Excursion Day! (Day 61: 4/30/10)
What's the good news?
Hi! I had a very long day out exploring our nation's capital with Heyer, my sister, and another friend. It was a lot of fun. We went to the Museum of Natural History, and the monument, and the zoo, even though the animals were gone for the day already. There was lots of exercise, and fond memories of riding the subway train.
We had a very interesting start, missed the proper exit, then ended up near the city, where we missed the OTHER exit, and then we were lost for a good bit of time before calling and asking for help from our parents. I felt the frustration of everyone in the car, but it was strange, I was seriously not feeling it. I was laughing inside. Mainly because I felt like it was an adventure. It was fun to me. That was the best part of the whole day to me, getting lost. I saw lots of stuff and was having a good time. But everyone else was letting it get to them so I guess we had to get on the right track. Haha
I really wish we'd had more time today. I got a chance to remember why I was friends with those guys in the first place, and that really means something to me because I have been drawing away from people a lot recently. Good times, good times.
I guess all I have to look forward to now is a wonderful day at work and a much needed, and much wanted good night's rest! I may not post tomorrow, depending on how exhausted I am. So if not, I will talk to you on Sunday!!!

Day 60! (Day 60:4/29/10)
What is the good news?
Hello all! HAPPY DAY 60! I am so very sleepy! But I refuse to miss a post on this lucky lucky day 60. So without further ado, let's go through the report.
1)Enjoy being physically active.
2)Enjoy healthy foods.
3)Gain and love a unique, fun, flirty fashion sense.
4)Have the ability to afford all the material wants, yet still be able to save for the future.
5)Make friends who are supportive, positive, like-minded, and honest.
6)Proudly receive all A's in all of my classes.
1) This is one that I am most proud about currently! I have been exercising AT LEAST 3 times a week, which is far more than I'm used to. I feel energized and good after work outs. I usually do almost 2 miles with several reps of push up, situps, and other things like that. I have been keeping track of it all on the Presidential Fitness website. It's a lot of fun and I am also learning the choreography from Janet Jackson's "All for you" which is great exercise. I am enjoying the greatness of an active lifestyle.
2) I really like fruit!
3) I have been asking around my girlfriends for fashion advice, and they have agreed to help me out, which is awesome!
4) So a lot has been going on with my job. As school dwindles down, I will have a lot more time to go work, and I already have been working more hours because of the woman who quit. This week another of my co-workers has gone to get surgery so i have been working a lot a lot, which would explain why the posts have been pretty short. I really do feel like I can afford everything. I am just waiting for my new financial aid thingy to come in, so I can get started on that.
5) I haven't really made any new friends lately. But I have been reconnecting with older friends from the past a lot lately. It's pretty good to find out what everyone has been up to. I feel a lot more confident now. So I don't necessarily feel like I NEED to make friends. It's all good.
6)MUST I SAY ANYTHING? ALL A's!!!!

As the Semester End draws near... (Day 59: 4/28/20)
What's the good news?
As anticipated, I ACED my last Bio test and I'm exempt from the final! I actually got 114 points out of 110! How cool is that? Also, I have done the math from my other classes and I know that I will have A's for those class! It won't be long before my new classes start, and I will be acing those as well.
I've been called into work a lot more this week and lately, meaning that I am making more money, which coincides with another of my goals! I am in the state of allowance, and it feels so good! I am excited about transferring in the fall. I'll be able to afford it all and I will be entering a new atmosphere with confidence and happiness. It's all so very great.
Day 60 is tomorrow, so there will be a nice report. I have fun adventure plans for Friday, so stick with me, it's going to be an exciting weekend!!

How Now Brown Cow (Day 58: 4/27/10)
What's the good news?
Hey everyone! Really happy to report that the confident walk I achieved a few days ago is still present and getting stronger each time. I am enjoying not feeling self-conscious when others see me out and about. I smile and keep on my way instead of putting my head down and rounding my shoulders. My back and posture are thanking the self-hypnosis as well!
You know something? Today I had a very interesting epiphany. It involves worrying about what others think of you. It all started on the way to my class today. I caught site of a dude in a car. Now I don't know if he was REALLY someone I recognized, or just looked like someone I recognized, but that doesn't matter. It spawned a series of memories of this guy who when we were younger, was my sometimes acquaintance. I remember that he talked to me sometimes in middle school and the conversation was pleasant. But then one day I'm not really sure why, but he lashed out at me verbally, and I stayed away from him ever since. I guess you could say that I had been forming some kind of a crush on him and I was entirely hurt by his words, so I felt rejected even though he had no clue that I liked him.
Then came high school, and suddenly he was in a new crowd of people. None of this really matters to what I'm getting at here. Bottom line, I had a thought. "Oh if he would just see me now, how pretty I've become, how smart and sophisticated. How articulate I've become. I'm such a different person and he would be attracted to me"
I stopped. A voice entered my head from direction right, I swear, and it said to me, "Maybe there is a specific girl he is attracted to. Maybe you aren't her. Why do you REALLY wonder about if he were to see you now? Do you really want him to like and be attracted to you? Really?"
And I realized, that all I really felt was a want of social acceptance. I realized that I only wanted him to realize the changes that I've made for myself. It wasn't long before I concluded that these thoughts weren't productive. I have been building up this confidence for a long time and yet I still need social acceptance? Nu uh. I am on a mission to accept me. What other people think of me is neither relevant or important. As CharmingPixieFlora says, "What others think of you is none of your business" and I believe that this is so true.
So get out of other people's head and listen to what's within your own! That is my advice for today. Follow it, or do as you see fit. Either way, strive to do what? FEEL GOOD NOW. As I do, and as do all the others who are creating their own realities and living actively with fantastic and great results.
We've made it so far, let's not stop now!!!!

Self-Hypnosis (Day 56: 4/25/10)
What's the good news?
So real quick because I have a buttload (is it okay to say buttload? haha) of stuff toget done for tomorrow and it's already 11.
I just wanted to tell you about something that I have been trying for the past couple of nights and how it's working. I have been trying self-hypnosis/binaural beats every night before I go to sleep. I particularly have been using videos on Youtube that are geared towards building confidence. I have been using them every night WHILE I go to sleep for the past 3 or 4 nights. How pleasant! I know I can't just jump off the bridge and yell: IT WORKS! But well....
Let's just say the past few days there has been more pep in my step. I've noticed that I walk with my head held high, and my posture a lot straighter when I address or am addressed by other people. It's pretty cool. I am going to continue for a little while and then report on it for a more accurate review of it.
If you're having trouble sleeping, I suggest trying the binaural beats. Strangely enough, they are calming and if you lie still, you'll be sleep before you know it!
If there's something that you actually want to fix inside, let's say "re-program" in your brain, I suggest self-hypnosis. There are a lot of videos on Youtube for many different things. You can find self-hypnosis videos for confidence, creativity, sleep, de-stressing, weight loss...there's a lot of them. So if you are in wanting, give it a try!
Plus there's always guided meditations, which are just as good, but I don't recommend you doing it when you're sleepy. You don't want to fall asleep when you are meditating, as opposed to hypnosis etc. etc.
I bet there's something there for you if you really want, go ahead and give it a looksee.
On that note, I wish you a pleasant night, and a pleasant tomorrow.

Morning Gardening (Day 55: 4/24/10)
What's the good news?
Hey, I found another technique that is really good for focus and concentration. Gardening! You pretty much get the same effects you do as when you are meditating. Or at least, I did. It was a lot of fun and it was so so calming.
Pretty much I dug up a few things, and moved a lot of stuff around. I planted my Moon Flowers and Sunflowers. I also planted some Sage and Thyme. I hope that it wasn't too soon to do it. I plan on planted my other stuff next week. I hope everything goes well. I have never been serious about gardening but this year I have this sudden interest in it. I mean come on, helping create life, nurturing it and watching it grow? I say, all of those 13 years old prancing around on Maury Povich talkin' bout, "I wanna have a baby" and all that nonsense, ought to take up gardening....seriously.
And that's all I have to say about that.
I plan on doing more in my garden tomorrow morning, weather permitting. I need to go buy some more soil. Can't wait, can't wait!

Fun Day (Day 54: 4/23/10)
What's the good news?
Oh my, me! I just had a really great day. I relaxed, I cooked a fantabulous pot of chili that was enjoyed by those I love, and I got some neat gardening tips!
I started off my day by getting business out of the way. I think that is a great way to begin. I mean, with that out of the way, you can have fun the rest of the day without worrying about having to get it done!
It was such a glorious day! I had a great time blasting my music and letting the wind carry my soul to amazing heights in the car. No worries here, no worries.
I just looked over and saw an old journal that I have and want to dispose of. Any ideas? I personally want to burn it, but I have no idea how to do that without A) Getting in trouble and B) Attracting much unwanted attention. It's one of the many things I found while cleaning that has to do with a love that died. I hung on to it solely for the purpose of wanting to have some Epic Monumental Disposal Ceremony. (I'm like that. Whenever I want to start something new, or end something, it must be a BIG DEAL)
I know I gotta get it done soon though. I think it might be a negative entity on my persona and plans and all that. OOH! Maybe I can bury it!!!! I dunno. If you have any ideas, shoot them by me. I might make a video out of the purpose! Yay! I really want it to be huge to show that I have finally moved on! I can't wait!
So how was your day? Let me know because I think you are very interesting and I want to know how you are doing.

Check this out! (Day 53: 4/22/10)
What's the good news?
Did everyone have a fantastic Earth Day? I know I did. I had a really good day at school because everything was calm and mellow. Then I got out early, so I could go home and squeeze in a quick workout before I took a nap and then went to work.
So I wanted to share you with this AWESOME meditation that I found last night while looking for self-hypnosis and guided meditations. It is so cool, I have to admit. It is about contacting an angel called Francesca who makes dreams come true. Even if you do not believe in angels and the like, this is a VERY good visualization tool for the Law of Attraction.
So if you've got a minute, try it out. Find a comfy position, put on your headphones, relax and let the video guide you through it all.
Here's the link:

*I am not claiming to own the video and all credit should go to whoever it belongs to. I am just passing it along. If the video is your property and you do not wish it linked up here, just contact me and I will remove it.*
Anywho, have a great, night, and tomorrow! I have many things to do, so I am excited to let you know how it all turns out!

Stress Fest (Day 52: 4/21/10)
Hey, what's the good news?
I have to admit that yesterday was a stressful day. Paperwork piled up, I had business regarding school to take care of, and I sort of felt backed into a corner.
What do you do when you feel stress? It's definitely not beneficial to your Law of Attraction process. I could feel the negativity simmering below the surface, and I needed it to go away.
I decided to keep up my activeness and went down to my basement to do some exercise. The hour I spent learning Janet Jackson dance moves went by pretty quick, and I actually felt the stress disappearing.
Who knew that exercise is a good way to take your mind off of things??? Well I'm pretty sure a lot of people already know this...but I am excited to report that it is true! It's pretty fool-proof. If you don't want to spend time doing de-stressing techniques, or you aren't comfortable meditating, I recommend taking a walk/jog or doing some form of involved physical activity.
The fun part is that after doing that yesterday, this morning when I woke up I felt renewed and amazingly, every single issue that I was stressing about yesterday got resolved within the first 5 hours of my day. Great stuff.
This is more prove that we have already manifested anything that we could ever want. The important part is stepping out of the way to let it happen. My stressing about it all actually kept me from getting anything done, and I was not in a state of allowing. As soon as I focused on something else and started to feel good again, stuff happened. I am proud of myself for realizing my state of disallowing and making the conscious decision to not mope and instead did something about it.
I have school and work tomorrow, and I anticipate what a good day it will be! Tomorrow is Earth Day, I am hoping to give something back to my home in honor of the many things that are provided to me.
I wonder, what are you doing for Earth Day?
Are you going to plant a tree? Are you going to pick up trash? Recycle something? Whatever you do, I am sure that it will make an impact on this wonderfulness that we call home. I wish that for more than myself, Earth Day could be everyday. There doesn't have to be a designated day where we can just stop and think outside of ourselves for a few minutes. Say "Thank you" for the planet that you live on and the many opportunities that are presented to you. Even if you feel like you don't have much, it could always be a lot worse. Just the fact that you are reading this is prove enough that you are fortunate. Internet is a luxury my friend, and you are blessed to have the opportunity to use it. I know I am.
And think about how this will work for you in the long run. Remember when I talked about the importance of gratitude? If you are grateful for something, you are appreciating. When you are in appreciation, you feel good. According to the teachings of Abraham, it is impossible to feel happy and sad/mad/whathaveyou at the same time. You just can't do it. It's an either/or kind of thing. (And I think i understand. I mean we can claim that we are happy and sad at the same time, but what we really feel is sadness, we just are aware that there is something positive there. Or we are happy but aware of the possibility of unfortunate circumstances in the situation.)
So just take a moment tomorrow and be thankful for something. It can be anything. It's going to help you out.
Have a happy Earth Day tomorrow, and smile!

Are you going to plant a tree? Are you going to pick up trash? Recycle something? Whatever you do, I am sure that it will make an impact on this wonderfulness that we call home. I wish that for more than myself, Earth Day could be everyday. There doesn't have to be a designated day where we can just stop and think outside of ourselves for a few minutes. Say "Thank you" for the planet that you live on and the many opportunities that are presented to you. Even if you feel like you don't have much, it could always be a lot worse. Just the fact that you are reading this is prove enough that you are fortunate. Internet is a luxury my friend, and you are blessed to have the opportunity to use it. I know I am.
And think about how this will work for you in the long run. Remember when I talked about the importance of gratitude? If you are grateful for something, you are appreciating. When you are in appreciation, you feel good. According to the teachings of Abraham, it is impossible to feel happy and sad/mad/whathaveyou at the same time. You just can't do it. It's an either/or kind of thing. (And I think i understand. I mean we can claim that we are happy and sad at the same time, but what we really feel is sadness, we just are aware that there is something positive there. Or we are happy but aware of the possibility of unfortunate circumstances in the situation.)
So just take a moment tomorrow and be thankful for something. It can be anything. It's going to help you out.
Have a happy Earth Day tomorrow, and smile!

Working Out--The other one (Day 50: 4/19/10)
Huh? What's the good news?
IT'S THE 50TH DAY!!!!!! That's good news all on it's own!
So excited! I began the day with an hour long workout that gave me so much energy! A tip to those of you with an unwanted caffeine addiction: exercise in the morning! It gives you energy and it works your muscle groups so you can get healthy and fit! Apples help too.
I was so proud of my self after walking briskly for not one, but 2 miles! In between the two miles I did a few reps of push ups, sit ups, and lunges. My muscles are yelling at me right now, but I think in the morning I will be just as ready to do it again!
So congratulations for getting to day 50! I am very grateful that you have stuck with us all this time. Already 50 days in and I know that my life is changed forever. There is no doubt in my mind that I will continue this long after this 100 Days is up! I will probably take about a week's break from blogging to gather more info and refocus, and then I will be starting SEASON 2 100 Day Challenge.
I'm not to sure if Heyer will be joining me for Season 2 because, well in case you haven't noticed, he has fallen behind in his blogging. Haha, he's busy and everything. Let's just hope that he keeps himself in his state of allowance and not have to start over. I have heard of that happening before, where the person stops blogging and thus, they stop reflecting on their feelings and getting to manifest, and then they end up back where they began.
I doubt that will happen to him though. In any case, let's wish him luck on whatever busy journey he is on and hope that he can blog for us some more soon!
I'm not going to do a list of what I have manifested, because I just did that a little while ago, and I do that every 20 days. But I cannot express to you enough how exciting it is to see where I have come from and know where I'm headed. I will probably be heading to the library on Wednesday, so I can get some more boos to suggest. I have put off reading a little bit recently because of school and work. I'm going to put my foot forward and get back on that. I'm sure that you will like that :)
Happy Day 50! Let's celebrate tonight! Not just because we've dedicated ourselves to creating our own realities for 50 days, but simply just because we feel good on this very day. in this point in time. Let's celebrate 50 days of being happy!

Working out--Literally (Day 49: 4/19/10)
What's the good news?
Whoa! We're almost at Day 50 of this Season's 100 Day Challenge! So exciting. I guess tomorrow will be a super post!
Meanwhile, today was a great day. I woke up with a plan, and by the time the sun was down, I was in my own good grace's. I got to work on time, and safely. (Thank you) I got friendly attention from fellow employees. (Nothing sexual, just I like people to recognize me and know I'm alive is all :D) I managed to get through a harsh amount of work with a joyous smile on my face. I just loved this day. The gardening pots that I have been given arrived today, with much thanks to the original owner. I plan to get it going Tuesday when I don't have class and work. So exciting!
On days like these I tend to worry if I will have an interesting enough blog post. I mean, if all is going well, and all keeps going well, it's possible that readers will get tired reading, "Today was an awesome day--I love everything!"
I believe I should put more articles of using the Law of Attraction up. With summer coming, that's a definite possibility. I won't be running everywhere quite as much, so I will have more time to read. So I'll be getting on that!
Thanks for reading. I hope your day was as great as mine was, and if not, then let's put good vibrations into feeling great tomorrow!

Stop reading FML! (Day 48: 4/17/10)
What's the good news?
I don't know if I have talked about this already, but I feel the need to speak about it today because it is important. Today I overheard someone talking about a few mishaps that happened to them, and at the end of their rant came the dooming statement, FML.
If you don't know what that means, it is interwebs speak for F*** My Life. I don't really know where it started, and I don't really care. It's dangerous for people who want to create their reality.
There is a whole website dedicated to the term, where people write about crappy things that happen to them, and other people read them. I used to read FML's every single day. It's starts off something like. "I think they are funny because it's not happening to me" and then it goes to, "I had a sucktastic day so I am going to read about bad things happening to other people so that I can feel better about myself" and then sooner or later it becomes, "I know exactly what that person is going through...I feel bad for them. I feel bad for myself."
Just stop it. Even if you are just reading it now because you think it is funny. Let me tell you something, just because it isn't happening to you doesn't really mean that it CAN'T happen to you. You are letting negativity into your life just by reading it, and thus putting you in line for the kinds of stuff that you are laughing about.
You don't need it. If you need something to laugh about, find a funny joke website, or think about something that makes you laugh. I watch Family Guy when I want to laugh.
For a more productive alternative, there are websites that act as the opposite of FML. Try GMH (Gives me Hope: http://www.givesmehope.com/) or YML (Yay My life: yaymylife.com)
I admit that sometimes the stories seem unrealistic, but they do a lot more good than FML.
I remember back when I decided to stop reading FML. I actually remember that when I read it every day religiously, that was when I was going through my depression. I'm not going to say that when I stopped reading it, my life got all happy and dandy, but there was a HUGE difference in the way I did stuff. I stopped saying, "This and this happened. FML" and instead I would start saying, "WOW, This happened! Yay! I love my life!"
It's a huge difference.
If you are an avid reader of the site FML, or you catch yourself saying things like FML or my life sucks, or whatever, I challenge you to change that up. Focus on what is good to you, and celebrate it each time. Watch what happens when you switch from Ugh, to YAY!

That wasn't so bad! (Day 47: 4/16/10)
What's the good news?
I did the physical fitness this morning! Ignoring the actual results, I feel very proud of myself for going through with it! It would have been so easy to just flip back over and say, "ehh I'll do it next week", but I took the initiative got it done.
When it came time to do the mile, things didn't go like I was used to. Before stepping up to the task, I said, I am going to finish this with energy and be proud for doing so. It happened. Back in the day when I had to do this for school, I remember feeling like I was going to die when I had to do the mile. It would take me all class period long, and I was be exhausted for the rest of the day. Today, I got the mile done in about 18 minutes, I didn't lose my breath, I felt great afterward. It was a joy. I even went out afterward and spent the rest of the day with my sis enjoying some funny funny movies and having a great time. I never felt tired. Not once.
I got a very high score on my Flexibility test. I am apparently very flexible. This isn't really all that new, since I have always been pretty flexible. I was excited to see I score 95 percentile in Flexibility.
I just need to work on the Aerobic and Strength area. I'm not even worried about the weight portion. Once again, weight is irrelevant to me. It's all about the actual health. I suppose tomorrow will be my first day of taking the initiative to get active. I'm starting that program where I exercise for at least 30 minutes a day, 5 days a week for 6 weeks. I'm excited to get started. I love the choices that I am making and I can't wait to see the results that I will ring in.
Can't I just say THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU to the universe for all of this that I am able to achieve and yet, still have the capacity to hope and wish for more. It is a blessing and I enjoy every day of it.
So are you feeling it too? Strap on the tennis shoes with me and let's sing "Go the Distance" til we get there!

Thirsty Thursday (Day 46: 4/15/10)
What's the good news?
AH! So excited and nervous about tomorrow! I know that I will do well on my Physical Fitness test. I actually have to step on a scale, it'll be the first time since January. I wonder what it'll say. I don't think I am going to look though, I'll just have my sis record it. I don't feel like weight is all that important actually. What's important is the health behind the weight, right? Besides, if we were on the moon, it would be 100% different.
If I weight different on the moon, and different on Mars, and different on Neptune, I do believe then that weight is very unnecessary. But I will do it for the sake of the test ^_^. Who knows? I may have lost or gained weight since January. I still feel awesome either way.
I have much much to do tomorrow, so I am very psyched about it all! I hope to get a lot done, and at the same time feel relaxed and comfortable because it is my rest day from school and work.
Now that I think about it, this semester is actually coming to a close very soon. I have A's in all of my classes. That's just awesome. I'm not finished yet though. I've got summer classes immediately following, and then when those end, I'll be at my new school. I probably won't get a long vacation from school until next summer. I actually like that idea though. This way I can stay busy and keep my mind going. What do you think about it?

Full Speed Ahead (Day 45: 4/14/10)
Hey peoples, what's the good news?
Not that much to say today! Had too much fun getting back to feeling comfortable and happy. I didn't do very much, other than take a sudden interest in cooking chili and watching a new tv show. I feel a lot better than I did the other day. I will be getting the pots for my herbal container garden soon, and I plan on helping my mother do yard work on possibly Friday. I will be very active this weekend, which is exactly what I had in mind.
I want to get so active the summer. I feel happy when I think about exercising and am inspired to get moving! I'm not going to push myself though, I find that it will be better for me to find things I enjoy rather than strapping up the tennis's and hitting the track. It'll be fun. It will be much funner if I can get people to do it with me. My sis will probably be on board, and maybe I can convince other friends to join in.
I might do some vids on it, who knows? I am having lots of fun with this!

What to Do? (Day 44: 4/13/10)
What's the good news?
So today I was approached by a friend of mine on a tough issue. I won't share his personal issues with, but I can say that he is in a state of sadness.
I don't really have much to say today because my mind has been wrapped around what I could tell him to help him feel better. I know that we cannot heal or save others, but I do know that when my friends come to me, I try my best to help them realize the road toward happiness, whether they take it or not is completely up to them.
I am very unsure of what to tell him though. I know that sadness is a lot harder to deal with than anger. I just wish I could tell him to be angry, and then work his way up through emotions from there. Anger is easier than sadness. When you are angry you feel like you blame others, she feel like you could keep the actual hurt from being in your heart. Versus feeling sad, sadness is like a feeling of lost hope. When you are sad, you feel you have lost something. Losing something (sadness) is a different feeling altogether than having something taken from you (anger). It's easier to be angry because you can a lot faster regain that feeling of hope. You just have to have the right things in place for you.
But he can't be mad, only sad. My heart goes out to him. Sadness can shake a person. It can turn into depression.
I remember for me, when I found out that my boyfriend of almost 3 years had moved on and met someone and in a nutshell, forgot I existed. I was so sad. I cried about it and fretted for days. I started to think that something was wrong with me, I thought that I wasn't good enough. I mean, hey, he didn't even view me worthy enough of breaking up with me, something must have been wrong with me. That kind of thinking, mixed into an environment that wasn't exactly healthy, and feelings of loneliness actually spiraled me into about a half year of depression. Tough times. But you know what? After depression cam anger. I blamed him, I blamed the other girl, eventually I blamed myself. I blamed so many people for such a failed relationship.
Feeling angry about it was the best thing I could have done for myself. Why? Because from there I felt acceptance of what happened. Accepting it all allowed me to realize the truth of it all. The truth that he wasn't for me, that it wasn't a particularly healthy relationship, that I could, and WOULD, pick myself up and move on. I could feel the hope again. Then from there, I learned to let go.
So I just really want him to know that no matter where you are in life, there is always another step up. Then from there, there is another one. It doesn't stop. Once you get to happy, you just keep getting better and better.
No matter what, we are always in a state of now. This I have learned from the Abraham Hicks books. Right now, he probably does not feel to good. But I bet if he can find just one thing to feel good about, that will spawn a good feeling for the next moment of life. Abraham mentions that for something to affect your manifestations, you need only focus upon it for 17 seconds. So maybe I should tell him that.
In the end, I just want him to not be sad. To be happy. But the truth is that I can't make that happen for him. Only he can. The only person that I answer to is myself. The hard thing is feeling sympathy for him without empathizing with him. I am working on this. I have to find that balance to where I can feel comfortable helping him out, without feeling his emotions.
Wish me luck.

That's better (Day 43: 4/12/10)
What's the good news?
Since last night's post, I have been feeling amazing. I have renew the faith that I have in myself, and most importantly, I'm back to feeling happy. I jammed in my car today and had a great day at work and school. I got a good grade on a paper, and I am just so excited about feeling great again.
My favorite male Korean singer put out a new album recently and I get to drool over his awesomeness once again. I haven't been listening to Kpop much lately, so it is fun to look back and see what they've been putting out since I kind of shifted away.
My plants are growing! Pretty soon I'm going to be putting them outside. I would love to show you pictures. Hmm, now I think that's all that I had to share with you today. It's short, I know, but today was another one of those short, fun, blissful days where even the littlest of things bring about joy and laughter.
I feel so blessed to have days like these. I anticipate more.
Oh! A quick shout out to my dad! Congratulations on your retirement! You've worked so hard!

Retrospect and this day that won't end (Day 42: 4/11/10)
What's the good news?
Hi all, chatting with you live again from my bedroom. I just want to say, here's how you know I am authentic here. I am not offering you the world of knowledge through my know-all and be-all step by step procedure here. I am sharing with you what I am experiencing these 100 days, hoping that it might inspire you to give it a go. (Because it works, and you can have it work in your favor) It takes time. I realized that today as I went through a day full of negativity, resulting in feeling very sad.
It goes all back to yesterday. If you didn't read my previous post, I went out clubbing and, yes I had a good time. But I felt like the confidence I had been building all this time just left me right when I needed it. I felt the old, shy me take over, and I didn't let myself have the amount of fun I could have. These thoughts kept plaguing me all day and I felt the spiral. Oh, you nasty spiral, you. I didn't want to go to work, and then I ended up getting stuck in abominable traffic, and while in traffic I was being made fun of by a bunch of misfits in a nice looking car. Then I got to work and many many people were there, and there was just so much to do. One thing, after the next, and all I had to do was stop focusing on how embarrassed I felt about yesterday. I couldn't let it go, and it showed in a big way.
I'm not going to say that I wish I could go back to last night and do it all again, because I do not. I want to be right where I am, right now. I recognize the problem and I am determined to fix it, and after a pep talk from a very positive influence in my life, a mentor if you will, I realized something.
That confidence never left me. Sure I work so hard to build it, and it wasn't at a level that I may have expected it to be, but thinking back, would I have even GONE to the club in the first place a year ago? No. Would I have gone 42 days ago? Probably not. If I had, would I have even set foot on that dance floor? Absolutely not. I know exactly what I would have done. I would have jokingly done goofy moves once or twice before finding a nice spot on the wall to make best friends with.
I should be proud of myself--I AM proud of myself for what I did yesterday/this morning. (haha) This is once of those "slow cooker" moments that Shay Carl talks about in vlogs. Time and pressure. That's all I need to get where I'm headed with this. I can go back and be myself, let loose and dance the night away without a care in the world of who's watching me! I just need to build more confidence onto the stockpile of confidence that I already have going for me.
So there's a new goal for myself. I choose to turn the how and the when over to the universe. I don't have a clue when and how I will gain the confidence to go back out there and show myself what I've got, but it doesn't matter. I already have it, see? It's mine for the taking and now all I need to do is sit back and allow it to happen. Meaning I have to believe it is mine. So I will, so I do.
As for this less than perfect day I've had, well it made me realize how much more I need to delve into Releasing strategies. If I had the proper releasing technique today, this morning, I probably would have had a much better day. So I am off to find out more about releasing techniques. I even thought about making up some of my own while at work today. It gave me an idea for a HUGE project, that will take lots of time, help, and possibly money? I will wait and see how that unfolds. You'll be first to know what's going to happen with it, promise.
On that note, I feel so much better now. Despite the icky day, despite the strands of feeling embarrassed, despite whatever. First, that pep talk really cheered me up, and blogging to you is the cherry on top. I feel renewed and honored to share all of this with whoever may read it. I stopped living in whatever happened yesterday, and instead I choose to be happy right now. Blogging is officially my happy place!
Thanks for reading!
I am off to meditate to refocus on what I'm heading for!

I DROPPED THE BALL! (Day 41: 4/10/10)
***This was typed at 4 in the morning, so it might be a little loopy***
Hey everyone.
This is coming late, I know, but better late than never right? I shall explain. My pal asked me to go clubbing with him! I have never gone clubbing before, so that was awesome. We did go, and I danced!
I dropped the ball.
I wasn't very confident out there. I kept beating myself up about it on the ride home. On my way out of the car my friend said to me, "Next time dance better." and I think that was when I wanted to cry. I AM a great dancer, I love dancing. But apparently I did not dance well?
I think this is where the blog gets real, if you haven't thought it real yet. Here comes the struggle. Rome wasn't built in a day; this creating your own reality takes some time to get used to. I just need to work at it.
I want to go back. I want to prove to myself that I can do it. And I CAN!

Friday (Day 40: 4/9/10)
What's the good news?
Hi all. Today was just a fun day that I spent hanging around with my sister. We had a good time joking around and walking in the mall. Saw my pal Heyer today as well.
Seeing as how it is DAY 40, I will go ahead and reflect on all of the manifestations that have transpired since Day 20.
1)Enjoy being physically active.
2)Enjoy healthy foods.
3)Gain and love a unique, fun, flirty fashion sense.
4)Have the ability to afford all the material wants, yet still be able to save for the future.
5)Make friends who are supportive, positive, like-minded, and honest.
6)Proudly receive all A's in all of my classes.
For Number 1:
I have been getting a little more active. I take walks with my sister around town on some Fridays, and I have a new interest in the Presidential Fitness program. I am willing to give it a go, so hopefully I can get a buddy to join me. If not, I am still going to try. More to come soon!
For number 2:
Good stuff! While my like for less-than-healthy foods has not yet completely vanished, I have greatly noticed my boredom with them. I find myself craving foods that are very different from the usual stuff that I eat. Which is a good thing. I want more vegetables, and I always always want to drink water as opposed to juice or soda. I actually feel more thirsty than hungry most days. I haven't weighed myself in a very long time. I don't really plan to, I imagine that whatever weight I am right now is the perfect one.
For number 3:
I have been way more conscious about the clothes I wear now. Not much to say here. I can picture myself in many different cute outfits. A feel cute and confident when I go out! It's great!
For number 4:
My co-worker officially quit last week. I have been working more hours on the weekends. Also, my other co-worker has informed me that I will soon be getting a raise! So exciting! I am thinking about selling some of my stuff that I want to get rid of from my spring cleaning. My textbooks will definitely be sold after thus semester. I am so happy now that I have been able to let go of objects I no longer need. I will be selling them, thus getting some money back. Things are looking up! Perhaps soon I will be able to afford my own place!
For number 5:
I have been speaking to a lot of my friends that I thought forgot about me a long time ago! Old acquaintances have been showing up left and right. Also, I have been in contact with some high school friends. I have been talking to a lot more people in school, and I feel comfortable when I am social. Going along with my social confidence, when I get called on for class discussion, I in no way feel completely distraught and embarrassed. I feel confident, and enjoy discussing with my teachers and classmates. I feel intelligent and proud.
For number 6:
Most exciting of all! I KNOW I have an A in ALL of my classes and it WILL stay that way! My classes are so easy for me, and I enjoy them. I feel confident about each test that I take. I feel happy and excited to get the tests back and see the high scores written across the top!
It is only Day 40 of 100 days that I am exactly where I wanted to be when I started this! I will probably be expanding on all of my goals because I know everything is going great and it won't be much longer until I am completely satisfied. I'll have leftover days. Now I REALLY want to have fun with it.
I am really rooting for a fun new relationship with a guy my age soon. There have been hints at it recently. I've been getting a lot of compliments for older men, but I am putting my focus on guys my age now. I would like to go out and have fun, do young people stuff like going to amusement parks and fairs for dates, and going out to the movies. Sounds like lots of fun!
We'll see! Hope on this Day 40, you are in total Manifestation Mode as I am! Let us know where you are!!

Good Grades! (Day 39: 4/8.10)
That was weird, it posted by itself without the entry. Now let's just try that again...
What's the good news?
I hope you had a splendid day, as I did! My good news is that I aced my art history test, just as I envisioned it. The fun and dangerous part is that I really did not study for it, and I REALLY did not know the answers! But as I sat down to take it, I said to myself, "This is MY A. This paper is my A and I will have the right answers to get the A"
I only missed four questions out of maybe 40? And I gained points back for an extra credit question. It's so very exciting!

Health stuff! (Day 38: 4/7/10)
What's the good news?
So I was thinking today about how healthy I would like to become. You've seen on my vision board how I want to enjoy eating food that is good for me and lead an active and fun life style.
So I looked around for a believable and reasonable starting place and came to the President's Physical Fitness website. I found some good stuff on there that I am willing to give a try, but that's not really what I am going to talk about today. Perhaps tomorrow?
While looking around there, I came across health warnings and realized something. I have not been to the doctor in a long, long time! Like a serious long time. Sort of, kind of like when you leave high school, your parents don't really pay attention to whether you go or not, and you don't really care as long as there's nothing wrong with you.
Also, I have grown an almost certain dislike of all medical stuffs as of recently, mostly because I have somewhat inherited my grandfather's hypochondria, and whenever I DID go to the doctor, they would say that there's nothing wrong with me. So I have taken to doing home remedies that have more effects. (I'm not advocating anything here, read on!)
But I do realize the importance of getting at least a yearly check up. So I am not taking the initiative to go see a doctor (only to have him tell me I am in tip top shape! which for once in my life I will appreciate!). This will be my first step into focusing in on growing love and appreciation for my body. Well sort of. I've already taken about two years gaining confidence and appreciation about the way I look, and realizing just how beautiful I am. But now it is time to start taking better care of it.
So let's do this! I'm trying to get Heyer to do a physical fitness test with me so we know where we stand before we start getting a move on. Literally. Ha!
If you're interested in joining us, feel free to let us know and we will work out a support system!
On that note, I am going to leave you with a thought. How do you feel about your body? How long did it take you to work up that current perception? What factors lead to you thinking this?
I think that it is very important for each and everyone of us (,ale or female) to take time to look in a mirror and say, "what a beautiful fantastic me I am." take time to find the beautiful things about you. If you do that, you will appreciate yourself more. Then if you do that, you will want to take a lot better care of yourself. Then you will work at it, and soon realize that you have the body that you have always wanted and hoped for.
Do you agree?

Memories! (Day 37: 4/6/10)
What's the good news?
Boy am I sleepy. Woke up early so that I could Ace another Art test. (I know I did ^_^) I had a pretty good day at school today, and it is no surprise that the Earth has blessed us with such another beautiful day! I could used to this!
So I have memories today. I would love to share with you and explain what's going through my head on this amazing April evening!
Fair warning for those of you who aren't fans of romance. I am about to get real nostalgic and possibly mushy. I can't help it, I'm a girl! Haha! Anywho, yeah.
So I was relaxing in the library this morning, and a fellow walked by and made me think of this kid I had a crush on when I was younger. I remember it was one of those huge crushes you get when you were in elementary school when you are 100% sure that that boy is going to marry you, and you'll live happily ever after...just as soon as he realizes that girls are not icky.
Interesting subject, because I really haven't though about any of those little boys since I had my high school relationship that lasted almost 3 years. It's amazing how I just completely forgot about this guy, even though I liked him so much!
I met him in the 4th grade, I think. He had a lot of friends, but he wasn't a part of the escalating "popular crowd". I thought he was a cutey, and he picked on me, so I was sure he liked me too. Then I had him in homeroom again when I was in the 8th grade. There he was a little more withdrawn, but he still kind of picked on me. I didn't really have such a crush on him by that point, but there was always something special about him.
Have you ever met a person that you knew absolutely nothing about them, but at the same time, you felt like you knew their soul? Like you knew how the clockwork inside of them turned. I felt like that. I felt like even though we weren't really friends or anything, I felt like we were connected in some way. I didn't realize it then, but I can't deny it now. I felt so close to that boy, and didn't know one thing about him other than his name!
Realizing this, I decided to look his name up on facebook, you know, just to see if he was still around. You know, because most people you can't view their info unless you're friends with them. But amazingly, his was not the case. (I'm shocked he even HAS one.) I was reading his profile, and I felt that connection to him again, it was so amazing. I didn't add him, I don't feel like I need to, we don't really know each other, I mean we talked, we were acquaintances, but after middle school I never heard about him again. (And when I talk about this 'connection' with him, do not think I am stalking him or something. It's not that kind of connection. Perhaps I knew him in a past life or something. I think so.)
So the most awesome part of all this was his shout out to his girlfriend. He described her in such a cool way. The more I read, the bigger my grin got, and this to you I swear. I am pretty sure here that I am a changed woman! I mean, regardless of whether I still currently like someone or not, in the past if I caught wind of them have a happy relationship, I SWEAR I would go ape doo-doo. I would be so jealous. Either jealous because I still liked the guy, or jealous because he moved on and was happy without me. Now I just feel really happy for the other person. As with the case with this guy, I felt so unbelievably excited to read about how happy he is!
In short, letting go of bitterness is one of the best decisions I have ever made in my entire life.
You know, I have affirmed and decided to open myself to love every day, and by remembering this, I think I am doing just that. It took me such a long time to get over the bitterness I felt in my heart from my most recent relationship (and also my first serious relationship). Letting this guy control my life (whether either of us were aware he did or not) was completely eating me up inside.
I feel so absolutely blessed to have found a way to break free from all that. I haven't just forgiven him and myself, but now I feel so thankful for the many things I got from that relationship. I feel happy for him that he has love in his life. In doing so, I am inviting love into my own life. It feels great.
I really wish that I could meet that guy again. He's far away, so it is unlikely. But If I had the chance to speak face to face with him right now, I would hug him. I would tell him thank you, over and over again for helping me realize what I have and what I'm working myself toward. Memories of him, and catching up on him currently, has made me realize just how far I have come.
And it keeps getting better.

Fair warning for those of you who aren't fans of romance. I am about to get real nostalgic and possibly mushy. I can't help it, I'm a girl! Haha! Anywho, yeah.
So I was relaxing in the library this morning, and a fellow walked by and made me think of this kid I had a crush on when I was younger. I remember it was one of those huge crushes you get when you were in elementary school when you are 100% sure that that boy is going to marry you, and you'll live happily ever after...just as soon as he realizes that girls are not icky.
Interesting subject, because I really haven't though about any of those little boys since I had my high school relationship that lasted almost 3 years. It's amazing how I just completely forgot about this guy, even though I liked him so much!
I met him in the 4th grade, I think. He had a lot of friends, but he wasn't a part of the escalating "popular crowd". I thought he was a cutey, and he picked on me, so I was sure he liked me too. Then I had him in homeroom again when I was in the 8th grade. There he was a little more withdrawn, but he still kind of picked on me. I didn't really have such a crush on him by that point, but there was always something special about him.
Have you ever met a person that you knew absolutely nothing about them, but at the same time, you felt like you knew their soul? Like you knew how the clockwork inside of them turned. I felt like that. I felt like even though we weren't really friends or anything, I felt like we were connected in some way. I didn't realize it then, but I can't deny it now. I felt so close to that boy, and didn't know one thing about him other than his name!
Realizing this, I decided to look his name up on facebook, you know, just to see if he was still around. You know, because most people you can't view their info unless you're friends with them. But amazingly, his was not the case. (I'm shocked he even HAS one.) I was reading his profile, and I felt that connection to him again, it was so amazing. I didn't add him, I don't feel like I need to, we don't really know each other, I mean we talked, we were acquaintances, but after middle school I never heard about him again. (And when I talk about this 'connection' with him, do not think I am stalking him or something. It's not that kind of connection. Perhaps I knew him in a past life or something. I think so.)
So the most awesome part of all this was his shout out to his girlfriend. He described her in such a cool way. The more I read, the bigger my grin got, and this to you I swear. I am pretty sure here that I am a changed woman! I mean, regardless of whether I still currently like someone or not, in the past if I caught wind of them have a happy relationship, I SWEAR I would go ape doo-doo. I would be so jealous. Either jealous because I still liked the guy, or jealous because he moved on and was happy without me. Now I just feel really happy for the other person. As with the case with this guy, I felt so unbelievably excited to read about how happy he is!
In short, letting go of bitterness is one of the best decisions I have ever made in my entire life.
You know, I have affirmed and decided to open myself to love every day, and by remembering this, I think I am doing just that. It took me such a long time to get over the bitterness I felt in my heart from my most recent relationship (and also my first serious relationship). Letting this guy control my life (whether either of us were aware he did or not) was completely eating me up inside.
I feel so absolutely blessed to have found a way to break free from all that. I haven't just forgiven him and myself, but now I feel so thankful for the many things I got from that relationship. I feel happy for him that he has love in his life. In doing so, I am inviting love into my own life. It feels great.
I really wish that I could meet that guy again. He's far away, so it is unlikely. But If I had the chance to speak face to face with him right now, I would hug him. I would tell him thank you, over and over again for helping me realize what I have and what I'm working myself toward. Memories of him, and catching up on him currently, has made me realize just how far I have come.
And it keeps getting better.

Can't stress it ENOUGH! (Day 36: 4/5/10)
What's the good news?!
Okay, so wow....wow...WOW! What an amazing day this was! After not researching last night, I woke up with a paper in my head and it only took me an hour to let those words flow onto paper. I mean it. I was so sure I'd wake up and write that paper, stress-free. It happened.
I got yet another A on my Science Test. It's so exciting! I'm probably not going to have to take the Final! We talked about genetics today and I found the information came to me so easily. It's the same information that I have never understood before, but now I do. Can't beat that feeling when you suddenly get something you didn't get before!
The traffic today was horrendous. I did find myself slipping into slight frustration, but every time I caught it, and turned my attention elsewhere, the traffic eased up! At first I didn't think I would get to work on time, but I did.
I guess the important thing I have to remind you is to not just stay positive about things, but to feel good now! You can be positive all you want, but if you aren't feeling it, if you aren't feeling good, it's not doing anything for you.
I CANNOT STRESS THIS ENOUGH! STOP trying to make everything happen right now and focus in on how you feel! If you do not feel good, find a way to do so!
You see through my results what happens when you do.
Anywho, tomorrow I am charged with 2 tests and a quiz, so I must study. Though I know that I will ace them all, no stress. Good night!

Question (Day 35:4/4/10)
Hi Hi!
What's the good news?
Another wonderful day indeed! I managed to get my work done early, and got home early so that I could work on my paper due tomorrow. Nothing huge to share, and I don't have any lessons or anything...so I want to ask a question!
What is your favorite movie and why?
I assure there is more or less a reason for my asking. I will touch on it another time! Well this paper will not write itself! Or will it? Hahaha

What is that smell??? (Day 34: 4/3/10)
What's the good news?
Hi everyone! What a beautiful day this was! I relaxed before going to work. A new wave of good story ideas hit me hard while I was at work, so I am hoping to write them all down before I go to sleep so that I don't forget them all!
How was your day?
A funny thing happened at work today. There was a particular customer who came by and she had this, very loud scent to her. It was sooo strange because the scent was familiar. I found myself thinking about my great-grandmother who passed away last year. Has that ever happened to you? Have you ever smelled something that brought back so many memories of a person who has passed on?
Haha, I remember all the interesting things about my great-grandmother. How she kept plastic on her couches in her living room and kept the house hot so visitors would be all sweaty. Haha.
Anyway, I hope that you continue to enjoy the music, and have a great Sunday!

SURPRISE! Music! (Day 33: 4/2/10)
What's the good news!
Surprise! In case you haven't noticed yet, I have added a playlist to the sidebar of the blog for your enjoyment. Now, Delia, what's the big deal? Anyone can get a playlist, so what?
Well there is a point to this! I decided to post about it because it has been something on my mind for a while.
It all started about 10-15 days ago when I was jamming in the car like usual. A song came on and I did not hesitate to sing along because that's just what I do. But the more and more I paid attention to the lyrics, I kept thinking, "hmm, these lyrics aren't exactly positive..." and me being the person I am, I actually pick up the feeling of the song as I sing along (even if it's about anger or heartache).
That's not very productive to what I'm doing here. I mean, how on earth am I going to expect a boyfriend feeling/singing songs that have lyrics that go, "Why does love always feel like a battlefield?" How does one move on from past relationships with reminders of bitterness with songs like, "Gives you Hell" or "Bust the windows Out your car?"? I hate to say it, but every single time I hear Beyonce's "Single Ladies" I get the urge to throw stuff in my ex-boyfriend's face. That's not productive. At all. Why? That's because it is giving attention to the fact that yes, he hurt me, and for some odd reason, I want him to hurt like I did. What exactly is that going to do for me???
Seriously. Think about it, every time you wanted to get back at someone for something that they did to you. What would their pain, anger, irritation, what have you, what would that do for you? And don't kid me out with that, "Oh, I'd feel better." Really? Would you? Them feeling at odds is really going to take away that negative feeling you had, and apparently still have? Ah, that sounds a bit angry. Let me tone that down because I'm actually talking to myself here, haha. Anyway, here's my advice. Just let it go.
Furthermore, how on earth do you expect to have a gorgeous beautiful day with a song such as, "You had a bad day?" Don't get me wrong, these are all great songs, I actually like every song I have mentioned up to this point.
But what I am trying to say is that most of us love lyrics because we can relate to them in some way. They remind us of something that we have experienced, good or bad. So if we are attempting 100% at creating our own reality and living the good life, feeling good now, shouldn't we strive to only relate to things that feel good? Music, leisure reading, television, whatever? We should listen to music that makes us feel good. We should listen to music that helps us send positive vibrations out into the universe!
So that is what I did. You'll notice that there are only 17 songs, that's just what I am starting with. It's actually harder than I thought to find songs that didn't have some sort of negativity in it. The search continues! My goal was to find songs with both positive lyrics, AND songs that just plain feel good. Hope you like it!
Oh, and I tried to find a little bit of everything because I know that different people listen to different things. I actually love all of these songs, haha. By the way, yes, I know that one or two of the songs have pretty obvious meaning...but you know what, the lyrics completely fit what we're doing here! I won't hate on a song that feels good and has great lyrics :P
Well that's about it. I hope you enjoy the playlist, and swing by whenever you want to listen to songs that are in line with your alignment to the universe. I will continue to add songs, so don't worry about it being so short.
I hope that you have enjoyed this gracious beautiful day! I know I did! I got to get a haircut outside as the critters were being active. It was awesome! Tomorrow is supposed to be even hotter, so yank on some shorts and take a fun walk or something. Or don't; do what feels good! Haha! Good night!

Beautiful Days are Beautiful! (Day 32: 4/1/10)
WHAT'S THE GOOD NEWS?!?!
I really can't think of anything to say on account of my eyes being almost shut but today was so beautiful! I got a lot of work done in the library, and got to watch the beautiful weather.
I used releasing techniques to get out of heavy traffic, and also to get through a particularly busy workday that left me exhausted and late getting home. I'm really proud of myself.
See the thing is, I think that I am at the point where I can recognize my negative thoughts and emotions as soon as it happens. I used to think it, and then after something happened, I would realize, "hmm, maybe if I had changed the direction of my thinking, this wouldn't have happened." I mean a few negative things still float by, but I am more aware now and catch myself and change up my thoughts as soon as it happens.
The only thing I find myself regretting about today is that I didn't go outside and enjoy nature. I hear the weather will be nice all weekend, so I plan on getting out there! I hope you do too!

In the Cah! Part 2 (Day 31: 3/31/10)
What's the good news!
Hey, AWESOME news today. Another huge manifestation that I am proud, proud, proud to announce! Let me just say, I LOVE getting mail. I always have. I probably always will. Proof, today.
My sis muttered that the mail was here on her way downstairs and my heart stopped. I wanted that letter. I wanted it today, in that moment, and I wanted it bad! I saw that letter there, and when I opened the mailbox, it was there!
The letter regarding my acceptance to the new college I want to attend. Interesting enough, earlier today, I was texting back and forth with a friend from my old college and she was shocked that I had such new plans. We don't exactly keep in touch. I will tell you exactly what I told her. I said, I finish community college this summer, and I AM going to (Insert new College name) in the fall. I kid you not. There was a brief moment when I was typing where I put, I am hoping to go to such and such in the fall, but I stopped. I don't HOPE to get in there. I AM going there, and I AM excited to do so! So I quickly backspaced the "hoping to get in" part.
Well guesssss what?????
yup....I GOT IN!!!!! I am way too excited! In total celebration mode over here! I just absolutely NEEDED to share that with you! It's awesome and I love this!
With that said, let's go back to what we were talking about yesterday.
FOR THE EASILY ANGERED DRIVER:
So you can't get to your destination without feeling like you just went through a cycle of not just road rage, but 'roid rage. This could make the drive a bit...um...not fun. We're going to try and fix this.
1. Heavy Traffic
Mmkay. I know how frustrating heavy traffic can be. You're stuck in one place for what seems like forever, and your bored and irritated. Not to mention late for work. But stop and think about it. Is your anger helping the situation here? Think about that spiral of negative feelings. You're PO that such and such happened, and then because you sent a negative vibration, and you are in the state of allowing more of that negativity to flow into your experience, you're going to get more of it. Think about the last time you were caught in a traffic jam. When you screamed and cursed did it get any better? Probably not. It probably got worse. So here's what I want you to do:
Since you're not going to dismantle those angry feelings overnight, you have to start finding reasons to be happy. The easiest way is to look around you. There are many things that we fly by in our cars everyday and miss because we are unplugged from what's around us. You're stuck. You've got time. Take a look. You'll notice how beautiful the scenery is. Pretty flowers, nice fresh looking grass, or if you get lucky like me, you'll get to see a family of three deer hanging out at the front of the woods. Find one thing, then you'll find another, and then another, and so on and before you know it the traffic is moving again!
2. Other Drivers
A lot of what I said can be applied here, so I'll try not to repeat too much. I know that other people are not you. Do you know, accept, and believe this? You cannot control what other people do. You should neither try or want to. Does this make sense to you? Okay, good. But what about when their decisions are affecting you? Then what? Well I am actually still learning about this subject, but let me share with you my opinion.
Other people only affect you if you ALLOW them to do so. If the person in front of you is going 15 MPH in a 45 zone, okay, you could be irritated, bothered by this. But I say why? You are in your car headed to where you want to go, and due to the laws of the universe, as long as you are continuously moving in the direction of your destination, you are going to end up there. So what if it takes slower than you expected? You get there don't you? Not only do you get there, but you arrive safely. What exactly is the problem? "Oh but I'm late! I don't get to do such and such because of that old granny holdin' me up! Ah. Well then my friend if you say you are late, and you believe that you are late, if you allow yourself to be late, then I guess you're late my friend. Think about it.
(A note on time: I personally believe that time is something created by humans. In my opinion only, I say that the beings that we truly are outside of these beautifully embroidered shells we currently live in have no concept or understanding of time. What IS time after all? I always wondered. I mean there's plenty of scientist who would love to discuss that with me with fancy big latin-y words and heavy loaded math equations, but would that really answer it for me? who knows?)
Bottom line is to keep tally of how you feel. Feel Good Now. Always now. find something to make you feel happy and good, and then good experiences will follow.
With that said, I am loving everything bunches right now, and that includes you! Know that because we are connected through this wonderful universe, we are like-minded, you are my friend. I appreciate that. I feel good now. How about you?

In the Cah! Part 1 (Day 30: 3/30/10)
What's the good news?
First off, let me say YAY for getting to 30 days with such amazing results!
So here's something that I have not touched on yet. What's it like for you in your vehicle? Do you enjoy hopping in your car and cruising USA? Do you have a good time riding to work in heavy traffic? Hmm?
Well if you really do enjoy driving, that's great! I've found that driving in the car is a total uplifting experience. Each time. Or at least...it can be! If it isn't, well that's no good! Tonight I want to help you out here. So how should we do this?
Okay, I am going to break it up into two general categories. Since it will be pretty long, I'm going to break the posts into to and cover the second one tomorrow. That one is probably shorter, so it'll give me a chance to report in on what's going on in my life as well. Here are the two drivers that I am addressing:
-The All-fearing driver
-The Easily Angered driver (tune in tomorrow)
Oddly enough, I have been both of these drivers (sometimes all at once?), so I have a little experience here.
FOR THE ALL-FEARING DRIVER:
Ok, so you have mini-panic attacks every time you go out--when you go out, because driving is, well, scary. So what exactly are you scared of? There are two main fears dealing with driving that I know of, so I will address them both.
1. DYING
Well that's a logical and somewhat fair fear. Many, many, people get into car accidents everyday. Some die. It's a fact. Another fact? People die. Everyday. Regardless of the way it happens; it happens. There is a lot to be said about death, but that is another post for another day. A lot of people have different ideas on it, so I shall save that for later. My main point here is that in this day in age, death happens (for your body anyway). It is a promise.
You really should not let a that fear which is promised to you in one way or another, govern what you do and do not do. You can live on should you allow it, you could die tomorrow. Whether you are in a car or not. So you need to let that fear go. Just let it go. When you get in your car, state clearly to yourself, "I am safe. I happily arrive to all of my destinations on time. It feels good to feel safe and comfortable in my car that gets me where I need to go."
But of course, I know that if it involves a built up fear, it's going to take some time. Work at this. Take small steps. Spend time in your car without driving. Just be in your car and work at feeling good in your car (or the car that you go places in). You want to work up too the point where you can actually feel not just comfortable there, but feel GOOD. If you have to, take things that you enjoy with you, maybe your favorite book, or some leisurely activity that you enjoy, and do it there. Then you can associate having fun with the vehicle. You'll feel good about the car. Only good can come after that point.
2. THE POPO
Now, here's where I've had issues with driving.
So every time the light turns red you hit the brakes, and your hands are shaking something fierce because you thought you saw a state sheriff man in your rear-view mirror. You're just plain scared of getting pulled over by the police. Or further, you're scared of getting a ticket, and having to go to court, and having to pay fines...then there's points on your license and then...ahh!
Let me tell you, I had this problem once. I worried over getting pulled over and getting in trouble, whether I was breaking the law or not. It was tough. Well after worrying, and worrying, and worrying over it some more every time I got in my car, guess what? Yup, the universe gave me exactly what I was asking for. (and by "ask" I mean the vibration of, getting pulled over by the cops) I got pulled over.
Even though I was scared to death, I learned two very important things that night:
-The Law of Attraction works (haha, as you already know. and,)
-Police are people too. Ordinary people who are just doing their job and trying to keep us all safe. They aren't scary.
The cop I got was actually very attractive, and he was very very nice to me! I didn't get a ticket or anything, not even really a warning. He just joked at me and suggested I pay better attention to what I was doing. That experience was enough to get rid of my fear of cops. The bottom line is, if you aren't doing anything wrong, then there is no logical reason for you to fear being pulled over. They are only looking out for people who aren't abiding by the laws. So just do what's right and you don't even have to worry about the police. So let that fear go.
Ok, so this ends part one of the 2 part post on driving in the car. If you are an all-fearing driver, I hope that this is at least a little light on your fears. I hope that you can learn to enjoy driving! It's a time to meditate, focus, or even just have a good time jamming to your music. It shouldn't be something that you fear!
First off, let me say YAY for getting to 30 days with such amazing results!
So here's something that I have not touched on yet. What's it like for you in your vehicle? Do you enjoy hopping in your car and cruising USA? Do you have a good time riding to work in heavy traffic? Hmm?
Well if you really do enjoy driving, that's great! I've found that driving in the car is a total uplifting experience. Each time. Or at least...it can be! If it isn't, well that's no good! Tonight I want to help you out here. So how should we do this?
Okay, I am going to break it up into two general categories. Since it will be pretty long, I'm going to break the posts into to and cover the second one tomorrow. That one is probably shorter, so it'll give me a chance to report in on what's going on in my life as well. Here are the two drivers that I am addressing:
-The All-fearing driver
-The Easily Angered driver (tune in tomorrow)
Oddly enough, I have been both of these drivers (sometimes all at once?), so I have a little experience here.
FOR THE ALL-FEARING DRIVER:
Ok, so you have mini-panic attacks every time you go out--when you go out, because driving is, well, scary. So what exactly are you scared of? There are two main fears dealing with driving that I know of, so I will address them both.

Hungry! (Day 29: 3/29/10)
What's the good news?
You know, the Law of Attraction works every time! Today I woke up feeling like blah, and not really happy and not feeling bad either. I put out those vibes all day long, and that is exactly the kind of day I had. School, work, home was what happened today. I am very sleepy.
I did manage to get to page 100 in the next Hicks book, so I know I'll be finished with that one soon.
Still working on the surprise! Heading toward the middle of the week when things start to slow down, it'll get a lot easier to get more things done and have more experiences to blog about...
Wait a minute...I really feel like I am not thinking to the best of my ability here. This day was blah because I made it blah! I am not allowing that to happen tomorrow! I vow to have a spectacular day tomorrow, and smile continuously! Let's try and not have anymore blah days! I have no idea why I allowed that today...well I will have quite a bit more free time tomorrow, so I think I will try out another process from "Ask and it is Given". Scripting was a lot of fun. I want to try something else now. Or maybe I might make up my own. That'll be a lot of fun.
Another post with thoughts everywhere. It's because I am hungry and tired. But I need to really work on that. I shouldn't say things like "I'm tired" and "I'm exhausted". Instead I will say, "I worked well today."
I'm going to start working on how I say things on here because they reflect thoughts which may or may not be beneficial to my life experience. Hope that gives you something to think about.
More to come soon. Oh, and if you want to know about something, feel free to ask. I will get back to you with the very best answer that I can give you! We're all in this together (no relation to HSM) and it's great to have support. I am here for you!
Night!

Clean, clean, clean! (Day 28: 3/28/20)
What's the good news?
Okay so this should have been a book review post, but I am going to put it off once more, only because right now I am spent from all the Spring Cleaning today. I managed to get a heck of a lot done and at the same time, created a whole other big mess! (hehe) It's okay, I already anticipated that this would be a multi-day project.
Well the things that I did get done were:
-I completely re-vamped my bookshelf, by saying bye bye to all of my manga.
-I de-cluttered my closet and managed to arrange my clothing by color and length
-I got rid of all the clothing I haven't worn in forever
-I went through a huge case full of old papers from 6th grade all the way til my freshman year of college! (a LOT of papers)
I'm really proud of myself for getting that far. It's currently a work in progress that I hope to have finished by the end of next week. I ended up purchasing a few items to help the process along. Oh, and I found a whole trunk full of memorabilia from a passed relationship! That was a total shocker because I thought I didn't have anything left. I'm going to be ceremoniously disposing (trashing :P I'd burn them if I were allowed) of each of those items. It's not that I am still bitter or anything, but this whole experience is about new beginnings and fresh starts. It's holding me back and I guess I realize that holding on to it is holding onto old vibrations that are not and should not be a part of me anymore. So I'm going to let it all go! For real this time ^_^ I'm ready. How was your spring cleaning?
With that said, I am over my blogging time and I am going to crash. School and work tomorrow. Love you all!

Wha...Work Early? (Day 27: 3/27/10)
What's the good news?
I am exhausted! But in a good way of course! Did a lot of work because my co-worker decided to quit earlier than expected, so I went on in. It was an interesting day indeed. Mostly, it was so interesting because absolutely nothing happened. Haha. These past few almost 30 days have been so energetic and full of activity that I nearly forgot what an average, not-much-happening day felt like. I just got up, read, went to work, and came home. Nothing bad here, but I don't know, maybe I am bored?
My affirmation today was "Today I will connect with nature" Well I dunno if this counts, but as I was driving down the road today, a very interesting bird sat and caught my eye as I passed. I don't think it was watching me, but this bird was so pretty. It was like a golden color. I don't know bird types or anything, so I can't exactly identify it for you, but all I know is that it was beautiful, and I am thankful that it caught my eye.
Tomorrow I get the day off, so I will be doing my Spring Cleaning! Also, I will try and get that book review done, since I am now officially done reading it! ^_^ I started the next one, but I didn't really have that much time to get very far because of work. I will continue to work on the surprise for the blog too! I think it will be done by at least Friday, so keep your eyes open for awesome blog enhancements! Bwahaha so good it feels evil. (Good evil. ha! oxymoron!)
In case you haven't picked up on it yet, I am probably going to pass out into a deep slumber very soon. I get really silly when I'm sleepy, so before I scare anyone, I'm going to call it a night.
Thank so much for reading! I hope that you participated in Earth Hour tonight, and don't forget about Spring Cleaning tomorrow!

Spring Cleaning! Part 2 ( Day 26: 3/26/10)
What's the good news?
So today was pretty cool. I woke up to help my sister do surveys for her class, and met a reasonably attractive guy. It was cool because I was able to hold his attention for more than 2 seconds, and later on, my sister patted me on the back for being so social. Her acknowledgment meant a lot more to me than the actual situation, because to me it's like she recognizes my progress. Others can see the changing that's going on here. I love it!
So tonight I want to chat with you about Spring Cleaning again. I already told you about doing the mental spring cleaning, but now I wanna talk about the physical cleaning of your living space. Whether you live in a house, a box, a dorm room, or a mansion, it's time to clean up! Even if you already have a neat and tidy space, let's clean up some! (Of course, for those of you who keep relatively organized space, this is going to go a lot faster for you)
So where to start? Hmm, let's begin with the most obvious. Pick up anything that litter the floor first. You don't have to do everything all at once. Set a time limit for yourself, turn on some jamming music, and just pick up! (Thanks to CharmingPixieFlora for that tip) This is fairly straightforward: pick up anything that doesn't belong on the floor. I too have issues with throwing laundry on the floor, so lets start here because it's the most pressing. After this, you can be done for the day, or move on to the next area.
When you feel ready, let's get a hold on organizing our stuff. There are a lot of tools you can use to help you get organized, and way too many to list here. I plan on doing this on Sunday, so I'll share with you what I am going to do. If you find you like something else, feel free to share it!
I got this tip from a close friend, because I come from a long line of packrats, and believe it or not, it's a hereditary trait :( So I am determined to fix that! Here's how I'm gonna do it. I will get four boxes (or trash bags, or anything that can be use as a sorting utensil) mark one as "Need/Keep" one as "Donate", the next will be labeled as "Trash It!" and the last one, my favorite, "I have never used this before, but I KNOW I will use it SOMEDAY!!"
So go through your stuff and sort them in the appropriate bin. If I were you, I would time this as well, because it keeps it interesting how much you can get done in that little bit of time! There are specific instructions for each bin, so try and keep those 4 main bins. Don't start making up your own little subpiles, because you're going to end up back where you started. Once you are done sorting, I suggest you quit for the day, because the job is not finished yet, and you could get irritated by the next steps.
For the "KEEP/NEED" box:
You're probably going to need to sort stuff again. (I actually redo the whole process for each type of thing in my room. Like for clothes, I'll spend time sorting those, for books, I'll sort those as well. But some people just want to do it all at once.) Find each item in that box a home, because if you can't find it a home, it's going to have to go in one of the other 3 boxes. You have to be tough it comes to that!
For the "Donate" box:
Round everything up, and try to at least keep like items together before stopping by your local Goodwill and dropping the box/bag/whatever off forever. It'll make someone else's job easier! This might be a hard step for you if you like to hold on to things. I suggest you try a releasing technique, and just let go the minute you drop it all off. Once you get back home and have all of that space, I bet you will feel a lot better!
For the "Trash it!" box:
It's pretty obvious here what you do. But PLEASE OH PLEASE, if you notice that you have something that can be recycled, recycle it! That's the only thing I want to beg you about here. So many things that we can recycle get thrown out because we just don't stop to think about it.
MY FAVORITE For the "I have never used this before, but I KNOW I will use it SOMEDAY!!" box:
This is simple. You don't even have to re-sort this one. Unless you want to. But all you have to do is grab a Permanent marker and write on it the Date of when you put it all in there, and then a date 2 months in the future. Now close it up and find it a home. Then leave it alone. Don't bug it. Don't ever touch it. On the day you marked it for 2 months later here's what you do:
1. Place the bag/box/whatever in the floor. (DO NOT open it.)
2. Grab a pen and a piece of paper.
3. List every single item that is in that box.
If you cannot recall what's in the box, toss it. Never look in that thing again. Now, if you can remember what's in it, then you can re-asses what to do with the items inside of it. Perhaps within those 2 months you have found a purpose for it, but maybe not. In that case, you'll be more willing to either find it a home or toss it/donate it. In the end, you'll know what to do with it.
Of course, there's always vacuuming and the lot, but those I don't really feel the need to express here. I'm assuming you know how to do these :)
While you're doing this process, I want you to keep in mind that all of this you are doing is for your own good. With a clean living environment, you are going to have a mind that lacks visual clutter. The vibrations you will have with a clean place will not be shadowed with distracting thoughts like, "oh dear, my underwears are lying on the floor" or "geez where is that darn book I put down?!". This will help what you put off into the universe, and in turn, you will be much closer to what you want.
I hope that this helps! So how about it? Sunday I am challenging myself and you! Let's do some Spring Cleaning! Let us know about your results!

Scripting
So I got this tool from "Ask and it is Given" by Jerry and Esther Hicks. This is a process that you can use to help you visualize what you want to manifest in the future.
So to do this, all you'll need is:
-Paper
-Writing Utensil
-Your imagination
Now don't go all, "aww I gotta actually write something down?" on me, trust me, once you get started on this, it is actually a lot of fun!
So have a seat with your materials, and think about what you are wanting to manifest soon. (Or not so soon. Whatever you want) Think about exactly what it is you want. Now pick a scene with you in it, having whatever it is that you want to attract. I love to write it like it's a screenplay for a movie! It makes it so much more fun.
Now, include the setting, and everything like that. What is going on in this scene? Who are the main characters? (HINT: You should be one of them!) What are they doing? How are they reacting and feeling about the situation? What do the surrounding look like? Where is the scene taking place? Is it day or night? Spring or Winter? At a library or at the Empire State Building in New York?
Write it all down. Place the setting in the beginning, and then continue the scene by writing the conversation between the characters. Make sure that the conversation is exactly what you want to happen to you. Give the scene movement while they talk. The more that you think about it, the more you will get into it and you'll feel great because everything will be going exactly the way you want it to. This is your vision, you are the one in control of what happens.
When you do this, you'll be letting do your guards, and some of that resistance you have built up will be knocked down.
When you feel it's right, end the scene and sit back and look at your work. I had fun this evening actually acting out the scene that I had created. It's so much fun. This is great visualization, and you know exactly what that means.
Visualization is going to place you in line with what you want. You will be in the state of allowing, and you will be telling the universe that you are ready to have what you have asked for. So the more you practice it out, the more you will bring yourself into the state of allowance and start getting the things you want!
That's about it. I really suggest you do this, and from time to time, act out the scene that you created. It's tones of fun, and you can only reap benefits from it. Just remember to place yourself in that scene as the main character. Also remember your emotions. You know when something feels good, and you know when something feels bad. Don't put anything in your scene that feels bad. Nothing. Put only good in there because that feels good, and you will draw only good to you.
On that note, try it out, and have fun with it! Good Luck :)

Whew! New Project! (Day 25: 3/25/10)
What's the good news?
Hey everyone. I didn't blog yesterday, but I am here today. How's it going? I feel great! I tried the process called 'Scripting' today, and it made me a lot more aware of what I want to happened. It's a great process to try, and it is a lot of fun! Since I didn't blog yesterday, I'll post more information about it tonight after I do this one.
So today I am just in a chatting mood. How was your day? I had a great day, I had a slightly rocky start, but in Art Class I started scripting and everything just got better and better through the day.
A cute guy talked to me today in the library. He even flirted a little. (Great Stuff) I didn't feel nervous at all! I just smiled and played along. I don't think I've ever really done that before. (Mind you, one of my goals is to meet new people, perhaps have a new young romance, but I'm not looking for my soul mate--not yet. I don't want to settle down yet. I want to do young people things and just date around and have fun. I always hear about it, but have yet to experience it all...until now that it, of course because I am open to love and all that :D)
Tomorrow I will be spending the day with my mom and sis. Fun stuff! We might go to DC and check out the cherry blossoms. I'll be sure to try and take some pictures or video or something. That'll be great for the blog, because beautiful things make me feel happy, and good feelings leads to good experiences.
Hmm, I don't really have that much else to say for today. I hope everything is great on your end. KUDOS to Heyer for his post by the way! I was starting to worry that he wasn't getting the whole real picture of the Law of Attraction, but after reading it I see that he's getting there. I feel so proud of him :D
I'll will try to work on the book review tomorrow and have it posted by Sunday, so look forward to that. I will probably be starting the next book tomorrow :)
Oh My Goodness! I almost forgot! I have a new project that I am working on specifically for this blog! I am very excited about it. I can't wait to share it with you, but for right now, it is a secret because I want it to be a surprise! I got the idea for it yesterday, and decided to start on it. It is a little bit time consuming, so it will take a few days. But it is a lot of fun, you'll love it.
Well now that I've got you curious about what it is, I'm going to head off, and let the suspense simmer in your brains until next time. Feel free to leave comments and guess what it is. Maybe I'll drop some clues soon.
Catch you later!

Staying Positive
Whenever i feel sad or depressed at random times i step back and think. Why am i depressed? Is it because im nervous? or afraid? its okay to be afraid but keep in mind that even tho you may be scared or nervous that everything will be okay as long as you stay positive an stay focused. You have to be happy and you have to keep thinking to yourself is it worth being depressed about whatever you are depressed about? Being positive is essential in succeeding in life and you gotta keep your head up. With myself i think about why i am and then i let it go because i have so much to be happy for. Tho it may be hard to do at first you gotta keep focused and stay on the positive. If you dont negativity will surround you and that is not a good thing. Stay positive. stay focused

So how 'bout that....HEALTH CARE??? (Day 23:3/23/10)
What's the good news, all?
Hey, I know that I was going to talk about Spring Cleaning tonight, but I just got out of my Political Science class and I'm a little irked. Tonight I will briefly talk about Politics. Now don't get uptight...I am NOT going to share my political beliefs with you, and I am NOT bringing this up for the point of debate. This blog is about bettering our lives! This will probably be the only post that will involve politics ever.
So pretty much if you've read any of the news lately, you know about the whole health care, I'm not really going to go over it because I don't really know all of the facts, so I'm not going to pretend like I do. That's not what I'm going for here.
In my class tonight there was a lot, a lot, of negativity toward this thing. I mean, we didn't even get three minutes into class before fits of outrage burst out across the classroom. This was another time where I felt so distant from the people around me. I really didn't have much of an opinion about any of it. All of this heated debate and negativity was wizzing around me.
Pretty much what I want to say (rant about) is that if you have a problem with how the government is doing something, please please please do something about it. There are so many things that you can do to get involved. I found that when asked, the majority of the people complained had not voted in a long time, which is pretty easy...the hardest part of that is what? Standing in a line? (If there is one)
But I'm getting off point. No need for undue negativity here. Do you have issues with this health care reform? Well here's what you need to do: call up your representative, your senator, whoever you need to, and have a chat with their staffers. This is your right. Tell them exactly what you have a problem with and let them know what's on your mind.
So how does this tie in with everything I am going for on this blog? I'm not exactly sure. I really just wanted to tell people that they have the ability to do something about their situation. So there you go. I guess it goes with the whole creating your own reality issue. Yeah, my brain is scattered tonight from too much heavy thinking...
Anyway, I won't apologize for being random and all over the place because that's who I am, and I love that person. However I will apologize for the lack of much information in this post. School, school, that's all I have to say. Tomorrow I only have one class so hopefully I can focus more. Come Friday, I hope to give a good article, so stick with me!

Snacking
Lately as i have gained so much weight i have started cutting back on snacks... way back.
Usually i have a granola bar or some little things of 100 calories packs. I've decided to not have basically anything at all. I get pop tarts so i dont have to buy chickfila every morning. and i eat whatever i dont finish by the end of the week. sometimes ill buy a bag of chips if i am dying. i'm trying to shrink my stomach in a controlled manner so i dont get so hungry so often. Portion control is a problem of mine and im trying to fix that. i over eat when i just had something healthy. I'm working towards my goal!

Spring Cleaning! ( Day 22: 3/22/10)
What's the good news?
Hey everyone! Sorry about the lack of video upload yesterday. Serious technical difficulty. I'm going to see if I can get someone to let me upload from their computer, and if not, oh well, there will be more videos! Anyway, that's what happened.
Tonight I would like to talk to you about Spring Cleaning. Have you started yet? (I have not, hehe) But it is really important to do it. Oh, and I am not just talking about cleaning up your house and getting rid of all the clutter. (Even though that is also very important. In fact, I will talk about that tomorrow.) I am talking about your mind!
We all have so many thoughts and every single point in time. "What should I wear tonight?" "What was the answer to that radio trivia question yesterday?" "How do I feel about health care reform?" So, so many thoughts--and yet, the majority of them don't really stay for long. Most of the things we think are passing, fleeting thoughts. Which I guess aren't really all that bad for you as long as you follow your emotions and keep your eyes on the prize.
But there are some thoughts that stay.
"I've been fat my whole life because my whole family has bad eating habits. We're just big people."
"My last boyfriend cheated on me, so there's something wrong with me. That's why I am alone now."
"I could never afford ____"
Like I've said before, thoughts like these are many years in the making, and it's going to take a while to get rid of them. But you can start today, right now. Let's do some Spring Cleaning. Have a seat in your favorite place, and just breathe for a few minutes. You could turn this into a meditation if you'd like, but you really don't have to if you don't want to. Also, it could be beneficial for you to write all of this down, if you want to.
Think about all of the thoughts that you think are holding you back from the things that you want. Take note, or write down, each one. Then think about why this is holding you back. Note that, or write it down. Then think about where the thought may have originated, or where you can remember of it beginning. (None of this is really important to your future, but I think it can show you just how far you've come.)
If you have written all of this down, when you are done, I want you to read everything that you have written, and then take a deep breathe, because what happens next can be scary. I want you to look at that list, and say "I am free from limiting thoughts. I can be anyone I want to be. I am everything I want to be. I can have everything I could ever want. I already have everything that I want. I can do whatever I want to do. I will do everything that I want to do." Say it as many times as you need until it feels real for you. (This may take more than one attempt.) Then I want you to go outside, where ever you keep the garbage bin (but not a trash can in your house--those thoughts have no place in your home anymore! They aren't a part of you.) and toss it. Don't even look it over again, just walk straight there, and toss it. Then your spring cleaning is done!!! (for now.)
If you haven't written any of it down, instead, I want you to reenact the release technique that I showed at the end of the post day number 4, labeled "Wake UP and Smell the Birthday Cake"
Mental Cleaning is very important, because as you know, once you ask the universe, that's it. You've got it. But any thoughts that cause you to have a vibration that counters what you want, is going to hinder you from your desires. So let's get to cleaning, and start the season off F.R.E.S.H FRESH!

Vision Board in Detail (Day 21: 3/21/10)
What's the good news?
I didn't really have a lot to say this evening, so I decided to vlog and give a closer look of my finished Vision Board. I don't really know why it came out sounding a little down...I was so excited when I was making it! Guess that's one more thing to work on. Anyway, have a fabulous night, and I will be back tomorrow night with some information. (Though I might be exhausted from work and school...who knows, I like blogging to you though, so I'll be here.)
Sending love from here to where you are!

Short! (Day 20: 3/20/10)
What's the good news?
Hello all!
This will be another short post, due to the fact that I won't be able to post later tonight. (Religious Holiday) I have to work in a little bit, too.
So today I went shopping and was very outgoing the whole time! I talked to people, and smiled and was just feeling great. Bought some things for my herbal garden that I will be planting later tonight, and some candles and things. OH! My clothes came in the mail a lot sooner than they were expected. I am sooo excited! I tried each thing on about a billion times, and though others think they don't look so great on me, I happen to LOVE my new clothes. I can't wait to mix and match them and wear them outside. I had feared that they wouldn't fit, and the only thing that only didn't fit was a pair of shorts that were only 7 bucks. I can actually make them fit if I do some tailoring, so I'm very pleased with my order! I am glad I did it.
I finished my vision board last night! It was so much fun putting everything together. Though in the end, I found that some things didn't fit (things that I actually didn't have as goals for these 100 days, so it really works out). But I found that I want to do another one!!! It was a lot of fun, and I really focused on the things that I want. I will hang it somewhere that I can see every single day.
Okay, and I'm sorry that I am jumping around from topic to topic, but I decided that I would do a little bit of a report. Today marks 20 days of the 100 Day Challenge. I figure I will report in on my manifestations every 20 days and discuss briefly what has improved on my life, so going back over my list:
1)Enjoy being physically active.
2)Enjoy healthy foods.
3)Gain and love a unique, fun, flirty fashion sense.
4)Have the ability to afford all the material wants, yet still be able to save for the future.
5)Make friends who are supportive, positive, like-minded, and honest.
6)Proudly receive all A's in all of my classes.
For Number 1: I have taken a walk yesterday, and as the weather gets warmer, I am finding it harder and harder to stay in bed. I actually want to get out and do things! Now all that's left is the final push. Working towards it!
Number 2: Getting a lot better at it. Still a work in process. I do find myself craving water more than soda or juice, which a shocking positive. I have never particularly liked drinking water, so that's something.
Number 3: Clothes came in the mail today, and went clothes and shoes shopping Wednesday! Very fun! I'm sure there's more to come!
Number 4: With birthday money, I have been able to spend money for new clothes and shoes and whatnot, and save all of my paychecks in my bank account! I love not having to worry about gas! ALSO (this just in!) One of my co-workers is quitting, so I will be getting plenty more hours on the weekend, which means more money!!!
Number 5: Still a work in progress. I have made new acquaintances both at work and at school, and also old friends have been turning up to contact me.
Number 6: Also still working at it. I currently have very good grades in my classes. I will be able to graduate this summer. I am certainly proud of myself. Especially in Biology, because though I am not a fan of that subject, that's my highest grade yet!
On a side note, I have a lot more energy, and feel happy mostly everyday. I have read through the Jerry and Esther Hicks book 1, "Ask and it is Given". My vision board is completed, and I have such a sense of well-being. I smile all the time, and can't wait for the next awesome thing to happen!
Things to work on: not letting other peoples' moods to affect me, stop worrying about what lies ahead, organization, and trying to make people see things my way.
There's the status report! Again, sorry about being so jumpy, but I am running here, there, and everywhere today. I have to get ready for an amazing day at work!
I hope you are having a splendid day!
Sending love vibrations from here to where you are! Have a GREAT day, and welcome to the Spring!!!
