The “MEH” Mood

Some days I just feel like “Meh”.

The “Meh” mood is this particular mood when you dislike everything. You feel tired, everything annoys you and you really don’t know why.  I think there’s nothing wrong to feel “meh” every once in a while. I imagine this feeling comes from all of the small things that bother us, they pile up and end accumulating and creating  the “meh”.

I love the word, I love how it sounds, how it expresses how I feel. “MEH MEH MEH”  It’s true sometimes we wish we could shut down everything and stay in dreamland, we want to stop the world for a while and we want to catch our breath. I really wish we could do this, but the world doesn’t stop, and neither do we.

Step one to survive the “meh” mood is to recognize you have it. So when you feel angry or annoyed or whatever you realize you’re just on that mood and you shouldn’t make a big deal of it.

Step two would be snapping out of it. Sleep. Read. Do whatever you enjoy to distract yourself and overcome the feeling. Me personally, will drink a big cup of black coffee, listen to Arctic Monkeys and read a good book.

Step Three: Breathe!  We always forget to breathe, and it’s so damn important. Inhale, feel the air filling up your lungs, forget about everything, then exhale in relief.

Well, some days this won’t even work, so we need to embrace the “meh” mood and know that tomorrow will be a new day, a better day.

I also want to share some of the things that I feel “meh” about:

MEH to hypocrites and fake friends, MEH to cowardice, MEH to braggers, MEH to being selfish, MEH and MEH to feel MEH.

Now you guys tell me what things make you MEH!

Bad situations into Opportunities

Whenever I feel sad I listen to IF I EVER FEEL BETTER (PHOENIX) over and over again. I sing it feeling every word and it helps. Every sentence of the song is true and gives you hope to go on.

Recently I’ve made some bad choices, therefore I paid the consequences but, instead of being sad and complain about it i’m being positive. I always try to get the most out of situations.

We should be thankful for the mistakes we make, because there are just opportunities to learn and to change. We, human beings, hate change. We hate it so much. We want everything to remain the same. Now, this is a huge paradox because everything always changes but at the sime time never does.  We always complain because people change, and we always complain because they never change. I don’t know how it works, I do know that old habits are hard to kill (but can be killed) and that whether we like it or not, changes are always for the best.

We might feel we are out of our confort zone and it is indeed a scary place, but we need to embrace the fall and learn all we can. Learn and apply it to our lives, because it’s useless if we know the info but never use it.

So I’m turning bad situations into opportunities, opportunities of learning, chances to  grow.  And I hope if you ever feel like the world is against you, try to embrace the situation and use it in your favor, and of course listen to the song.

If I ever feel better, remind me to spent some good time with you.

How many blogs do you have to start to actually become a blogger?

Since I was 13 I’ve been starting blogs and dropping them. A terrible habit, I know, and it shows my lack of discipline but I’m growing and  I guess that means I’m changing. This time going to be different. Why do I still insist on being a blogger? Because I’m a writer.

Most people feel sorry for writers, I have no idea why, being a writer is the most amazing thing that has ever happened to me. See, being a writer I don’t only turn my emotions into stories but I also sort of became fearless. At this point in my life, anything that happens to me, any experience, good or bad, has the potential to become a story. . And what’s really the worst thing that could happen to me? Die? I´m gonna die anyway so I might as well do something relevant with my life.

I think I  feel this urge to write and to have a blog  because I have things to say, I have deep thoughts that are always floating in my mind. There are a few people I trust and fewer people  I discuss my feelings  and my thoughts that I really prefer to discuss everything here, with myself, and you, little stranger reading on the other side of your computer.

I’m seventeen and I’m pretty unusual. Sometimes I might tell you that life is beautiful and full of opportunities (and it is) and sometimes, when i’m feeling down I might write about why humanity sucks. After all life is a Roller coaster ride.

I enjoy music and books, and, of course, writing. Sometimes I will post stories, other times I will just express myself. You’re welcome to stay, I have a feeling I will.
