to narnia or not

June 11, 2005

as an update on my indecisiveness and reluctance to leave this lovely bubble that is summer holidays, i’ve decided to postpone narnia for another little while. several factors were involved in this decision:

1) practicality. it’s good to be earning a regular paycheque.

2) new developments at work. a colleague called me at home to let me know yesterday. this means a better situation for me when i get back.

3) potential for negotiation. i’m trying to learn how to be less “all or nothing” and more “let’s see what we can work out”.

4) a realisation that if i stayed home now, i would probably end up surfing the internet and doing laundry all day, especially if i didn’t have a concrete goal or plan to work towards. doing this would probably make me feel unproductive, then worthless and depressed. i don’t need that.

so, two more days then back into the rat race. how much zen can one possibly fit into two days? i’m not sure, but i think it is correlated with the amount of watercolour painting and flower arranging done in those days.
