These past few weeks have been tough. I took my qualifying exam. I didn’t feel so good after it and pretty soon (no more than two weeks) I should get my results. Then of course there’s more things to add to the mix, but I won’t go in to them here.
I’m counting on Cafe Tacuba tomorrow night and ice skating on Friday to cheer me up.
La pregunta: How do you battle the blues?
I get on my turntables and do a mix to fight the blues.
Music can save your life!
I also:
Rent good movies,
Eat great food,
Ride my bike through skid row and see that I got it better no matter what,
Hang out with cheery, happy people!
I make music and go party!!!!
I read stuff that I enjoy, go to the movies a lot, talk to my friends, listen to music, and of course write.
I hope you feel better soon.
Usually with shopping, but even that lately has seen sort of eh. I find that I’ve been sleeping A LOT…but really, that’s not combating anything…Oh well..One more week or so of school, then I can start dealing with things.
Liqour and General Tso’s chicken of course!
I usually sit in bed and watch TV until I’m bored with being down. And then I sit in bed and watch TY but I enjoy it more.
I repeat the mantra “at least I’m not dead” which is usually quite effective.
music. as much as possible.
and friends- leaving the house is key.
alcohol is great in a pinch.
I do it the old fashioned way, lots and lots of alcohol!
Nah, I usually just try and keep busy. School, work, and especially surrounding myself with friends have worked for me.
Liquor and Tso’s
watch trash tv . . . makes u feel better
When I’m motivated I go to the gym….but usually I just succumb to a glass of wine…okay two.
i take inventory of my blessings.
My cure for the blues varies according to the severity of said blues. If it’s fairly mild, vodka, food with absolutely no nutritional value, and a little Guitar Hero and/or rocking out to silly 80s songs does the trick. If it’s approaching deep depression, fleeing the country or feeding the adrenaline junkie beast helps.
Battle the blues? What kinda Mexican are you? It’s all about the wallowing. Why do you think Tequila was invented?
depends on what kind of blues
travel, music & sun
or
te, veladora de la virgen de Guadalupe, y mi familia
or
a hybrid of the above gets me out of my funk also…
My accupuncturist told me today to massage the crown around your head area, and it worked!
