Out of Balance

What is wrong?
Right now.
Something is wrong right now in my life and I need to fix it. 
What do I do all day?
Without School
1. Watch Doctor Who
is that bad? No I just do it waaaaaay to much
2.  Get on the computer and check Facebook, Tumblr, Deviantart, e-mail, Pinterest, anything else I can think of... Just to waste time
Is that bad? No, I just do it waaaaaaaaaay to much!
3. Watch something else
Is that bad? Yeah, wasting time.
4. Go to friends houses and watch more tv there
l-a-m-e
5. go to friends houses and sit and talk
great sometimes, but when that and tv is all we do? No thanks.

So I need a change.
What is that change?
Change
1. give myself a limit on Doctor Who
Fine I can do that, and I can have exceptions but only with friends and only if I have followed my rules
2. Keep track of each time I get on the internet
How long I am on, and What I do while I am on for an entire week
3. with family, it's fine, friends it's fine. 
More than 4 hours a day? Probably not
4. go to a friends house to DO something. 
Party with a movie, just a party, going out to do something, staying in to do something. anything!
5. make a list of things to do. 
Do them
ok. 
I have some changes. Now I just need to do them.
Implement them.
I can do that.

Serve
Pretty sure that is the best thing I can do.
When I go to friends houses, offer to do things for them or with them to make their lives better
When I am at home do more things for my family that wouldn't normally get done.
When I am by myself, think about someone else. Make them something to make them happy.
What would Jesus Do?
He would Serve people.
He would help them to become better by setting an example.
I don't know how to do that very well but I can certainly try.
I can try
I can do 
I can be better

Art
I want to do it.
I want to be an artist.
I want to animate a superhero cartoon, preferably with the Flash.
I want to illustrate a children's book.
I want to help people see the world better.
How can I do that with just art?
 How can I do that?

Family
I need to have better relationships with my family.
My brothers need me to be here for them
I am not right now
I need a job so I can get money to treat them
I don't have to have money to treat them
 can be a kind, fun sister without that
I want the be the sister that they grow up and still call because they miss her.
The kind that they hang out with during high school and don't care what other people think.

"I can do Anything better than you can!"

Television is eating my world.

I don't do anything. 
I watch TV and think about watching it and go to watch it and watch with friends. 
I am a becoming a very lazy person, a proactive lazy person.
I plan out my lazyness.

I need to be proactive in not being lazy. Doing things that really matter. 
Making quality things. 
Doing quality things.
Becoming the person I know I can be.
The only problem is.... I have to do it.
And I can.
Tomorrow is Christmas. 
Rather than sit around all day I am going to do something. 
Run.
Draw.
Make cookies.
Do something nice for someone else.
Learn something new.
Clean something.
I'll try it all!

"I've Heard it Both Ways"

I would very much enjoy owning this. My friend the 11th doctor has one! he got it for Christmas! SUPER amazing!
Oh and just so you know Setting 96 sends holograms to other places so people don't get scared when watching scary Doctor Who episodes!
Finished Psych.
Now catching up with Doctor Who so I can watch the Christmas special with My friends Doctors 10, 11, and 12!
I love Doctor Who!

"Totally Awesome!"

Here is how talking to old friends makes me feel:
And this is the second time!
Actually on Black Friday I ran into a guy I knew from High School. Weird! Especially since I moves 5hours away from where I went to high school!
I am fairly certain I need to find somewhere to dance down here! Not sure where, not sure with who. But somewhere!

"It's a Wonderful Life"

I am fairly certain I don't deserve my wonderful friends!
And my family? I must have done something AMAZING in the pre-existence to deserve having them as my family!
My life is so blessed, so wonderful!
I shouldn't even want to ask for more!
Yet I need more. I do need some things. 
I would like to think that I won't need things later, but I will.
Yet God, in his infinite mercy will give me everything I need when I ask in faith.
When I need something, I need to do is ask him.
Just ask.
“Trust in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths.” Proverbs 3:5–6.
when I think of that, How can I not shout for joy?

"Can I let the Trees do the Talking?"


Please excuse me, I'm not thinking clear

It must just be stress

But I likely shouldn't be here, I'm such a mess



I never really ever know what to say

When all of my emotions get in the way
I'm just trying to get us on the same page (Wish I could explain)



I always get it better right afterward

When all the wrong impressions are said and heard
How come I can never get the right words, I need to convey
Wish I could explain The things that I have to work out



I don't feel right

What has come over me, I'm about
To lose my mind



I never really ever know what to say

When all of my emotions get in the way
I'm just trying to get us on the same page (Wish I could explain)



I always get it better right afterward

When all the wrong impressions are said and heard
How come I can never get the right words, I need to convey
Wish I could explain



Can I let the trees do the talking

Can I let the ground do the walking
Can I let the sky fill what's missing
Can I let my mouth do the listening, the listening



I never really ever know what to say

When all of my emotions get in the way

I'm just trying to get us on the same page



I always get it better right afterward

When all the wrong impressions are said and heard
How come I can never get the right words, I need to convey
Wish I could explain
What I mean to say

"Well... That went well."

this is how I am feeling lately
e-m-b-a-r-a-s-s-e-d
It seems that I am not very good at handling my relationships with males
If they are friends, I think I am just fine
But anything more?
I just come apart.
Pretty sure I need to work on that...
Well, maybe if I just pretend I have done nothing wrong it will all work itself out
maybe...
Perhaps not. Pretty sure I just want a friend right now. Just a friend

"Keep Moving Forward"

Papers, Texts, Thor, FF XIII, Drawings, Cleaning, Checks, Money, Job, Friends, Boys, Brothers, Family, Phone Calls, X-Men, Lights, Guitar, Justin Beiber, Cell Phone, Roses, Feelings, Freak Out, Guilt, Clam, Institute, Conference, Procrastination, Computer, Art Paper, Music, COLD, Socks, Coat, Sweater, Temple, Math, Airplane, Credits = Balance

Yeah, makes no sense. I know. 
But this is what happens in life. Everything happens all at once and it is.. WONDERFUL!
I don't know how much better it can get. I know it can get better, It has been proved once before!
With General Conference!
Now I am so happy, yet I still have to write a paper... and I am procrastinating!
Yesterday one of my best friends down here motivated me to run with words from my favorite show!
"Keep moving forward. You've got two good legs. So get up and use them. You're strong enough to make your own path."
Oh my goodness! Now I have to put more FMAB on here just because I found some amazing ones!


I know, that is probably WAY to much awesomeness for one post.... I'll have to limit myself next time!

"Whelmed"

I need money.
I need a job.
I need to pay for things.
I don't particularly want to do any of that.
I am definitively Whelmed.

Ever feel like no matter what you do you are behind everyone?
I feel this way... ALL the time!
But eventually I will get there.
Eventually I will be done with school.
Eventually I will finally get into my house!
Sometimes no matter what I try, I miss the target.
But then again, sometimes I decide I am to lazy to try.
And that is completely my fault!
So then I feel like I just want to crawl up and sleep and not do anything but veg.... 
Awful.
But at least I can start trying at any time right?
Turn everything around with one action.
I can do it.
