Holding on to my Comfort Zone

As a Taurean, I’m a pretty rigid individual. I strive for stability and I abhor change. I work well under pressure but I hate being rushed. If change is a must, you have to give me time to warm up to it and even so, I might fight against it. I do not do things without thinking it over.

I’d like to think that after 26 years I have matured in some way. If things do not go the way I want them to, I’ve learned acceptance (after stewing about it for a day or two). I no longer expect the world to give in to my EVERY whim (although I still expect to get MOST of my wishes). And the most difficult of all, I’ve subjected myself to change and go out of my comfort zone – provided of course, I’m given time, lots and lots of it.

However, yesterday my “maturity” was put to the test and I failed. I was caught by surprise, way out of my comfort zone and I bolted. Funny, your mom always does that to me. I don’t know her that much and we barely met. For all I know she might be really nice and dandy but she terrifies the hell out of me. Yesterday’s disappearing act was a testimony of my fear. I barely saw her outside the airport door but I jumped and ran as fast as I can carry my luggage and never looked back. As I said, I don’t like being pushed out of my comfort zone, yesterday I was shoved and slammed and I panicked. After some deep contemplation (about 30 min of taxi ride back to the apartment), and no thanks to my roommate’s non-stop laughter, I realized how hilarious I looked and I’m deeply embarrassed.  I am sorry and all, but really, would it be terrible of me to ask NEVER EVER EVER EVER EVER, to go through that again?

Start My 365

It's the new year and mostly everyone everywhere has been going on about this 365 thing. I got curious but never had the time. Then I realized I will never have the time unless I MAKE time. That's the truth when you're a grown up. Everything has to be a choice. You choose your clothes, you choose your friends and you choose to make time for things that matter. This year I will make this 365 a project. The idea is to start it and of course the goal is to finish it. But starting and finishing doesn't have to be within this year (how cool would it be if I get to pull that off!). Anyway to kick things off I created a new blog for My 365 which is http://canence365.blogspot.com. Original, eh? Wish me luck!
