Blogging Way of Life

• Getting Up Every Morning

There are some days when you wake up and don’t ever want to leave the bed, sit all day watch cartoons. Especially when there is a storm outside and you are feeling like you are chained to your warm bed. Too bad you aren’t at school anymore and you gotta hit the storm. Every frakking day. (Our thanks to Battlestar Galactica for this lovely word:) There is a new social organization in Denmark which describes themselves as “Morning Haters” and called B-Society which push companies to allow B-society to start work after10-11 a.m. I hope they help all the worlds B-society.

• Time

The time passes by quickly. You turn the speed up by going to the same job everyday and living the same day over and over. You start to lose your sense of time and when you look back you see years left behind. A quote from Rumble Fish (to make you more depressed):

“Time is a funny thing. Time is a very peculiar item. You see when you’re young, you’re a kid, you got time, you got nothing but time. Throw away a couple of years, a couple of years there… it doesn’t matter. You know. The older you get you say, “Jesus, how much I got? I got thirty-five summers left.” Think about it. Thirty-five summers. .”

• Boss

If you have a psycho boss you know what I mean. Employees sitting around in fear waiting for the “YOU’RE FIRED” talk. This is actually about the character of the boss. If he/she has a huge ego waiting to burst with the authority of being a boss prepare for torture. There are some people who actually become a boss at the same while remaining a joyful person. (The statistics show that people who has a big ego and always in the pursuit of proving themselves are more likely to become bosses. This statistic belongs to me:)

• Seeing Same People Every Day

There are some days that I am even bored of myself. The odds of having some colleagues that can transform into the most annoying creatures in time is really high. As days pass every gesture and detail of a person will grow bigger and bigger in your eyes. Thinking of many years to come prepare yourself to pain and agony.

• Feeling Trapped

This is modern slavery. Whatever you do you have to keep working working and working. The time you are given to spare your self is just greasing the gears and getting you ready to work for more. It is the feeling of being trapped like a rat in a cage; that really gets you down.

• Forward Mails

If you are working in a big company with lots of employees then you will receive a mail with subject: Fw: LOVELYYYY CATS every day. I have a cat myself and I love cats but I don’t love people forwarding cat photos everyday and waiting for sympathy.

• Traffic

This one is valid if you are living in a crowded city with bad public transport. Normally it takes 45 minutes from work to home. In weekdays it takes 2 hours approximately. 2-3 hours a day in the traffic can turn you in to a monster.

Okay don’t get so depressed. Don’t stop dreaming. When your dreams are gone too you have nothing left to depend on. So Dream on.. Keep on Blogging.

Are you concerned about sleeping too much or not having a regular sleeping schedule? If you aren’t earning enough money from your blog to quit your day job and you want to keep on blogging then you desperately need time. Since there is no boss in the world to let you decrease working hours, people usually decrease sleeping hours. Is it possible to sleep 5-6 hours a day without turning in to a walking zombie??

If you have sleep related problems; you sleep to much, you can’t get a regular sleeping schedule and you don’t have the hope that you can live with less sleep; believe me YOU CAN. I am a live subject of transition from disordered sleep to a regular sleeping schedule with 5-6 hours of sleep a day. While I was student (good old days), I usually slept 10 hours a day and some days with no sleep some days with all day sleep, I was like a statue of sleep disorder. My awake hours of day always shifted. For a week I was awake during day time another week I was awake during night time. I didn’t believe that I could change this.

Sometimes you have to go the hard way. My days of slumbering have ended when the called me for military service. (It is mandatory in my country) Believe me when you wear the green uniform and boots you can’t say “moom i wanna sleep five minutes more.” For the first month I was going to bed at 10 p.m. (after a whole day of walking and exercise) and they woke us up at 4 a.m. (Every time it was like a nightmare) After getting used to sleeping 6 hours with working out whole day, at weekends an 8 hours sleep was like a gift to us. It was a good experience to see that my body is capable of living with 5-6 hours of sleep. The problem is you can do training, run, duck, shoot and other physical stuff while you are sleepy. You don’t have to use your brain too much when you are a soldier.

The things are a little different while working. When I started working I tried to get used to sleeping less hours like i did in the military but I was sitting sleepy all the day yawning and unable to focus on my work. One day I saw about a vitamin mixture that overcomes chronic fatigue. I am prejudiced about medicines actually. I try to avoid medicine as much as I can to keep my immune system up. So I made a research about this pill Pharmaton; it is mostly and vitamins (which is okay to take with pills because we can’t synthesize them in our body) and Ginseng extract. At first I taught that it was one of the killer “Lose Weight” drugs. When I made a research I saw that it is a Chinese herb (okay Chinese but not killer:) widely used and have no significant side effects.

I started taking the vitamins. At the end of first week I could feel that I wasn’t sleepy anymore and I could concentrate on my work. I can say that I could even get up more easily. (Even I got used to sleeping less waking up is always a torture) Maybe this is placebo effects playing tricks on me but I am happy with the results. I only take them on week days (I still like to reward myself with a good sleep at weekends). Even not mentioned I have to note one side effect. You get nausea until mid day (Especially if you didn’t have a good breakfast). I have the stomach of a bear and I can eat every kind of meat, vegetables, oil, sugar ,etc.. without any problem I don’t have a sensitive stomach but I get nausea with those pills. So be cautious if you are not a bear

Anyways with or without pills it is possible to arrange a better sleeping schedule to your self (Without the pills you need military discipline). The joy of staying in the bed is better than anything but if you need the time for your work, blog, friends, family then “Welcome to Hell”.
