It kinda feels weird when your frustration turns into a hobby...

you never thought you'd be doing something you've always wanted to try out, but rarely got the chance to...and ACTUALLY enjoy it...

it started with a frustration back in high school, and recently revived because of a few reasons i'm not willing to talk about...


~when you hear music with a good beat, ever had that strong nagging feeling to move with it?~


i recently got into dancing(hip hop & pop)...its something of a frustration for me, since back in high school, i was such a nerd AND a geek. always in the library, non-athletic, loner, few friends..

wikipedia defines these both as:

GEEK= A person with a devotion to something in a way that places him or her outside the mainstream. This could be due to the intensity, depth, or subject of their interest. This definition is very broad but because many of these interests have mainstream endorsement and acceptance, the inclusion of some genres as "geeky" is heavily debated. Persons have been labeled as or chosen to identify as mathematics geeks, engineering geeks, sci-fi geeks, computer geeks, various science geeks, movie and film geeks (cinephile), comic book geeks, Rush geeks, theatre geeks, history geeks, gamer geeks, music geeks, art geeks, philosophy geeks, literature geeks, and roleplay geeks.


NERD= is a term often bearing a derogatory connotation or stereotype, that refers to a person who passionately pursues intellectual activities, esoteric knowledge, or other obscure interests that are age inappropriate rather than engaging in more social or popular activities. Therefore, a nerd is often excluded from physical activity and considered a loner by peers.


i must've gotten this strong urge to move because of the VERY LONG AND BORING post-surgery recovery period; where i'm not allowed to run, lift heavy things and do sports..just lie around, not doing much..THAT got me SO bored, i started doing handstands and pull ups again only 3 weeks after surgery; and i'm taking extra care in doing these, so as not to tear my stitched abdominals..(although i think i overstretched them a bit last night while on a handstand)

..i remember IROH from the cartoon/anime avatar:the last airbender season 3; where he was captured as a prisoner of war and he was caged as a rat, with little space and all..then he started doing pull ups, sit ups, push ups, the works. he kept his body fit as to prepare himself for his inevitable escape...


some of my other hobbies also came from frustrations, like martial arts and playing the violin...im also a frustrated pianist, so i practice with our keyboards at home when i have time...

~subplot~life is full of ironies..we end up liking stuff that are opposite our personalities..we set standards for ourselves and we end up with what we didn't expect. only sometimes it's hard when we realize what we really want only too late....we can only try our best to get so far(or near enough)....i also remember a friend told me once; "what you want, you don't get. what you get, you don't enjoy. what you enjoy is not permanent. whats permanent becomes boring."

Anyways..enough of that personal rant...


So i got into this new thing, not sure for how long, but i'm gonna enjoy it while it's here, and while i'm still young...i mean i can't do a slide, pump or a spin when im old right?
