I've been off on here for a second. Honestly, I wasn't busy, well.. I was busy relaxing because I totally needed to. I worked myself out to total exhaustion without some proper recovery times. Esp with how hard I hammered on my Abs/core muscles with some weighted sit ups a while ago. Finally feeling good today. Yesterday I honestly think I can say I found my new favorite food. Almost entirely flawless besides not being usually socially acceptable. I got some raw cold salmon from the health food store here, the back still had the skin on it with the scales peeled and it was already seasoned but made to be cooked, of course. But I just ate it raw and it was so fantastic! The skin is really hard to break up with my teeth and it's a bit messy. I was eating it inside a home improvement store since I'm taking apart my desk and spray painting it white today.
On the other hand. I honestly feel like going like.. semi-phone free besides my music, camera, and my phone (number) to try it for a week. I have CDs and the alike so I could even go without music on my phone. A "dumbphone" like a flipphone would be nice, But there's the issue of carriers and actually getting one all that. So i'll do as minimalists do and just turn my normal phone into a dumb phone. For context's sake, I only use tumblr, and maybe pintrest sometimes.. (Maybe I'd keep pintrest, I'm an image addict..) but my other accounts usually go unchecked.
Reason being is that I need to get used to silence but also I've been focusing more on more skill-set things and letting my phone stay somewhere else has done a lot of good for my subconscious. I need to learn to get bored again.
Even as far as youtube and the alike on my computer I only really watch videos related to my studies, or picking up a skill.
I don't know, Simply put if someone needs me for something, then I'll see it when I get home, or it'll be through my actual messages. Anything else can't be that worth my time, right?
I also figured out my best ideas sprout up when I'm walking or plainly just focusing my mind onto an album. Letting it actually seep in. It used to be in the shower, But that went away. I think because I get so stressed. I want that feeling back for sure. I can see why when we had less internet and had to focus so hard on the things we enjoyed even, not even things we wanted to ignore, we as people just took things in more. People had more outlandish ideas. I feel like a lot of people can say their best ones come from moments of either silence, forced onto them, or things like showering, or from music, or focusing really hard on what they enjoy.
Also yes.. I was that guy to say "I don't use tiktok but-" During the small moment it was down. And i'll be annoying about it haha.
I've been reading more: Here's a list. I'm hitting fighting hard to finish the books I said i'd engage with this year! This one generic samurai history book, The fable manga (I wish i owned this physically now more than ever. I'll buy the later volumes..) and i'm slowly re-reading cats of the louvre, as i do, every year. And I'll work on finishing Ooku and ten count. I've been watching more hajime no ippo for immersion. My love for actual anime is actually kind of coming back. I mean fuck the highschool trope-y anime of the week though.
After typing this post.. Hell yeah I'm set on the idea of "no phone". This might be one of the rare few times I can do it. I'll try to go for a week. I'll update here, maybe?
I feel like the kind of person that just is addicted to doing things. I got my head buzzed recently, Just because. I look amazing, I feel like I shed some part of me that woobifies me.
