DISTRACTED

SO I HAD A TOPIC BUT THEN I FORGOT IT AND THEN I HAD ANOTHER BUT NOW I DONT WANT TO WRITE ABOUT IT... IM A LITTLE BIT TOO DISTRACTED TO WRITE WHAT I WANT ANYWAYS. SO INSTEAD YOU GET THIS POST ABOUT DISTRACTIONS :) LOL. THE PAST LITTLE WHILE IVE BEEN BUSY WITH WORK AND EVERYTHING ELSE GOING ON THAT IVE NEGLECTED WHAT I REALLY WANT TO DO. IVE BEEN DISTRACTED BY SOMETHING ELSE AS WELL. ITS FUNNY HOW SOMETHING CAN CONSUME YOUR THOUGH ALL DAY AND ALL NIGHT. THEN EVERYTHING YOU DO SOMEHOW COMES BACK TO THAT ONE THING AND EVEN THOUGH ITS NOT EVEN REMOTELY RELATED, YOUR BRAIN WILL SOMEHOW MADE A CONNECTION TO THAT ONE THING AND THEN BAM YOURE DISTRACTED FROM WHAT YOU WERE DOING. ITS ALSO NOT THAT HARD TO DISTRACT ME... I HAVE A SHORT ATTENTION SPAN... SO FOR SOMETHING TO KEEP MY ATTENTION LIKE THAT, IT REALLY MUST BE SOMETHING. I EVEN WANTED TO WRITE MORE ABOUT ADULTING, BUT NOW IM JUST TOO DISTRACTED AND I ALREADY WROTE ABOUT THE MAIN POINTS. I GUESS DISTRACTIONS ARE ALSO NICE, THEY TAKE YOU AWAY FOR A MOMENT AND MAKE YOU FORGET ALL YOUR WORRIES AND WHATNOT, BUT THE MOMENT YOU ARE BACK YOU REALIZE THAT NOTHING HAS HAPPENED OR CHANGED. ITS TIME TO FOCUS BACK, FORGET THESE DISTRACTIONS, AND GET BACK ON TRACK TO WHAT I WAS DOING AND THINKING.

IT WAY MY BEST FRIENDS BABY SHOWER THE PAST WEEKEND, SO THAT WAS FUN. GOT A CHANCE TO SEE A BUNCH OF OLD FRIENDS I HAVENT SEEN IN A WHILE. ITS ALSO BEEN A WHILE SINCE WE ALL GOT TOGETHER LIKE THAT. EVERYONE IS TOO BUSY THESE DAYS. SOME OF THEM HAVE LEVELLED UP AND ARE FATHERS NOW AND AS EXPECTED, PRIORITIES CHANGE. ITS ALL UNDERSTANDABLE, THATS JUST HOW LIFE IS, BUT THINGS SURE HAVE CHANGED. SOMETIMES I LOOK BACK AND LIFE WAS JUST SO MUCH EASIER, BUT OF COURSE WE ALL HAVE TO GROW UP, AND NOW ITS JUST SO MUCH HARDER AND EVERYTHING ALWAYS JUST SEEM SO MUCH MORE COMPLICATED. WELL... WHAT CAN YOU DO... RIGHT... JUST KEEP AT IT... I SUPPOSE. EVERYTHING WILL JUST FALL IN PLACE LIKE IT SHOULD.

SHORT AND SWEET

WELL... NO REAL TOPIC, NOT MUCH TO UPDATE, TIRED AND LAZY... SO THIS WILL BE ONE OF THOSE WEEKS WHERE THE POST IS REALLY LACKING MUCH SUBSTANCE LOL. ACTUALLY A BIG THING IS ONE OF MY CLOSE FRIENDS GOT ENGAGED. WE WERE ALL PRESENT WHEN IT HAPPENED AND IT WAS PRETTY COOL. MAKES THE REST OF US REALLY THINK THOUGH... WE ALL GETTING OLDER AND AND TRYING TO FIGURE OUT WHERE WE ARE GOING... I HAVE OTHER FRIENDS WHO ARE MARRIED ALREADY AND SOME OF THEM EVEN HAVE KIDS, AND ITS JUST SO WEIRD THAT THIS IS WHAT IM THINKING ABOUT THESE DAYS... THE DAYS OF PLAYING GAMES AND JUST HAVING FUN ARE OVER... GOTTA START THINKING ABOUT DIAPERS AND MORTGAGES... I REALLY CANT BELIEVE THAT THIS IS LIFE NOW... WHO WOULD HAVE THOUGHT... GOTTA BE A GROWN UP NOW... TRYING TO LOOK DOWN THE ROAD TO SEE WHATS NEXT AND I REALLY DONT KNOW... REALLY JUST DOING WHATEVER I CAN TO JUST MAKE IT TO THE NEXT STAGE. IVE SAID ALL THIS STUFF BEFORE BUT IT HITS YOU MORE WHEN THINGS HAPPEN AND THEN YOU START THINKING MORE ABOUT IT AND NEXT THING YOU KNOW YOURE STRESSING ABOUT IT... THEN YOU START STRESSING ABOUT STRESSING AND IT WILL JUST CONTINUE AS A VICIOUS CYCLE... UNTIL THAT DAY WHERE IT BUILDS UP SO MUCH THAT YOU JUST CANT TAKE IT ANYMORE AND YOU JUST BLOW... YOU REALLY JUST NEED TO RELAX, YOU CANT LET THINGS GET TO YOU, AND WHEN IT DOES THE RESULT IS NEVER PRETTY. JUST DO WHAT YOU NEED TO, TO KEEP YOURSELF HAPPY. REMEMBER... IN THE ENDS ITS ALWAYS ABOUT YOU :)

VALUES & PRIORITIES

SO WHAT DO YOU VALUE??? EVERYONE VALUES SOMETHING, AND IM NOT TALKING ABOUT JUST MONEY OR OBJECTS. IM TALKING ABOUT PERSONAL VALUES AND HOW YOU LIVE YOUR LIFE. IM TALKING ABOUT THE RELATIONSHIPS YOU FORM. IM TALKING ABOUT FAMILY. IM TALKING ABOUT ALL THE THINGS THAT MONEY CANT BUY. ITS THE VALUES THAT EACH ONE OF US HAS THAT DETERMINE HOW WE LIVE OUR LIVES AND WHAT WE HOLD DEAR. THE PROBLEM THESE DAYS IS WHAT DO WE DO WHEN OUR VALUES CONFLICT AGAINST WHAT OR WHERE WE WANT TO GO? HOW DO WE GET OVER IT? CAN MONEY REALLY BUY EVERYTHING? EVERYONE HAS A PRICE AND ITS TRUE... EVEN THOUGH MONEY CANT BUY EVERYTHING IT REALLY CAN... VALUES ARE WHAT MAKES US WHO WE ARE. CAN YOU REALLY GIVE UP OR BREAK YOUR VALUES TO GET WHAT YOU WANT? ARE WE REALLY STILL US IF WE GIVE THAT ALL UP? YA... JUST BEEN THINKING LATELY AS YOU CAN TELL. SORTA JUST RAMBLING... I HAD THIS THOUGHT OUT ACTUALLY BUT NOW IT JUST BLURRED INTO ONE BIG CLUSTER OF WORDS... I THINK IT THE REASON THIS TOPIC CAME UP IS ONE OF MY CLOSE BUDDY JUST HAD A KID AND WHAT HE VALUES NOW REALLY SHOWS. HE VALUES EVERY MOMENT HE HAS WITH HIS NEW KID. I PERSONALLY VALUE MY FRIENDS AND FAMILY, IT IS THEM WHO HAVE MADE ME WHO I AM. I ALSO VALUE THE RELATIONSHIPS AND OPPORTUNITIES THAT I HAVE BEEN GIVEN, BOTH THE GOOD AND THE BAD. HAVING SOMETHING TO HOLD ON TO GIVES US PURPOSE, GIVES US DIRECTION, GIVES US MOTIVATION TO CONTINUE ON AND KEEP ON MOVING FORWARD.

WHAT ABOUT PRIORITIES??? VALUES AND PRIORITIES TIE INTO EACH OTHER. THEY DEFINE EACH OTHER. WHAT YOU VALUE DETERMINES HOW MUCH OF A PRIORITY THEY ARE TO YOU. EVERYONES PRIORITIES ARE DIFFERENT, AND THEY WILL BE DIFFERENT DEPENDING ON WHERE IN LIFE YOU ARE. GROWING UP YOUR PRIORITIES REALLY DO CHANGE. SOMEHOW WITHOUT KNOWING IT... SLOWLY YET SURELY YOUR PRIORITIES WILL CHANGE. PERHAPS SOMEONE OR SOMETHING MADE YOU REALIZE THAT THINGS NEED TO CHANGE. ITS THEN YOU REALIZE THAT YOU CANT KEEP GOING THE WAY YOU ARE GOING AND MAKE A CHANGE HOPEFULLY FOR THE BETTER. SAME THING AS BEFORE... I WENT AND SAW MY BUDDIES KID AND BASICALLY HIS WHOLE WORLD WAS FLIPPED UPSIDE DOWN... EVERYTHING THAT WAS A PRIORITY FOR HIM CHANGED AND NOW THE KID IS HIS FIRST PRIORITY. WHEN YOU WERE YOUNGER IT WAS SCHOOL, WHEN YOU GET OLDER ITS WORK AND MONEY AND FRIENDS. WHEN YOU GET EVEN OLDER ITS YOUR OWN FAMILY. ITS WEIRD JUST WATCHING EVERYONE YOU HAVE KNOWN FOR SO LONG GROW UP AND MOVE ON TO DIFFERENT PRIORITIES. THEN AGAIN WITHOUT PRIORITIES HOW DO YOU KNOW WHATS REALLY IMPORTANT. I GUESS... UNTIL YOU REALLY KNOW WHAT YOUR PRIORITIES ARE YOU REALLY DONT KNOW YOURSELF. ONCE AGAIN... KNOWING YOUR PRIORITIES TAKES TIME... AS USUAL EVERYTHING COMES BACK DOWN TO TIMING... SIGH...

WORKS BEEN BUSY BUT WORKS WORK AND ITS FUN :) JUST BEEN IN MEETINGS AND WORKING ON PAPERWORK BUT I MUST SAY CHRISTMAS SURE DOES HAVE ITS PERKS LOL. PEOPLE ARE BRINGING IN ALL SORTS OF GOODIES. BESIDES THE CARDS WE GOT CANDY AND CANDY AND CANDY AND CUPCAKES AND COOKIES AND CHOCOLATES AND SUCH AND SUCH HAHA. FRIDAY IS THE COMPANIES CHRISTMAS DINNER PARTY AND LIKE I SAID IM IN CHARGE OF THE SOCIAL ACTIVITIES... DID YOU KNOW ITS REALLY HARD TO COME UP WITH GAMES THAT ARE AGE APPROPRIATE AND WORK APPROPRIATE??? AND THAT IT HAS TO BE FUN!??!?!?!?! ITS ACTUALLY A LOT HARDER THAN YOU THINK... BUT I DID IT!!! I CAME UP WITH 3 GAMES :) BUT THEN I FORGOT THE 2ND ONE... SO I CREATED A 3RD ONE LOL AND THEN I REMEMBERED SO THEN I HAD 4 GAMES BUT NOW I WAS TOLD THERES A 5TH PRIZE BUT THAT 5 GAME IM JUST GONNA CRAP OUT AND BE LIKE HERE LETS JUST PICK AN WINNER HAHA.

WELL... IT SEEMS THAT ITS THAT TIME OF YEAR AGAIN... NO, NOT CHRISTMAS... BUT BIRTHDAY. HONESTLY ITS TRUE... THE OLDER YOU GET THE LESS YOU CARE AND THE MORE YOU STRESS HAHA. I SEEM FINE BUT SOME OF MY OTHER BUDDIES STARTING TO HIT THAT AGE WHERE ITS LIKE YA... UMMM LETS NOT REMIND EACH OTHER HAHA. DAYS GO BY AND EVENTUALLY WE END BACK UP HERE. SO ALMOST ANOTHER 365 DAYS HAS PAST AND GONE AND I MUST SAY THAT THIS YEAR SURE WAS AN INTERESTING ONE... THROUGH EVERYTHING THAT IVE DONT AND GONE THROUGH IVE FINALLY ARRIVED AT A PLACE THAT MAKES ME HAPPY. SO I GUESS HERES SOME HIGHLIGHTS FROM LAST BIRTHDAY TIL THIS ONE:

• FOUND A JOB, LEFT THAT JOB... LOL
• GOT THE JOB THAT I NOW LOVE
• GOT CLOSER WITH MY FRIENDS
• MET NEW PEOPLE
• HAD A RELATIONSHIP
• KEPT WITH THE HR PROGRAM
• GOT TO KNOW MYSELF BETTER
• THINGS FINALLY COMING TOGETHER
• PARTIED SO FREAKING HARD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I MEAN THERES LOTS MORE BUT JUST THE HIGHLIGHTS. IM HAPPY FOR EVERYTHING THAT HAS HAPPENED THIS YEAR AND ONCE AGAIN ITS BECAUSE OF IT THAT IT HAS BROUGHT ME TO THE PLACE THAT I AM TODAY. IM FINALLY AT A PLACE WHERE I CAN DO WHAT I WANT AND NEED TO GET DONE. JUST A LITTLE BIT MORE TIME AND IL FINALLY GET IT ALL LOL.

SO HOWS THE MONTH GOING SO FAR? WELL I WAS BEHIND SCHEDULE FOR A BIT BUT THE LONG WEEKEND ALLOWED ME TO CATCH UP. I LITERALLY DID SO MUCH WORK DURING THE WEEKEND I COULDNT BELIEVE IT. CAUGHT UP A LOT BUT STILL HAVE A LOT TO DO TO BE PREPARED. LIKE I SAID YOU GOTTA DO WHAT YOU GOTTA DO, AND CAUSE OF IT I REALLY AM NOT GOING OUT MUCH THIS MONTH. KEEP ON GRINDING. AUGUST IS THE WORST MONTH TOO CAUSE I HAVE SO MANY OF MY FRIENDS BDAYS AND MINE AND NOT TO MENTION THE FACT ITS AUGUST... BUT HEY, KEEP YOUR EYE ON THE PRIZE, STARING AT THAT FINISH LINE. THENNNNNN I CAN DO WHAT I WANT LOL. WORKS BEEN BUSY, BEEN RUNNING AROUND ALL THE TIME. JUST TODAY I WAS ALL OVER THE PLACE AND ITS ALSO HOT TOO... OH AND I WASNT EVEN IN MY OWN CAR CAUSE THATS IN THE SHOP FOR CHECK UP SOOO IM USING A COURTESY CAR AND DAM... ITS UMMM BEATED UP LOL. 

I CANT BELIEVE I HAVENT PARTIED LATELY!!! OMG!!! ITS UNBELIEVABLE!!! JUST PARTIED OUT... FOR NOW I GUESS HAHA. ALSO GOTTA FOCUS ON WHAT I NEED TO GET DONE RIGHT NOW. I GUESS THATS WHY THERES NOT MUCH TO WRITE ABOUT... WELL THERE ARE TOPICS I WANNA WRITE ABOUT BUT MEH YOU KNOW... LOL MAYBE IL WRITE IT AFTERALL LOLOLOL. ACTUALLY I THINK I WROTE ABOUT THIS ALREADY... OR ON SOME SIMILAR LINE. WELL IL JUST SAY IT AGAIN THEN :) THE THINGS YOU DO IN LIFE IS ALWAYS A TRADE OFF. EITHER TO DO THIS OR TO DO THAT. TO GET THIS OR TO GET THAT. ALWAYS ALWAYS ALWAYS. LIKE RIGHT NOW WELL IM TRADING OF PARTYING AND HAVING FUN TO STUDY AND PASS MY LICENSING... WHICH LEADS TO LOTS OF FUTURE PARTYING LOL. SOME TRADE OFF HAPPINESS FOR MONEY AND OTHERS TRADE OFF TIME FOR OTHERS. EVERYTHING IN LIFE IS A TRADE OFF. IT JUST DEPENDS WEATHER OR NOT YOU ARE TRADING OFF THE RIGHT THING FOR THE OTHER. WHICH LEADS ME TO ASK CAN YOU REALLY HAVE IT ALL??? I THINK SO... I MEAN PERSONALLY I WOULD NEVER SETTLE. WHO WOULD? AND I SUGGEST YOU NEVER SETTLE EITHER. YOU DESERVE THE BEST SO WHY NOT REACH FOR IT. IT MIGHT TAKE YOU LONGER THAN EXPECTED BUT SOONER OR LATER, EVENTUALLY IT WILL APPEAR BEFORE YOU, IF YOU HAVE THE DRIVE AND WANT FOR IT. THATS WHAT HAPPENED TO ME, I GOT TO ONE POINT IN MY LIFE WHERE I WANT. WITH THAT SAID ALWAYS KEEP MOVING FORWARD, ALWAYS KEEP SEARCHING, NEVER GIVE UP, NEVER SURRENDER :) SO I GUESS I DID END UP TALKING ABOUT IT HAHA.
