Give yourself a break from your humdrum routine and quit something. You’ve already got the brutally painful New York weather kicking your ass, so quit something and feel invigorated! Our parents always told us not to quit, but let's be honest, there was always that little part of you that wanted to rebel and quit something, so here's your chance. Let’s make a list of all the things you could quit:
- The obvious, Facebook.
- Twitter
- The Gym (if Chandler can do it, so can you)
- Your Job (or just look for a new one while you complain about the current one)
- Smoking (two words, "ya nasty")
- The boring book you're reading (try Loving Frank, thanks Linds, loving it)
- Shopping (addictive but pricey, become an Economista)
- Eating out so much, try cooking!
- The Relationship you’re staying in just so you don’t have to be alone
- Your addiction to gossip sites, magazines, etc. (it's unhealthy and kind of creepy, I should know)
In the time that I would have spent mindlessly pursuing Facebook, I instead read three books, learned how to make home-made pizza, ate a ton of red olives (not entirely a positive thing, but they were soooo delicious), wrote some blog entries and applied for jobs. I of course still browsed my usual sites, Shopbop, IMDB, and Craig's List, but hey, it’s a start.
If you don’t want to quit anything than just quit the “act.” You don’t need to post something on Facebook for the sole reason of getting people’s attention. Do something for you and you’ll be much more satisfied. Happy Friday and have a fabulous weekend!!
