It's another new month and starting my post with the weekend challenge post by @Galenkp. What a good way to start the month of July as all options are just too simple and interesting. This would be my entry to the We108 weekend engagement concept
Weekend of solitude
As an introvert, I need some time to myself, but it doesn't necessarily mean I should hole up in isolation 24/7. I engage in all of these I would be mentioning soon, and they are much fun, but on a weekend like this, it will be more fun especially if I decide not to be online blogging for a living.
What do I enjoy doing when I have time to myself?
I do ask myself this question and I end up having many options. So for this weekend, for me not to be bored and for activities to be super energetic for an introvert like me, these are what I have planned to do for my enjoyment.
Is there anything better than books? I don't think so!
Just like the quote above, I was inspired to form that when I read books. When I read books, it makes me feel alive and good.
If you must know, reading is a favourite activity among introverts. There exist so many books and it's beautifully overwhelming to think about. You can read books about history, romance, science, culture, fantasy..... So endless books out there!
I have started learning Spanish for a month now, and I can say it has been overwhelming seeing interesting words to be translated into another language. I don't have anywhere to go other than staying glued to my phone and pronouncing those Spanish words. Day by day, though I make mistakes, but not to be compared to when I first started when everything seems to be difficult.
Learning language can allow you to understand and interact with people. Even if you cannot communicate back, it feels good listening to another person speaking what you have learnt for years. It makes you know more people easily too and it's a great opportunity for you, having another language aside from your native language.
I started this three weeks ago as I also want to have this skill. Since I started learning this skill online, it has taken much of my time online but I still find a way to manoeuvre through my daily activities. Seriously, it isn't easy and I would give kudos to those who are masters already.
I told my sister three weeks ago about it and she was happy because this is something she has screamed and shouted we should get doing for the future but I never had time for it. Now, I am taking this serious and even started a free course on Udacity.com
Learning Website development takes independent focus and full concentration which introverts are great at. It is great working on a computer at home and as a bonus, website development is a useful hobby for someone and can even make a good career choice.
Since I started this weeks ago, it has allowed me to play my strength by using intense focus, thinking through different possibilities and creative problem-solving skills.
Whether for a challenge or a short story, writing is writing as long as I enjoy doing that. Things that makes us stronger writers are our perceptions, introspections and ability to think thoroughly. My words have a way of coming out in writing and it takes being quiet and solitude for me to get in the writing zone.
I so much love writing because I can get drowned into my thoughts and then watch as they appear on paper. It is always an excitement for me to journal about my life, creating a fictional character, and making up stories. If you ask me “if writing fiction is one of the absolute best pastimes?” I would say Yes, it is.
I love daydreaming about anything; the future, marriage, great career, a successful life etc.
My daydreams are always filled with amazing content. When we are daydreaming, it allows us to engage with our thoughts and our inner nature. Daydreaming is a great activity one can engage in to help strengthen your creativity, help build your problem-solving skills, and also help fight stress.
It has been my hobby to try something new once a week because I love to try new recipes that I watched online. I even prepared one this week, and it's the first time trying and after watching it on YouTube, I love the turn out.
Trying a new recipe is great fun as you can't wait to see how it would taste.
Thanks for reading
