Been quite happy lately, meeting friends, getting stuff done and cutting back on the alone time. I realize that keeping everything to yourself can end up badly and thinking that my friends don't want to listen to my problems is just stupid.
I spent last weekend in Tornio, a small city about 150km's away from where I live. I used to study there and live in this small hippie commun, which was another home for me at some point. Now it has been turned into this party center of the town, pot, booze and sex all day long. But I had an awesome time, we cuddled for hours and hours with friends I haven't seen in months and watched movies(missed Sound of Music on the telly though, argh) and had fun. It felt like another planet at the moment and I managed to leave all my whining behind.
This week started with great promise. Me and my friend from work were going to start yoga but the place was closed and we ended up wrestling on top of a huge mountain of snow. She is about half my size so it was fun... heh. Afterwards we came over to my place and sipped tea and talked about random stuff. It's so strange to feel such a connection to people I've only known for few months. I feel like I can talk to them about everything.
It's weird how you sometimes forget how good you are doing. You just get into this cycle of constantly comparing yourself to others and trying to run this imaginary marathon against everyone.
And I noticed a funny thing, when you're happy and confident you feel more handsome. : ) Been flirting like crazy lately cause of the boost of good selfesteem... I guess a smile does a lot huh?
