This being Christmas season, I have, in the past week or so, rubbed shoulders with the 10,000 other shoppers in crowded malls to do last min shopping and to buy gifts for nice ppl. Bagging good deals/ bargains has an effect similar to a sugar rush, but at the end of the day, shopping tires me out and the feel-good feeling wears off relatively quickly.

On the other hand, I find snuggling under my comforter to read my mags/ books at night while listening to music very therapeutic and soothing. I guess I'm a loner at heart and such low-energy, peaceful me-time recharges me... Having to interact with too many ppl can tire me out and some part of me just wants to hide in my lil cosy corner to chill and do nothing of much consequence :P Looking back at the year past, feel like I hardly had such luxury of time to do nothing at all by myself... Maybe I need to stay someplace with a slower pace of life, where folks around me aren't always striving to achieve this/that and working so hard all the time...
