Is Everything as Urgent as Your Stress Would Imply?

Why?

So many people.

So many situations.

SO MUCH STRESS.

Feeling the need to help.

Getting caught up in it all.

Not letting it go.

Argh.

I don't personalize it necessarily.

Just Try to help and it is on my mind how to help.

Yay...:/

Life of A Teenage Girl

Uh, Oh ya.
I'm just wasting time on the computer and I'm finding all of these great things:)

Ain't that just the truth right now....!!!!!!!
Haha...Oh ya....

I saw this on Facebook too:

Then Satan said: Let there be feelings

haha:)



Oh ya. My friend Aarron showed me this song and I think it  is the cutest thing ever:):):)

To Love Oneself...

My friend sent this to me over Facebook through a link...
Totally made my night:)

Pretty cute huh? 

He's such a good friend:)

Some Pictures of the Week

 This weekend was fun:)
I gotta go visit Shelby in the Hospital tonight
(She's doing fine by the way)
And we got this dandy picture taken of us
<-----------------------

 Then going back in the week a wee bit,
This is us waiting in line on Thanksgiving.
We were waiting to go eat.
IN CHUCKARAMA!!
Huzzah!!
------------------------------>

 This was also at the Hospital tonight,
I was sitting on Ethan because he took my spot >:(
So I sat on him:)
and apparently it looked like I had 4 legs...??
haha, I thought it was funny
<-----------------------------------------

And lastly,
Since Elisha came in for the Holiday,
I finally got a picture with her.
I haven't seen her for about 4 months!
It was nice to finally be cool with her again!!
I love her so much:)

Two Steps in Their Shoes

I was on Facebook a couple of days ago and came across this:

Never make someone a priority when all you are to them is an option.

 It's got me thinking of course.
I GOTTA GET MY PRIORITIES STRAIGHT.
***************************************************************
I had a good chat with my friend and I realized I am putting too much emphasis on myself.

Yes. You heard it right:

I am a selfish person.

Does this surprise you?

If it does, man...That's a wee bit sad.

I'm not saying that because I want people to come up to me and say,

"Oh no you're not Sydney, you are one of the most selfless people I know!"

NO.

I don't wanna hear that.

I just started facing the facts.

My problems aren't important that big of a deal.

Sometimes I feel I put too much thought into everything that DOESN'T matter.

But hey, I'm human. I'm still learning slowly.

Just cut me a little bit of slack...

Thank you!!!

The Little Things in Life

I am thankful for my English teacher.
Me, being such a slacker, turned a paper in 3 weeks late.
Technically I should've only gotten half credit, but alas......She gave me an 80/100!
It brought my grade from a C+ to a B+ :D
She is pretty fantastic!!

I am thankful for my parents.

My phone died on Sunday because it decided it wasn't going to charge for me.

But my parents got online and ordered me a new phone.

It hasn't been activated yet so they are being so sweet and trying their best to help me activate it.

I am thankful for my friends.

I can talk to them about anything and they won't judge me:)

I can text them at obnoxious times and sometimes I'll get a response!

I am thankful for my family.

Elisha came up from Snow College Tuesday night to spend Thanksgiving with us.

Although she had to return last night to work for Black Friday,

I still got to spend some time with her after not seeing her for 4 months!

I am thankful for UCAS.

If UCAS did not exist nothing would be the same.

I would still be going to American Fork, most likely doing guard.

I wouldn't have found the most amazing group of friends ever.

I wouldn't be the same person. Period.

I am thankful for paper and pencil.

I am constantly writing notes to people or just writing my thoughts down.

If they did not exist, I would be a disturb child.

Haha, ya, lets stick with that!

I can go on and on about all the things I am thankful for,

but these are some of the things that came to mind yesterday.

Maybe I will make a list of all the things I am grateful for over the next few days:)

Yay:)

Hope Your Thanksgiving was wonderful:)

Power of a Friend

I know it's long and you've probably heard it before, but read it:)

Teenage Annoyances.

Oh how lovely it is...

Hmm.

I, not events, have the power to make me happy or unhappy today. I can choose which it shall be. Yesterday is dead, tomorrow hasn't arrived yet. I have just one day, today, and I'm going to be happy in it.

~Groucho Marx.

Today has been an interesting day.

Drama happened over the weekend.

I went into today feeling stupid and hurt and sorry.

I wrote down my feelings in a note and gave it to someone.

After that,

My mood did a 360.

I ended my day being happy.

I wasn't going to let a small thing change my one day to live.

it's fantastic:)

Hope I feel this way tomorrow!!!

:D

Wha?!

Oh my goodness.

Now What?

People confuse me.

I don't know where to go from here.

I don't know.

Mmhmm.

That's where my head is at this point in time.

 

 

Should I?

Should I not?

 

Meh.

 

Love you too.

 

Bye.

200th

This is my 200th post!!!

I can't believe I have been blogging for this long.

I was not expecting to actually LIKE blogging,

but let's face it,

I LOVE IT!!!!

Oh ya.

I should be writing a paper right now.

It's going fantasically can't you tell? :)

I'm on Pinterest and writing on this dandy thing:)

Go and do your homework!

Bye Chillins!!

Birthday Blunders

Birthday: [burth-day] noun 1. a day marking or commemorating the origin, founding, or beginning of something.

Birthdays are happy days.
Days where you can celebrate the bringing of new life into the world--your life.
It is a day full of many memories from past years.

But, you are still moving forward, forever aging in this world.

I decided to be opposite on my birthday this year however.

Instead of receiving gifts, I wanted to give some.

*the night before my birthday I went to the store and bought flowers for my mother.

Heavens, without her, I would not be!! Haha, she deserved them:)

*after school on my birthday, I decided to participate in our Stake blood drive hosted by The Red Cross.

I found that it made me more happy than if I were to be selfish and simply receive.

Sure, it was nice accepting my friend's presents, but I felt so much better giving:)

Overall, I feel my birthday was a success.

After donating my blood was kinda a fail....haha:)

I went to my friend's house where we truly had a party:)

We gotta do donuts in the parking lot, and eat delicious food! My Fav:)

My birthday was wonderful:)

Thanks:)

To Open My Mouth and Speak

things happen:(

It takes a whole lot of courage to apologize.
I would know, cause I've had to do it before.
But in the end, everything is better:)

The Mess I Made

Oh.
Girls are dramatic if you didn't know that already....
But it's partially--well almost completely--my fault.
But hey,
What can I do besides continue living?
Nothing.
I don't want to make things worse.
If they want to be mad at me,
I'm gonna let them do whatever they want to me.
And if I get hurt,
I get hurt and I move on.
It is only high school.

So....

Zombies, Twister, Robbers

My Halloween was a lot better than I intended it to be:)

In my last post I stated that I loved Halloween.

It is even more true now than then.

Yesterday was such a PARTY!!

Everyone look so dang attractive in their costumes yesterday:)

[especially someone specifice, dang I didn't know they could look like that]

Irish Twister is still such a fun awkward game,

but it does have its limits,

such as when a guy has to squeeze between your legs,

or when they have to hold onto your waist to keep themselves balanced,

Uhm. Ya. Sometimes its a wee bit TOO awkward for my taste.

 

I also realized how nice it is to vent.

Just talk and get it all out there with some of your friends.

Tressa and Kaitlin and I had VERY intense conversations:)

Other than the face that a cat scared us so bad as we were sitting in my car:)

(you know, black cats on Halloween, SO SCARY)

Sure,

I love Halloween:)
