The internet is eating my life!

Saturday i took a whole day off from the internet. It was awesome.
I'm on the internet so much, sometimes i feel like my eyes are going to pop out and afterwards i'm just quite confused and exhausted.

Slightly confused..

Everything is on the internet, my business, my friends, entertainment, education.. Watching movies, i even do that on the computer.

Sometimes i wish life would be more simpler, in every way. But i suppose you have to make it.


This is me after a whole day and night on the internet, i'm just not quite this happy.

When i'm not on the internet and i have a day off, those are the things i like doing,

going for a walk
reading classic, old English novels, i just rediscovered that
going to the library, same, i just rediscovered that too, i always loved libraries
baking, gotta do more of that
cleaning and tidying, yeah, i DON'T really like it, but i like the result
loitering about in the city, going out for breakfast
going for random drives
ah yeah and the beach, the beach is great.

This is me after a whole night on the internet. Check out my EYES!!

We actually went to the beach on Saturday, but it was fuck windy. Which means you are basically getting attacked by a sand storm and if you don't move for like 3 hrs i'm sure you would just disappear.

My eyes, my eyes, my brain is exploding! So many things to focus on!

So those are some of the things i like to do on a lazy internet free weekend. What are yours?

THINGS I USED TO DO

(dragons)
Years ago i used to draw. I was quite obsessed with my own world and expressing it through pictures and photographs and i loved watching movies, still do.

(giraffe)
I have rather fond memories of it and when i come across my old markers and pictures i sometimes regret that i stopped doing it, most of my pictures i did 8-9 years ago. Sitting in my cold Berlin flat by myself.

Just being obsessed with cute things, things with eyes. I didn't take any drugs either, i just like colours. And i liked the texture of certain papers and the weight of it.

(teddy bear)
Now i sew. I like the more tactile aspect of working with fabric, it's not just visual. I like that fabric is more sturdy and that you can get it wet and it gets back into shape again.
Not that I've ever gotten my pictures wet.

What things did you like to do that you are no longer doing? Do you resent them or think of them rather fondly? Why have you moved on?
