost.

As June begins, I'm glad most of the stress has decided to give me a break. And now I have to build up a timetable and a list of activities to keep me busy and focused. It is so easy to loose you way from your life goals during summer holidays.
