Bored? #2

I really don't get bored that often. I am always on the go and always doing something, or needing to do something.So this post is for you people that do get bored. That you are bored watching tv or bored reading a book. I don't know how you cab be bored while doing those things, but people tell me that all the time. So, if you are bored: 1) Write a list of things you want to do, work on, accomplish, or what you think would be fun! (pinterest is a good website for ideas) 2) Go for a walk, we live next to a beautiful mountain, why not go and explore the hills a little bit? Maybe you would even want to bring a sandwich so you can have your own peaceful picnic. If you do this, I advise that you bring water and a camera. You see wonderful things up in our hills next to lake mountain and you don't want to forget what it looks like. 3) Ride your bike, or roller blade, long board, or skate board. It doesn't matter if you have a destination, just get up and go. One, you get exercise. Two, you are not bored. Three you are doing something you love to do. 4) Do you have clothes that you don't wear or like anymore? Well, go through your closet and drawers and put everything that you don't wear and don't like in a bag, then when you have time you can go and donate them to a homeless shelter. 5) Host a party! Everyone loves a party! All you need to do is tell all of your friends, set up a date, get a stereo and music. You may want to have drinks and food, and if you drink then by all means drink your heart out. 6) Go through your music. I go through the music only iPod frequently, because I get sick of listening to the same songs. So I get rid of them then I get new ones! 7) This one isn't to exciting, but you could go to the library and play on the computer. 8) Star gaze! I love to star gaze. But if you try to star gaze while the sky is cloudy then I doubt you will be very successful on looking at the stars. You would just be looking up into black nothingness. 9) Redesign! I recently found an awesome way to make your boring t-shirts into something amazing! Go to trashtocouture.com there are tons of ideas on there if what you can do, and the one I was talking about is the second post down. It is the "Road trip Diy, weave texture" 10)Reanrage the furniture in your room 11) Put a prank on your parents or siblings car. 12) plan a neighborhood project or yard sale 13) have a water fight 14) do a surprise attack on someone 15) go for a drive, drive up Provo canyon and just look at the beauty around you. We live in a beautiful state, might as well take advantage of it and enjoy it.

That is me, And me is I . If you try to search my name anywhere on the internet you won't get very much information, so go ahead and try, you wont even be able to find me on Facebook. I am the person that doesn't want to be found, that doesn't want to be known by the whole world, at least not yet. I am starting my life plan this June, and I am kind of scared. I hope it goes as planned, and nothing gets in the way, but of course something will get in the way because that is just how things are. My favorite colors are white and black, and if you do not think they are colors well then just deal with it. My favorite foods are; fruits, cheese cake, Korean, Chinese, Mexican. But I absolutely hate sea food, any sea food. It just makes me sick and it tastes horrid! I don't know how people can stand to eat fish.
I love to dance, I am in a professional Tahitian dance group, we put on shows for people all the time, we charge $500 for us to come and dance for you. I love dancing no matter what type of dancing it is. I have pointe shoes, I am in a jazz class, at school we do modern, and I love hip hop, so really I have a mix of everything.
I am always doing something, I am always on the go, I am never just sitting there. I like to keep myself busy, I go crazy if I don't have anything to do. I have lived in eagle mountain Utah for eleven years. I have traveled all over the states. I am random I am spontaneous I am ambitious

Journal Prompt on March 15th 2012

I didn't know what I would find when I opened the door. I stood there in the hall staring at the door knob for a few minutes just waiting for something to happen. Nothing happened. After a while longer I decide to open the door. I slowly put my hand forward to grasp the door knob, and I turn it even slower.
I never thought that I would ever get to this point. I swing the door wide open so I could get a good look of the place. It was really dark and muggy. I scanned the wall with my hands trying to find the light switch. Ha! There it is. I flipped them on and looked around.

This was more then I expected. I thought that it would be more run down then this. It was big and majestic, you could see everything, it was a glass house that could not hide anything.

Bored?

You go crazy!!

You know when you are walking home from school, and you are bored out of your mind?

Well, just put your ear buds in and turn up the music.

Start dancing around, swing your arms around. Act and dance as if no one is watching. No one cares what you look like.

The world doesn't care what you look like.

As long as you are having fun, just go with it. It doesn't matter what people think! Who cares about them?!

Just have the time of your life!

If you are having troubles with doing this, just close your eyes and just let yourself go. Put your guard down. Feel like you are the only one in the world.

Focus on the music that is playing in your ears, and the music inside of you. And then just dance to it!

Love who you are, love what you are doing, and just let your mind wonder.

Something to check out and always remember!

PASSION

   

pas·sion

   [pash-uhn]  Show IPA

noun

1.

any powerful or compelling emotion or feeling, as love orhate.

My definition:

PASSION:

Something that you really enjoy learning, teaching, reading or being involved in

Example:

Ballet, I like learning about anything that has to do with ballet. I watch movies that have any sort of ballet in it. I like dancing ballet. It is peaceful and fun to do. I taught ballet to some little girls at my neighbors dance studio for a while, I had a lot of fun with it.

People think that ballet is just a girly thing, but look at me! I am not girly at all, I don't own any pink. I love to get dirty and listen to loud rock music, and have crazy hair. Who would think that someone like me would dance ballet? I absolutely love it. Like a runner who likes to run with beautiful scenery around them instead of just a boring track. Meaning: I breath dance. Just like runners like clean air. (scenery). I was on point for a while. Then I did not have the time for classes anymore, so I stopped. I loved doing it. I went to the Academy of Ballet. I have always wanted to be the prima-ballerina that every dancer knows, and who dances for a living, but I know that will not happen because I don't have the time, it is not a realistic dream, I am not skinny or fit enough, and I don't have the money for all of the schooling. 

A ballet tv show right now that I am addicted to on netflix is Dance Academy. I watch at least one episode a day. I really like it. I can to relate to it and I also want to live it. I would love to be in a Ballet boarding school. But my mom wont let me. I think it would be a great adventure. 

I can't wait to see what the future holds for me!

How to make Easy Summer LIghting

How to make Easy Summer LIghting

Here is what you’ll need:

- Several cleaned jars. I always keep mine for projects. Soak them in water to get the tags off and use some Goo Gone for the glue residue. Make sure to clean them with soap to get all the Goo Gone off or else the paint won’t stick.
- Yarn or some sort of string. If the yarn has a lot of fuzzy fibers they may stick to the jar a little but it won’t be very noticeable so don’t worry about it too much
- A can of white spray paint. I used Flat. You can use any color you want but with winter coming up I though white was best suited.
- You’ll also need something to cover whatever surface you’ll be spraying on. Spray paint doesn’t work as well when it’s cold outside so it will take longer to dry. Make sure to give it some extra time before you touch the jars.

I used some regular packaging string and some yard with texture. Wrap the string around the jar tightly and tie a knot. Now wrap the string around the rest of the jar tightly criss-crossing and overlapping until you like what you see. Then just tie the end to the leftover string where you started and cut off the ends.

Place the jars onto your covered surface upside down and spray paint them evenly with 2-3 coats. Make sure to let them dry for 5-10 minutes in between coats. Once they are fully dried just cut the string in one place and unwrap. Now you can place a tea light inside and decorate away 

I think it would also look cute to wrap some twine around the bases of the jars for some more texture

I love the different effects the skinny string and the textured yarn create. The jars that were wrapped with the thicker yarn look like they have puffy clouds floating in the sky.
This project is also super cheap since the jars were free and I had the string and yarn on hand, all it cost me was a can of spray paint. They would also make great little gifts, just tie a ribbon and bow around 3 and you’re ready to go.

How to make homemade ice cream in a baggie

http://www.vippins.com

How to make homemade ice cream in a baggie. This is just as cool as my homemade butter in a canning jar. Oh how I wish I could take credit for coming up with this one, but I can’t. I saw it in Disney Family Fun Magazine the other day and thought it was such a great idea. I whipped up a few batches in no time and soon we were eating homemade ice cream from a baggie. I’m pretty sure this is not a new concept and has been done for years, but its new to me. Here is what you will need to make homemade ice cream in a baggie: 2 TBL sugar 1 cup half & half (or light cream) 1/2 tsp vanilla extract 1/2 cup coarse salt or table salt(I used canning salt) ice gallon-sized Ziploc bag pint-sized Ziploc bag Mix the sugar, half & half and vanilla extract together. Pour into a pint-sized Ziploc baggie. Make sure it seals tightly. Now take the gallon-sized Ziploc bag and fill it up halfway with ice and pour the salt over the ice. Now place the cream filled bag into the ice filled bag and seal. Make sure it is sealed tightly and start shaking. Shake for about 5 minutes (or 8 minutes if you use heavy cream.) Open the gallon-sized bag and check to see if the ice cream is hard, if not keep shaking. Once the ice cream is finished, quickly run the closed pint-sized baggie under cold water to quickly clean the salt off the baggie. Open the baggie and pop in a spoon. Hope you enjoy your homemade ice cream in a baggie as much as we do

The Real World

The real world is a slap in the face.

When you walk out the movie theater after watching an amazing movie and your life just seems
boring, you feel like the movie was the Real World, and that your life is the movie.

It is really quite disapointing.

When you are reading a fantasy that you are really into, you just can't stop thinking about how different things would be if we lived in that world.

How boring our world is without our imagination and dreams being the reality.



Every teenager can't wait to get out of the house.

But when they finally do get out of the house, it is a reality shock,
they have to start paying for their own food, clothes, school, gas, car, everything!

And they Have to get a job that pays enough for pay for rent and all the things that they need.

They are all on there own.

They think that they have so much freedom, and that they can party and go out all the time,

But really it doesn't happen like that,

REALITY SLAP





When someone starts drugs, they think, that they are different from everyone else, and they think that what happens to others wont happen to them. (The conciquences of doing drugs)

They think that the get more friends, but really, those people are not there for you, they are just wanting to not be alone.

They don't care about your problems, they don't care about how you are feeling.

All they think about is their own problems and their next high, and how they are going to get the drugs and money to get that high.

Not one person says that they don't regret what they did

They wish that they had never done it in the first place.





When you look at the billboards, and magazines,

You think that somewhere out there in the world, someone looks like what you are looking at.

Skinny, perfect smooth skin, Bright eyes, perfect hair, cute clothes, but really, after the picture is taken, the photoshop it, and make it look even better then what it really is.

It is not real.

Not one person looks like what they show in the media.

Be honest, but don't hurt anyone's feelings.

Be independent, but not a loner.

Be smart, but not a nerd.

Be sexy, but not a slut.

Be skinny, but don't barf up your burger.

Be funny, but not to hide some other deficiency.

How the heck is a girl supposed to "be" anything?

-Heaven looks a lot like the mall, page 15

This is now my favorite website! It has amazing ideas that I want to try! They take something old, and dingy and turn it into something cute and modern! I would wear everything that is on the website.
This website is a must look at!

Embarassment

I don't really get imbarassed.
If I fall down the stairs at school,
I laugh, get up and still laugh.
Yeah I feel stupid,
But really who cares,
If you fall down the stairs?
A lot of other people do it!
I have the talent of
Tripping on Flat surfaces.
I don't get imbarassed
If my makeup is messed up,
Or if I look weird,
Or if I am acting weird.
That is who I am,
I am happy with who I am.
I am not going to change.
In life you choose
What you feel like sometimes.
And embarassment
Is one of those feelings
That you can control.
That is just life.
If something happens to you,
I bet that at least one other person
Is having the same thing happen to them.
Why be imbaressed?

Haka!

Jealousy

How to handle Jealousy:

http://www.google.com/url?q=http://www.wikihow.com/Handle-Jealousy&sa=U&ei=Y0tyT-uQH6jjiAKbkai9AQ&ved=0CDUQtwIwAA&usg=AFQjCNFLUZp0N-DoI3iAUDJpqEx5HTJA5Q

Jealousy is not a good thing. It gets you into trouble or creates drama, and ruin relationships. Jealousy is not something you want. Jealousy is when we want what other people have or are doing. It can split friends, it can cause boyfriend and girlfriend's to break up, and sometimes people even kill because they are so jealous. I do not know of anyone who has gone that far, but I know that some murders are a cause of jealousy, because they want what someone else has, so they do anything it takes to get that thing, even if it means to kill a person.

Jealousy has
Frightening eyes.
Jealousy has
Grinding teeth.
Jealousy has
A cunning face.

Jealousy can live
Without a mind,
Without a heart,
Without a soul,
Even without God.

Human jealousy
And divine Ecstasy
Are eternal strangers.

Jealousy
Is an aggressive boxer,
A repulsive dancer,
A hopeless singer
And a useless storyteller.

Jealousy,
Before you entered
Into my life,
I was the world's
Richest prince.
Now that you are in me
And I am for you,
I have become
The poorest street-beggar.

Jealousy,
You are my constant
Nightmare-mind.
You are my constant
Love-absence-heart.

Shortest is the distance
From jealousy to hell.

Jealousy,
You are your own
Ultimate
Self-destructive-indulgence.

Excerpt from My Jealousy Is My Madness-Burden by Sri Chinmoy.

A competent and self-confident person is incapable of jealousy in anything. Jealousy is invariably a symptom of neurotic insecurity.
Robert A. Heinlein

A negative judgment gives you more satisfaction than praise, provided it smacks of jealousy.
Jean Baudrillard

Anger and jealousy can no more bear to lose sight of their objects than love.
George Eliot

Back then I didn't think a woman like that, or a relationship like that, could exist with complete freedom and no jealousy or possessiveness. I thought it sounded too good to be true and I was certainly convinced it wasn't the life for me!
Sylvia Kristel

But when I would see the surrogate, my first instinct, my first reaction would be jealousy, because she was doing what I wanted to do.
Cheryl Tiegs

Don't waste time on jealousy. Sometimes you're ahead, sometimes you're behind.
Mary Schmich

From heresy, frenzy and jealousy, good Lord deliver me.
Ludovico Ariosto

I do not say anything from jealousy.
Anna Held

It is not love that is blind, but jealousy.
Lawrence Durrell

It is remarkable that jealousy of individual property in land often goes along with very exaggerated doctrines of tribal or national property in land.
William Graham Sumner

Hunger Games Girl on Fire – Official iOS Game Review

With all the excitement of midnight shows beginning tonight, you might have forgotten about The Hunger Games Girl on Fire official tie-in game for iOS. It was just released today and if you have an iPhone or an iPad, you can download the game here for free!I spent some time playing with it, and I have to say, it’s pretty good! The designer said he game it an old-school 16 bit feel, reminiscent of an older Nintendo system, intentionally in order to make it more it’s own thing and less a cheesy mirror of Jennifer Lawrence and the film. It’s got a great look, polished, but retro. The music is one of the best parts as the dramatic drum beats greet you, along with a quick (skipable) intro that warns you the woods are dangerous, but hey, gotta hunt somewhere! The game opens with Katniss running through the forest. A swipe up lands you in the tree tops and a swipe down rolls you back to the ground, all the while running. Why are you running? Tracker Jackers of course! Giant hornets are after you. Tap them to shoot them out of the sky with your trusty bow and you’re safe for a little longer.Soon they start shooting poison/laser/whatever at you, making things more difficult. If you get hit by a Tracker Jacker or it’s projectile, you start “hallucinating.” Get hit again while still in the venom induced state, and it’s lights out. The level proceeds to get more difficult as these muttations get added shields, making it impossible to shoot them while active.The goal is to get safely back to District 12, where it is rumored that instead of Tracker Jackers, you will have Capitol hovercraft to deal with, but apparently I’m not skilled enough to get that far yet.Overall, it’s a solid game for you phone, with some intense action that requires leaping, rolling, and shooting, all at once. Great music and fun graphics seal the deal. I would have liked to see perhaps some kind of powerups or additional aspects, but as it is, still lots of fun. 8/10.

Stress Management Ideas

Read a good book

Do some Yoga

Get a message

DO NOT DO THIS!

Meditate and Breathe

Sit and take in nature around you

What I am going to do in the near future...

Be an ninja!

My mom and I are working on this right now!

I am doing this at the next Lunchin' I go to!

I just need to remember how to do it, or print it off, and do it at home!

I am going to do that with one of my friends!

Dreams

I have a dream about every night. A lot of them are of my beign lost or having to save someone or even the world. I don't really know what all of the dreams I have mean but they sure are interesting. A lot of the time I am even pregnant, going to get pregnant or already have a child, the child is always a boy with dark hair and light blue eyes.
Most of my dreams could be turned into very popular movies. They are full of adventure and sometimes even romance. They are very structured and easy to follow. There is a bad guy, a good setting, a good guy, goals and motives. I would love to make any of my dreams into a movie. So if you know of a movie director that is looking for a story that they could turn into a movie, then give him/me the information to contact!
They make me think that I have a purpose in this world and that I am meant to be here and I have a task to accomplish. Maybe it is saving the world, but I don't know how I could ever do that. When the time comes, if it does come, I would probably find a way to do it.

Courage

Courage is led by fear,
But courage is not to stear.
Courage is strength,
And bravery to no length.
Courage is acceptance,
Without disturbance.
Courage is love,
Without rove.
Courage is a weakness,
That makes you anxious.

Courage is not failing and giving up,
Courage is failing and trying again without doubt.
Courage is not anger,
Courage is love to no end.
Courage is not hard,
Courage is something everyone has.
Courage is not scary,
Courage is pushing aside what is scary.
Courage is not hiding,
Courage is to speak out above everyone else.

Fear

FEAR
Fear is common.
Everyone has fear.
We are all afraid of something else.
Fear eats your sanity.
Fear controls you.
Fear manipulates you.
people sometimes seek fear.
Some people even go TO their fear.
Fear is everywhere.
Fear is always there,
Fear never goes away.


DARKNESS
Is one of my
Many fears.
When I say
Many,
I mean A LOT!

Darkness:
Hides everything,
good and bad.
Someone could be
Right in front
Of your face,
And you would
not even know it.
You can't see...
ANYTHING....
So when you
walk into something
and it hurts WAY bad.
Because you are unguarded
Unprepared, and not ready for it.

Anything can be in that
great oblivion of darkness.

AFRAID

I am afraid of ......
Pain. I do not like to be in pain. It scares me.
Biological dad. I am to the point now that I won't even answer the door or the phone just because I am afraid that it will be him.
Darkness. I have a night light in my room. When I enter a new room there has to be at least a little bit of light or I will panic. I really don't like a lit up room, I like dim, just not pitch black darkness that hides everything that is in it. Someone can jump out and kill me without me ever seeing it or noticing that he is right in front of my my face until I am in pain.
I am afraid of love. Of opening myself up again, and letting someone in. I am afraid of getting hurt and attatched to something that wont last.
I am afraid of needles. I can't even look at them, when they are in somone or not.
I am afraid of growing old alone, without anyone to love and hold me through the years of my life.
I am afraid of deep water. I have alot of nightmares where there is a something giant, comeing up out of the darkness of the deep. Whether the animal is dangerous or not, I will still be really scared. I don't like to go somewhere I can't see the bottom or anything where I just feel vunerable and where I can't touch the bottom.

Untitled, By Hannah Baker, From the book 13 Reasons Why

If my love was an oceon,
you would see no land.
If my love were a desert,
you would see only sand.
If my love were a star-
late at night,only light.
And if my love could grow wings,
I'd be soaring in flight.

I got this poem from the book 13 Reasons Why, by Jay Asher. He has worked at an independent bookstore, an outlet bookstore, a chain bookstore, and two public libraries. He hopes, someday, to work for a used bookstore. When he is not writing, Jay plays guitar and goes camping.





I like this poem because alot of times I can not even put words to my feelings, and I really like how he was able to put words to a feeling. And I love some things so much that it really cant be put into words or explained, and he did it!
