Minimum motivation

I've been employed in the same company for 1,5 years now plus my practice period.
So.. all in all about two years.
My work load has grown.
So has my knowledge.
I'm barely doing anything that relates to what I've studied for.
My only motivation each and every morning for going to work is my monthly paycheck.
I'm trying really hard to figure out what is the asset or bonus in learning things that are as interesting to me as a bullet to my head.

The problem is that I'm not sure what would be suitable job for me.
Although, I think I'd be happier shoveling shit in a pig house than what I am with my current position.
When I was 13 years old, I said I'd like to work in advertising business as art director or copywriter.
Now, I think my dream job would be something where I can do things with my hands.
Carpenter. Painter. Writer. Car mechanic. Something.
Something that doesn't require me sitting 8 hours a day in an office. With engineers.
Something that allows me to use my creativity.
Something with less stress, with more attractiveness.
Something with less straining working hours.

Likes, yikes!

Since my pageviews reached 12 000 this week, I thought I'll give you a chance for a little gift.

So be brave and leave a comment:
tell me about something that you like (colors, books, animals, cartoons, fashion style etc.).
Then just add your contact information ([nick]name, e-mail or blog link) and you might win a coin purse made just for you.

The lottery ends on Friday 31st of October 2014 and I'll pick up the winner on the 1st of November.

Sick and twisted

Soooo.. this week didn't go as planned. I'm on a sick leave the whole week since my lower back resigned. I got a lumbago, to be exact. I was preparing to work on Monday morning when my lower back just snapped. I walked worse than Ozzy Osbourne. Fortunately I got some medication for it and hot water bottle and hot gel have also been very helpful. Just have to say that now I understand old people in traffic a bit better, crossing a road can take a while.. But at least now I have plenty of time to listen to music. ;)

Music month

In October my goal is to listen an album a day. And more than that, albums I haven't heard before. Spotify and Youtube are providing me enough suggestions to take this through. At the end of a month I'll make a top 10 (or more) list of the albums I've listened.

Here's some suggestions I've got to my email that I plan to listen:

Illdisposed - With the Lost Souls on Our Side

In Mourning - The Weight of Oceans

Carnal Forge - Testify For My Victims

The Crown - Doomsday King

The Haunted - Exit Wounds

Adrenaline Mob - Men of Honor

Exodus - Blood In Blood Out
