I’m grateful of being able to wake up naturally on most days

Today, I’m grateful of:

Being able to wake up naturally without an alarm on most days

Being able to pay for ASM course and go to the event!

Being able to go to Thailand with Cyndi!

Having friends like Cyndi, Amerson, Carly. And just laughing lots watching TV.

Having friends who appreciate my jokes

Can help my friends – Cyndi with her coverletter, Deeann by promoting her in alopecia group.

Becoming smarter – from drinking 7 glasses of water!

Becoming small-waisted again – from working out everyday the past 6 days!

Developing some great habits – planning out the day, drinking water, exercising, hanging with friends, helping friends, motivating myself with gratitude and good books! I think self knowledge helps! Knowing what I need in order to function well.

Unmotivated

I don’t know what is wrong with me. I have no drive today.

2 days ago I went to see The Hobbit with Norm. Found out that Norm had cheated on his ex-girlfriend for no good reason. On the way home some guy asked to borrow $15 for gas. I didn’t want to because I didn’t really trust him, but in the case that he might be honest, I didn’t want him to be stranded. So I lent it to him. It’s money that I can spare, but I was really hoping that he’d be honest. Yesterday, I texted him twice and I didn’t hear back from him. I guess he was lying. I’m so sick of these ugly people of the world.

I dunno if it’s these disappointments in humanity that killed my drive, or the fact that I’m not making money and it makes each day so unfulfilling. I know for sure that if I make thousands of dollars a day, like Matt Clark, plus that everything I touch turns to gold, plus so many people are grateful of my work and me being who I am – I’d wake up to each day with joy and enthusiasm.

I guess I’m working towards that. I wish that day comes soon. It seems to happen so fast for Matt. I really wish I were him.

He had a job for 7 months. Quit. He then started on Amazon, and that started doing well in less than a year I believe. So basically anything he does happens in less than a year or two. Knot Theory has been dragging along for almost 5 years now. I’m so old and so tired. I don’t know how to go on. I wish there’s something or someone to pull me out of this slump – both in how I feel and my financial state.

Norm Cheating

I went to see Hobbit 3 with Norm last night.

I was very upset to learn that he cheated on his last girlfriend. I tried not to be judging, but he did it while the relationship was good, and he did it just because he wanted variation in the bedroom – different body types etc. WTF. I resent that.

I really feel no respect for him. He is boring, but I thought at least he had integrity. But nope. I’m starting to wonder if he is a friend I should even keep. I don’t feel like helping him with his depression now. I think he is just stubborn. Most importantly, he has no compassion towards others if he cheats like that.

Dreaming lots

I seem to dream everyday now. At least, I seem to remember them now.

Nothing spectacular. The night before, I dreamt of having a fight with mom…I can’t remember what is was about now. Oh yeah, flower petals….she bought some flower petals and I can’t use them to make cards because they were really expensive. They were white, fragrant, and elegant petals. I went and bought a bouquet of colourful flowers and used their petals instead. I don’t like those dreams.

Last night I dreamt about Idriss writing me an email as a reply to an email titled “Counter Attack”. I think he said some friendly things. No matter. I’m just writing the above down in case they come true.

Last night I also dreamt of eating some sugar canes with dad. Dad asked me about my passion. I decided that my passion was not about a specific thing, like, scuba diving or fashion design, but instead, it’s about a certain type of experience. Can’t passion be that? It’s an interesting revelation for me. We always expect passion to be about an item. It could be a feeling, like liberation and freedom, seeing and experiencing new things, or thrill seeking.

I like this last dream the most 🙂

Cry a lot, white heads, better hydration

I cry a lot the past…year it seems. My body is probably going through some change. I’d cry when I sing a song, when I watch a touching youtube video, when I read a touching sentence on Facebook, when I watch Disney cartoon, etc etc. Why??? I think it’s hormone imbalance.

White heads. I have been having wheat almost everyday the past 2, 3 months. Small amounts, but almost everyday. It doesn’t seem to give me acne the way it used to, and I almost feel that I’m immune to it now. But these past few days , I notice that my chest acne feels more prominent. I picked at it, and now I have a big red acne between my boobs. Ugh. If only I can get rid of all these tiny bumps on my chest. Tiny whiteheads (even on my nipples), tiny subcutaneous cysts. When I have money, I really want to do something about them…

Yesterday was the first day in a long time that I made sure I drink 7 glasses of water. Today I’m better hydrated already. I can see it in my hands. I felt quite focused and productive yesterday too. I even got stuff gone late at night! I usually don’t have the stamina to do anything after 7pm.

I can’t tell if my puffy eyes are better. I do facial massages / slight exercises everyday, I can’t really tell if it’s working either. In the bathroom I look fine. Then I go outside and see myself in the elevator mirror or have an IMAX picture taken and I look old.

Started Neocell’s Blueberry Hyaluronic drink around January 1st, 2015. I think it helps a little bit with my joints. They feel more lubricated. We’ll see if it helps with skin too.

Knot Theory optimization: What tasks are making money / saving me time?

There’s something wrong with the way I handle Knot Theory. I spend too much time on it. It’s time that I decide what is necessary and what is extra.

The past 2 months I have had to come to Vancouver 3 times. Granted once was for diving and twice was for my teeth, but still, I seem to spend way too much time on KT and none of that is making money.

1. I came here to get the embroidery machine.

2. I came here to get the fabric and to sew the knot

– fabric – didn’t have any in Vic. Elena has it.

– knots – no need to worry about it no more. Alice will sew some and when that is sold out, it’s done. I still have about 50 cufflinks though. Can make more knots.

– ties – tried to accommodate customers – ok for now since I still have the materials

– will list knot packs and the KT necktie with the knots
