Life isn’t always a bed of roses, it isn’t always peaches and cream. Even the most optimistic kid in the block feels down, beaten, and blue sometimes.
But less-than-cheery days just like it-so-sunny-nothing-can-dampen-my-spirit days are also a fact of life, right?
Just like the sucky Manila weather of the past days, I have not been in my best state of mind, health, and mood. So after two nights of tossing and turning, and missing out on precious sleep, and the nasty head and eye ache, I decided to help myself get out of a rut.
Here are some of my pick-me-uppers, in no particular order.
~ Color my nails happy
~ Down a fruit shake or something cold {ice cream or halo-halo works too}
~ Connect with a family member {usually mom} or a close friend
~ Shut off my thoughts with happy, inspiring music {see Stuck on Repeat}
How about you? What do you do when you’re feeling sad and blue? 
Sound off and share your thoughts below. Virtual hugs are most welcome, too.
I’m very pessimistic and one negative/sad thought snowballs easily, but if I can I’d take a long walk. Doesn’t matter where(under big trees is nice), it usually does the trick. Or….

Yes, nail painting counts!
I love ice cream and shakes as well, but espresso is usually my go-to beverage for a pick-me-up! :) I wanted to let you know that I nominated you for the “One Lovely Blog” Award! You can check it out at http://oliviarslama.wordpress.com/2012/07/10/lovely/

The weather in Manila is also bringing me down, what with the previous rainy disaster (not to mention the approaching typhoon). Stay safe! :)
