I’ve been trying to finish this writing for a while now, but the tiredness and lack of time won over the want in every single attempt. Anyway, without further ado, let’s jump into the questions.
Ahh.. what a question. How the hell did we manage to agree upon this, I don’t know. The topic suddenly went deep. Anyway. Let’s just roll with it for the time being.
With my whole existence, I despise this thing we call boredom, not because it consumes the majority of my familiar feeling, but because of the outcome it can bring from time to time. In the short period of this life, I have realized that there are three stages of boredom. One is the mild type, where you just carelessly shrug and say, “Meh.. I am bored.” the second one is where the careless shrug turns into loud whines mixed with annoyance, and you can’t help but shout out, ‘I. AM. SO. BORED” . these two-stage are common and just as easy to deal with. But the last one, the one which I greatly despise, is the silent one, where no amount of self-control is enough to save you from that vicious helplessness. And so, I do my best to avoid that.
Reading books mostly helps when it comes down to distractions, and when I get bored of words, playing games or watching movies/animes take place in the queue. Sometime I play the ukulele, with no particular songs in mind. Occasionally, I take long walks, sometimes on known, sometimes on unknown streets. When every other possibility fails, I just sit on my bed, staring at the wall or the clock, waiting silently for the time to do its thing.
What a profound question, huh? There are just so many things that I would’ve done if it didn’t involve fear.. Naming only three is tough. So I will just randomly pick three.
I would like to swim in the ocean, middle of the night, under the moon’s dim light. I wanna see the stars while floating around in the ocean waves. It’s such an ambitious wish of mine, considering how I don’t know how to swim and I am terrified of the water.
I would take a solo tour, visit all the unknown places, experience all kinds of adventure out there that’s humanely possible. People say you can honestly know yourself while on a journey of your own, and I ever so desperately want to experience that.
I wanna walk around the city at 2 AM.. again alone. When the city falls asleep, a strange, almost surreal silence falls over on every street, corner and lamp-post lights, something I was only able to see a couple of times; I need to know how it feels while walking on a silent street with nothing but the sound of my own footsteps to accompany. A wish that will never come true, considering the world we live in.
So, there you have it. This week or should I say last weeks homonyms entry. Man, we are lazy. If you don’t know about Homonyms, check this out. Homonyms week #5
