Sink or Swim

Debating and deciding, oh those major life-altering decisions. When making decisions, the one thing to consider is to sink or to swim. I've concluded that I want to stand on my own after graduation, and I don't want help. I'll either sink or I'll swim. Swimming is the best option and I will do my best. Also, when considering mlad's you may have to settle until you can find a way to reach a greater goal. Settling might actually turn out even better than your original plan. Start small and work your way to the top when you decide to gain your independence. The world may be big and bad, but you can be tough. Face it, and demand your independence.

Self Sabotage

Self sabotage, why do I do it? Why does anyone? Sometimes I get to a point and I just can't sleep, like right now. I get to thinking about stuff and can't stop. Then I worry about it; how is this going to turn out? What if I make this decision? What if I chicken out? That's when the sabotage begins. I dwell... and dwell... and you guessed it, dwell some more. I take forever to make my decisions sometimes and in the end it hurts me more. Sometimes taking forever helps me know that it's right, but it's still hard.

Another way I sabotage myself is when I go through a break up (or think about one) all I want to do is watch chick flicks like The Notebook, The Wedding Date, and Sweet Home Alabama. I listen to break up songs and sometimes I listen to love songs. It gives me some weird hope of finding that someday. I'm just setting myself up to see/hear something so romantic and here I am crying my eyes out over a break up.

I really don't know any other way to make myself feel better, except for writing it all down. You've probably figured out what made me write this and what's keeping me up at such an early hour. It's a hard thing to do and it does deserve some thought. Honestly, I have to say that I probably have given this too much thought. I've been taking my time and consequently I have to deal with that.

Decide

Everyone has fallen into the tormenting clutch of peer pressure. I'm sure we've all let it influence our decisions if not control them at least once. Sometimes the damage can be fixed, but sometimes there are things you can't turn back. That's why peer pressure is so bad. Those permanent decisions can make a world of a difference. Don't get me wrong, not all peer pressure is bad, although most of it is.

The moral of this blog; don't let peer pressure bother you. It's part of life. Although, some is good, a lot is bad. Use common sense and decide for yourself. Make your own decisions. If you need help with a decision you can always ask, but don't let that be your whole decision. Put in your own thoughts, think about it, and then decide. I could go on about how peer pressure is good and bad, but let's just end it here, I'm sure we've all heard everything about it.
