thinking spot

Find a thinking spot.

It should be somewhere no one thinks to find you, but it doesn't have to be secret(I don't like secrets.)Preferably somewhere you can see great works of God(e.g nature, children.) And you should bring something that can occupy your subconscious brain while your conscious brain gets all the thinking done.

You see, the conscious mind and the subconscious are constantly battling(Maybe it's ADD people. Maybe it's just me.)SC is usually worrying about either bodily functions, the past, or what people think of you(e.g what happened that day, the fact that you're tired) while, if you're on the right track, your conscious brain is focused on the future and learning.

Have something for your SCM to play with. I like to eat Popsicles because it's just the right level of difficulty for it to take all my SCM's attention leaving my CM to roam free. Pooh had a thinking spot and we all know what an intellectual he is. Now, if any of you, dear, readers try this I'd love to hear results. I'm mostly curious if this new theory/ epiphany is exclusive to me. I know this for sure; Thinking spots are marvelous pathways to epiphanies for Elysse. I also know that my ramen is getting cold.

It's warmer outside than it is inside and I'm freezing to pieces. It's not even that warm outside, it's just really cold inside. I even put on socks and it didn't make a difference.

A few things that make me miss my sister even more:
1. the fact that I'm severely craving a chocolate orange
2. my new favorite show, Sonny With a Chance
3. the fact that Ashley Bonnett's sister is coming home on Saturday. I'm jealous.

Not to mention the fact that I have to wait another 47 days until I have something to do. Officially I've decided to make an agenda for the next 46 days until EFY so I can look forward to the time between now and then. Thank you very much, and goodbye.

excuse me?

This post is dedicated to my lovely sister. Seeing as how she has read my last two post means she's been on so she has no excuse. I have only one question; Why don't you post?

woah.

I've just been shocked. I just said such a profound thing to a friend that there is no way it came from me. I'm so grateful for my desire to have the spirit with me bear fruit.

I haven't posted a REAL post in a long time. I think I'm mostly worried that it won't be nearly as awesome as my previous posts before I knew what I was doing as a "teenager."

Well, things are good. Teenagers are stupid. And that's how the world goes.

Recap of the past few months for the youth in my ward: "drama, drama, drama, lie, drama"... also, in my case, a spot of "gag me." But in spite of stupid drama that has occurred in the past that still annoys me, I'm happy being me. The bad part is I'm not happy with others not being me. I know, it's really bad.

I'm pretty observant, so I can kind of see what some of these kids are doing wrong, why they're doing it, and how they're justifying it. The problem is; they don't see it! I could always tell them, but the biggest problem we have is pride. They'll say "It's not me!" or "That's in the past" and "That's not it. I'm perfect." BLEGH!
Not to mention the fact that no one knows me well enough to respect my opinion.

So, when I start to get discouraged about the fact that I can't help these people I remember "Hey! I'm fifteen. I probably won't know these kids later. I can move on to less prideful people who actually want to be better people." and then I don't feel so crummy. I just be cheerful and myself, and work on my own eternal salvation. Then I wonder; "Am I leaving them to fend for themselves?" and if that's the case then they're in trouble because they're so blinded by their pride. They have no idea they're doing something wrong.
I've always had a problem with wanting to control others growth so I've decided, just now, that I'm going to back off and just be a good example that maybe they can understand later. Thanks! I'm glad we had this little chat. :]
