Sometimes you just need a good cry

Most nights I find myself laying in bed staring at my ceiling for hours on end with not much thoughts running through my head. often times I get really sad for no particular reason. 

I simply just want to cry. 

The next thing I know I’m laying there and tears would just start rolling down my cheeks. Next, my pillow would be soaked in tears. I stare at my ceiling simply wondering why but I can’t come up with an answer. I simply just needed to cry.

Well-rested

After weeks of crappy sleeping schedule I finally managed to get enough rest. My sleep schedule is still pretty bad but it’s great to be able to just fully rest sometimes. I feel like I get so caught up with work and trying to keep up a pretty active social life that I end up drained at the end of the day with not enough time to properly rest. How I function with little to no sleep almost every day is beyond me.

I made an illustration a few days ago while I was on break at work. I couldn’t stop thinking about the phrase “growing up Filipino” and this was the first thing that popped in to my head. For me, personally, this product was something that was around throughout my childhood. Milo was something that was provided to children at schools to apparently make them “stronger”. I say that in quotes because it was basically advertised as a drink that will grant the individual athleticism which obviously is not true. 

Despite the false advertisements though I still enjoyed this chocolate drink. It certainly quenched my thirst after P.E class.

my usual afternoon thought

Often times I feel alone. I know I have these people in my life that I can talk to about basically anything but I can’t help and still feel lonely. This feeling frustrates me I don’t even know why I feel that way. It doesn’t even make sense. How can one feel lonely even though they’re surrounded by a lot of people who cares about them?

Do any of you have ever felt that way? How do you cope? A lot of the times I simply get sad enough that it tires me and I just end up in a deep slumber.

Greetings

I’m just going to make this quick and short since I am not the best when it comes to words. Basically, my name is Giselle and I made this blog in hopes of finding people who can relate to whatever it is that I go through in life. It really is just a window to not just my life but basically my thoughts as well. An online journal really. Don’t get me wrong though I do have people in my life that I can talk to but this feels more freeing in a way.

Here’s to me hoping I can keep this space consistent and hoping that you guys won’t feel like you are alone.
