Saturday "AANI" day

For some reason i'm so stressed out just waiting for the home stretch of our shift to be done and over with. I don't necessarily want to go home yet it's just that being on the same place for more than 5 hours makes me uncomfortable, unless ofcourse i'm sleeping or i'm doing something nonstop that is...well pleasurable.

Every one of us have their own distressing places. mine used to be the bus then the mrt when it was not yet jam packed all the time. and quite recently i found myself di-stressing inside groceries. May it be at Landmark or SM it doesn't matter. As long as it's cool and i'm surrounded by food. They say that eating good food calms you but for me just the mere sight of it is ok, well i don't mind eating them of course. I'm guessing with all the cooking shows I watched on AFC it made my brain on auto pilot mode to head to the nearest groceries when i'm stressed out rather than get drunk and be stupid. I still drink but not to that point anymore. You can say that when I met my wife to be she made me "domesticated". Spending hours of my time inside the groceries well somehow cheers me up especially when she (wifey) is with me. We could just go on and walk around there talking about our week and work and trip and stuff instead of just bumming at a cafe. Besides we're walking so it's good for our health and plus no pollution. Maybe this therapy of mine started when I was courting my girl. Well we did met at a market where she used to be one of the bosses there before, so as much as I would like to get her out of there for mall strolls she wasn't allowed because she has to oversee the business during those hours. It is somewhat a relief and something new that I get to spend hours of my time with her in that market. We were able to talk about a lot of things and got to know each other pretty well. Not before long we became a couple. So I guess I owe that much from that market so every Saturday I make it a point that I wake up early and go to that place with her reminiscing of the old days when I was courting her and mingling with the people who are also neighbors who are patrons there. You can say that it is my sign of tribute to the place where i met my better half.

So if you're feeling stressed out? Try going to your nearest grocery or market place (dry) to stroll around and talk to people. You don't necessarily have to buy anything but what you'll get is even much better than what you bargained for.

Cheers!
