discoveries for today

Jump to Comments

I’ve discovered loads today. Really. Here’s some of them:

  1. The expression “worded laughter“; I dont know why I became so fascinated with the phrase. It just hit me when I came accross it on another blog. Perhaps it’s just that I really like using worded laughter. I dont use LOL or *snorts or anything. Instead, I use haha, hehe, hekhek, harhar and the like. I dont do this on other feelings like regret for example, I write *sigh, or for sadness, I use *sob. It was even a wonder to me that it’s my first time to hear (or read) the phrase. It feels as if I knew this expression for a long time, though. Add that to the reason(s) why I liked it so much. 
  2. Being neat and orderly feels WAY too good. I was bitten by the cleaning bug tonight. I looked at my files and reflected on how messy they look, with no real order, just stacked where they could be stacked. haha, poor mom. I did a sort of what they call the 5S thing, is the term right? For years, mom had been asking me if she could throw this or that and I would simply answer “NO, not until i have a good look at it.” I was paranoid of the idea that I may need the information on that paper some other time. So mom learned to leave my things alone. But now, I dont think I would ever need my files from high school, the photocopies and stuff, scrap papers that I kept as basis for everything, the old notes about someone or something big… After about two hours, I was finished with the living room, freed it of my garbage and it finally looked clean again after 10 mos of being messy. I’ll start with the study area soon. haha
  3. I’d rather hang out with mom or dad than with anyone else. There, I said it! She’s cool, groovy, and understand me more than anyone else. Yes, I go out with my friends often and enjoy their company immensely but for a really cool girl bonding? mom, i think, specialized in this. haha. And I feel good whenever I am out with dad for he teaches me cool stuff like driving and he lets me participate in activities mom would just say no to, like mountain climbing.
  4. Some schedules are made to be changed at the very last moment. This one I have learned several years ago…but something happened today that made me realize that it’s not just me who dont heed to the predesigned plan. *sigh* So disappointed.
  5. I calm down when I listen to a good voice. I feel more at ease when I hear some good singing. I like the music of brian mcknight, think that it is really heartfelt, specially when he sings live. The odd thing here is, my nerves can be also soothed by a rock song…something that my mom calls noisy or irritating. Once that I’ve taken a liking on a song, everytime I’d hear it, I’d calm down whatever I am feeling at the mo’.
  6. There’s a lot of REALLYs in my posts. I’ve just noticed. Ü

There’s still plenty of things I learned today, mostly through cleaning out my mess in the living room, though…but some things should be left for tomorrow, too. Ü
