Alas the mind is ever a torturous entity, forever plaguing us with thoughts and feelings beyond our control. When we are happy, it conjures worries and concerns. When we are content, it finds temptation and strife. It is sadomasochistic in it's endeavours to forever complex life, for it is never truly happen but when unhappy.
A paradox in itself, thus the brain has accomplished its goal.

I don't know if I'm just not a winter person at all, but I'm have difficulty getting up each morning. My whole grand plan of waking up at 6:30am each day to go to the gym before work is failing miserably because no matter what time I go to sleep the night before, I just can't fight this overwhelming tiredness in the morning which forces me back unconscious.
I then spend the whole day feeling tired and lethargic, as if all my energy were drained from me in the night. I take vitamins and such but to no such avail. Perhaps I should consult a doctor, only I feel slightly as though I'd be wasting their time...."So, I'm like, really sleepy..."
I used to try going to the gym after work but that idea was pointless, I'd finish work at 6pm and I would be tired and hungry, all I wanted to do was come home and enjoy what little evening I had left.
I think the other problem is I need a job that doesn't take up so much of my time, earning a living is one thing but when I don't have the time to actually enjoy living, well that's an issue that needs resolved.

Work is seriously depressing the hell out of me.
We’re horribly under staffed and painfully over worked.
Our workload is never ending and all our bosses can do is tell us we’re not doing good enough.
We’re offered no incentives, no pay rise for the extra work, no extra staff to help cope with the insane amount of work. Barely even a thanks for what we have done.
To top it all off I get treated like dirt, there’s favouritism abound in the office - I get snapped at for the exact same things someone else does more often, for instance texting on my phone then five minutes later that other person sits texting to and fro constantly, the phone unavoidably loud and obvious, yet nothing is said to them at all...and they are given preferential treatment, often being allowed to leave early and such.
Each day I find it harder to get up and go in. I just want to walk out so badly but I need the money.
It’s almost enough to make me pray for a miracle, a Lotto win or a better job offer….shame I’m not a religious person. But if there was some sort of higher power controlling things, I think I’d paid my dues by now, so how about it buddy?

This year I plan to be far more creative. I've already got the beginnings of a novel, albeit a fairly simple one...but then Harry Potter was no Dostoevsky...and I have a short, found footage horror I plan on filming one weekend.
I also have my web series to work on, though it did receive a bit of criticism it was mostly met with praise. The feedback - negative and positive - is being used to improve the flaws both technical and content wise. We're going to make it look as professional as possible, and while you can't please everyone we're going to at least try. A lot of the time you don't realise how something will be perceived by others until they throw a hissy fit over it.
I also started up a little side project offering digital design work for posters/advertisements of short films and the like, I have to say I'm rather proud of my logo;
Spent nearly four hours on it. The rest of my work for that can be found here
And to get the creative juices flowing I made a tiny little short for fun;
Here's to a productive year!
