Blog #01 Social Media Detox

 Right now, I am detoxing myself out of social media. Which sounds great until I realize I have no idea what to do besides scrolling Twitter mindlessly when I am bored. Although I actually have a lot of shit to finish and study so I think there’s actually something I could do.

Unfortunately, I have no interest to indulge myself with an activity with another human being. This is proven by the fact that I didn’t even go to the unit meeting I am supposedly having. I just think that 4 hours just socializing with people I don’t really know is really exhausting. I could tolerate 2 hours, but 4 hours makes me want to puke and die. I hope this condition get better, but I can’t suddenly throw myself into 4 hours meeting immediately because I became really unpleasant and hard to focus to anything anyone is saying in the second half.

I thought of going back to making arts, comics, and stories, just like I did when I was younger. But I get pretty guilty when doing that. Weird how I don’t really feel guilty when scrolling social media.

I could study a new language. I brought a Japanese learning guide and a dictionary with me, actually. I also could read some raw Japanese manga in excuse of studying.

No. I am not going to exercise.

I could walk around the city. But given how I only have time in the weekend and it’s almost dark, it’s a plan for another week.

I want to learn cooking too. But I have no ingredients around. Should I find some easy recipes and buy the ingredients and learn how to do it afterwards? I’ve been wanting to try making a shakshuka but I forgot to buy tomatoes. Oh well.

I have some books I could read too. I’ve been putting them down since forever. I could read a chapter and make a resume and post it in my blog. I noticed I love researching things I read when I got an assignment to make a resume of a chapter of a book in uni. I should do it more.

Oh, well. Apparently there are a lot of things to do.
