Can't sleep...

It's 3:15 am and I just can't sleep. My cousin is listening to really loud music through her headphones an my sister is arguing with her to keep it down. Waaah. I need sleep...

When I feel frustrated

I get frustrated when I have many things to do and the people around me keep bugging me about them. I need to do things at my own pace. When people keep urging me to do things, I adds stress and frustration. These two factors do not help me concentrate and end up making me procrastinate.
When I do actually get stressed and frustrated, I nee to find my ways to relieve them. Yoga, music and camomile with honey (in winter) or cold fruit (in summer) are my remedies.


The whole system of Yoga is built on three main structures: exercise, breathing, and meditation. The exercises of Yoga are designed to put pressure on the glandular systems of the body, thereby increasing its efficiency and total health. The body is looked upon as the primary instrument that enables us to work and evolve in the world, and so a Yoga student treats it with great care and respect. Breathing techniques are based on the concept that breath is the source of life in the body. The Yoga student gently increases breath control to improve the health and function of both body and mind. These two systems of exercise and breathing then prepare the body and mind for meditation, and the student finds an easy approach to a quiet mind that allows silence and healing from everyday stress. Regular daily practice of all three parts of this structure of Yoga produce a clear, bright mind and a strong, capable body.

This is my favourite yoga video. Its easy yet effective.

Music is my way of expressing myself, besides listening to music, I play my guitar. I also release my anger on it by playing a piece with a complicated strumming pattern. When it comes to listening to music, any genre will do as long as I have headphones and the volume is full on.

I like drinking Camomile cause of it's cleansing smell and the sweet taste of the honey dissolved in it. The cold fruit is refreshing and sweet cause of the summer fruit.

I would love to hear from you guys about what you do to relieve frustration or stress. Leave a comment or send us an email.

I have the phone bug

Back when I was still a small kid, the phone was only used by my parents. It never really did interest me much as I had no one to call....
But now it does. I call my best friend (yes, CC) practically every single day. We talk for hours about everything, from the most pressing teenage crisis to the craziest things ever. Sometimes, well, most of the times, really; we just goof off. Once we even discussed or favourite songs from when we were little, which mostly were songs from the Disney Princess movies. And even after we don't have anything interesting to say, we just stay surfing the Internet on our respective cell phones or computers, or watching T.V. as long as we are enjoying each other's company, we're glad.
It's not the first time one of us calls cause we have a problem in homework (mostly Physics, heh) and end up talking about something else... Until we hear our mothers screaming for us to get off the phone. ;)
The phone is my lifesaver when my parents take away my cell or IPod and is the only way I can contact my friends fast. Thankfully, our phone fees are payed with a Ready-payed contract... So the phone bill does not have a never ending price. Hehehe
All this does actually prove that I have the phone bug. Do you have it? Comment or send us an email.
