Surfing galore

I am in that phase again…

I am senselessly surfing the net again every chance I get. No destination (except for my blogs and websites), no keyword in mind, I just let my fingers type in a word in the search box and I randomly click on a link.

Even at work, when there is a topic to be researched on, there will always be another window open for a topic diversion. I also find myself going inside sites and forums (which I am a member) I haven’t been in for months, even years! I find myself browsing through long-visited threads, delving into information I am not usually interested in, downloading stuff I wouldn’t think of having years back.

And again making sites after so long being asleep I almost forgot how to use Photoshop. XD I’m currently doing my online portfolio in wordpress and I got hyped using graphic editing tools, filters and what – nots. I find myself brainstorming on new sites with Licorne for the expansion of our websites. I find myself delving into hidden treasures for ebooks and money opportunities online.

I am in a hype for reading and knowledge, and downloads and expansion.

I don’t get myself.

Is this what they meant of procastination working at its best? Letting the mind wander until it unconsciously forms an idea to work upon? They did say this works very well with creative people. When the juices dry out, they tend to relax and sit back until inspiration strikes them. I don’t claim to be overly creative, as I have seemed to develop a certain objectiveness, probably from working under the business or marketing department of an ad agency. I have to be honest with myself though that I am missing the creative work I had initially as a mobile designer. I miss the tools, the colors, the design work.

I get the part of creating my online portfolio since it is an archive of sorts of what I have done in my working life. I get the part of expanding our sites to generate extra income and at the same time involve ourselves more with our online friends and communities. My diversion of research is probably from having too much interest at the same time I need to learn how to prioritize. I really don’t know anymore.

I guess I am too much in a hype.

Yet, I’m liking it.
