not having time to yourself

[krisamata]

im sssssssssooooooooo craving it lately.
i just need to be by myself....it doesnt matter if it's just at home, or a little ways away from here.

theres too much happening around me right now. and i need to get some stuff under control.

and i just cant do it with people constantly around me.

i wanna run away for a couple of days.


anyone know of any good spots to go to get away...somewhere that wont take me days to drive to and wont cost a bundle

go to victoria? take the bus or something. It's not too far. I've only ben there once in my life but it appears that there are some things to do. Seeing that there have been so many beautiful days these days you should just pack a lunch and give it a go.

You can even just go take a walk around the sea wall or something. Bring along a nice book and sit under the shade, treat yourself to some icecream and chillax :)

I know what you mean about time to yourself. When I get home from work I just sit on the comp and listen to music. That's my version of time to myself, without it i'd go crazy.

^^^ya same.
i was hoping to get a month of that to myself when my parents go away, but my brother just moved back in, and we're so not getting along.

oh i know what you mean. :P thankfully my parents will be in europe for 3 weeks and my sister will be in france so I'll have the whole house to myself. YEEHAW

take a day off work or something and plan a day around yourself :)

mental rehab time is needed. most people aren't aware of how important it is. turn off the celly, unplug the house phone, find a good book and have some quatility karismata time.

i swear man, going to victoria is one of the most therapeutic things you can do for yourself. especially if you go by yourself. the ferry ride itself is enough to re-energize your inner self for a while. then if you head downtown, get adventurous, try new things, you'll feel like you're expanding yourself personally, and it's just the best thing you can do for yourself...

even if it's just a day trip... don't go nuts on the planning, just plan the time and place ahead of time, get up really early in the morning and just fucking go! don't let anything stop you.

that's what alone time is all about. not letting anything stop you from doing what you want.

time to yourself is key to being sane......thats one thing i love about driving, you can just take yourself to the middle of nowhere and smoke a blunt and relax or gas yourself to death with a hose from the exhuast
