Why You Can't Afford to Be Lazy

You can't really afford to be lazy, not even one second of our life but we do it anyway, right? Guilty right here *raises hand up*

Ok but first, let me just say this, its been almost a year since my last post and a lot of things happened. Well it has been a year... Lol and the presence of social medias led to people letting things out there instead of typing it all away here but why not? People are still blogging you know. && deep down i still have my soft spot for my blog right here. But so far so good alhamdulillah I am done with my masters, ready to jump in the working life bandwagon anytime soon! Hehe but yes since i have some free time here, and having these free time makes me realise that you don't actually have any time at all... because there's just so much things to doooooo so ok let me start.

As i was saying, we as humans can't afford to be lazy. Especially if you're a girl. Well that doesn't mean that if you're a guy you can be lazy, just that you can be a bit lazier than us girls. Why, you ask? Bcs we apparently have dozens more things to do than you! hahaha i sound a bit feminist there but okay okay maybe i don't really know the world of guys and their fantasy football. But here's some of the reasons why we need to be up on our feet almost 24 hours in our day (both men and women okay);

1) wake up: shower and for most of us its at the crack of dawn when we're just about to enter the sweet sweet world of dreams, sigh... another day in paradise! Off to work. before that, BREAKFAST! no breakfast for the lazy people! and its so easy to get carried away and just grabbing the nasi lemak when you're supposed to be watching your calories... ehem. Which is still nonexistent if you're lazy to go out and search for the nasi lemak but please, don't skip your breakfast. Have at least a banana. Your body will thank you. Don't get me started on the getting ready time. We girls take forever to get ready. For some girls who are confident enough to go out without makeup, I salute you *claps*. But for us other girls, we need the extra time to prep ourselves, iron our clothes, make sure that it is matching with the rest of our attire and it takes a lot of energy and you definitely cannot be lazy to look nice. Hello, you keep looking at all those girls and celebrities on Instagram and be like "aww they're so pretty" so why can't you just spend some extra minutes on yourself so that you can look as pretty as them too? Well for guys, you just have your hair. BUT I know some guys who take way longer than they should on their hair hahaha well if it makes you look good so what

2) if you're among the fortunate and don't have a 9 to 5 job, well you can have a few extra minutes of sleep and then you gotta be up as well because who will prepare breakfast for the rest of your family? IT'S YOU! especially if you're married with kids. You will definitely have to wake up early and prepare the kids. They need a lot of your time. Man, having kids is no joke. But nothing beats #momlife am i right? lol if you're not a mom probably have to send your sisters and brothers to school or prepare breakfast for your parents and sibs who are working haha exhibit A right here (but i can go to sleep afterwards so yay me)

Moving on after breakfast, 3) Preparing for lunch. Fortunately nowadays, healthy food are easy to come by. There are lots of food deliveries out there that can bring you food straight to your work, so we can afford to be a bit lazy there, but if you think about it, we can't be lazy, thats why we have food delivered. If not we will probably go out and eat somewhere. Your job is too important or too busy to leave during lunch. But you obviously need to take a break and go pray and this is where it gets hard. Remember all your makeup that you put on this morning? Yes its coming off and you don't wanna look like a zombie after you pray so girl you gotta put it back on. Yes. So much effort. No time to be lazy here.

For the moms with kids, maybe you have a bit of time here where the kids will take a nap but that is when you can clean the house. You do not want to live in a house so dirty and dusty but you can't afford to hire a maid all the time! So chop chop, go and get the vacuum. And although you can say that it only takes like what 20-30 minutes (for one area of your house) but it is YOUR HOUSE. Obviously you want it clean so if you're the OCD type, you will definitely take more time than that. My mum always say do not do your work like a housemaid. What she means is, although the housemaids job is to clean the house, thats not her house. So she probably won't clean it as best as she could you know. Do you get what I mean? 

4) After work: dinner... and maybe exercise. This is the hard part. We can easily eat non-stop but when it comes to exercising, ugh. Y SO LAZY. But quoting Kendal Jenner in her 73 Questions interview, "this body doesn't do itself" so you need to move your lazy ass to the gym and work out.  If not, do it first thing when you get home. For the super goers, you can try waking up early to get a fresh start for your day! Atleast 30 minutes. Again, your body will thank you. I know its easier said than done, and i myself have problems sticking to my workout routine, but once you see results, you'll be thankful you ain't lazy. 

5) Finally home. Nope, you can't sleep yet. I know you feel like your every is hitting zero, and fast. Trust me , i've been there. MOVE YOUR LAZY ASS BODY. You need to remove your clothes and go shower. After all the work and exercise, you wanna sleep in that condition? Please don't. You will feel worse tomorrow so you need to shower and then do the laundry, and then if you're cooking at home, do the dishes, wipe the hob, and finally almost there, you have to clean up your face and brush your teeth and and floss it and be pretty so that you will look presentable for your husband at night LOL ok not really for him but you get the idea right? I mean who has all that time? sometimes i can barely take off my jeans and i'll be all Zzz already hahaha Not forgetting the Korean skin care regime for your face. 10. freaking. steps. I mean WOW no wonder their face are so flawless and pretty oh well a girl's gotta do what a girl's gotta do 

think about it. being a girl, you have to take care of your body, your hair (even with hijab ok you need to look good for yourself, husband is optional :p), your face, your nails, your attire, your smell && everything including how you speak eat talk hahahahahaha but its super fun being a girl, you get to dress up and act girly teehee

PHEW

BUT THATS NOT ALL. these are just basics if you are living a normal life. Well, face it none of us are normal. Cause we got loads of other stuff to do. Like blogging, or some of you who read, or bake or do some extra odd jobs so you need to fill that extra hours with work too! And yes cleaning up the toilet as you go, throwing out the trash, piling up the clean dishes from yesterday, hanging up the clothes when its ready from the machine, preparing breakfast for tomorrow (so you finally can have something to eat in the morning), folding clothes from yesterday, planning what to wear tomorrow, buying groceries, paying the bills... and the list goes on and on and on. Not to mention if you have a big event coming up like a birthday party, a bachelorette party, an engagement, a wedding, you need to find time to plan all those! And your calendar, you need to get it sorted, make sure you get the dates right, whether or not you tally with your partner/spouse, keeping up with all the non work related unread emails. Man it's hard to be human. 

Enough ranting for now because i know by now you definitely get what i mean, right? Being unemployed for the time being gives me a whole new meaning of time. Once i start working, i know i will not have this much time anymore. So there will be extra pressure to do things i used to do when everybody else is working during the limited time that everybody else also have. Wait, i think the last sentence doesn't really make sense hmm

And blogger seriously need some emoji love right about now. I feel so lifeless typing without emoji lol ok bye now

pls pray that alhana gets a job soon thank you
