Rainy Days Fade Away....

Rainy Days Fade Away.... Unfortunately! Rain has gone and we are heading into snow. Days are gloomy and we had a slight snow fall last week. Time to pull out the  snow boots and gloves. Mondays are dragging by slow and the weeks are getting longer. Hold in there lad, winter break is now even closer!

Don't knock the weather; nine-tenths of the people couldn't start a conversation if it didn't change once in a while.  ~Kin Hubbard

Decorating For Fall

In a recent post I put up some tips for decorating for Halloween. Well after further thinking about it I realized some people don't celebrate Halloween. So, I decided to help liven up the blocks by giving some info on decorating for fall!

You can hit up your local dollar store and find some things such as fake leaves and pinecones, etc.

You can even do it yourself from scratch. Just get a couple of leaves and put them around your house . You can even make a wreath out of them. Or decorate with a few streamers and maybe a flag.

What ever you do make it your own! Lets brighten this world up!

Are You Nervous?

Well Its's probably about that time when you have to do projects and grading periods are coming to a close and we may be a little nervous. Well when I get nervous I usually turn the music up and ignore the world with all its problem and worries. So here's my inspirational song for the week!

Lemme Tell You About Stress :(

SO THAT LOOKS LIKE ME JUST A FEW MINUTES AGO.. O__o

(Picture from http://www.learning3pointzero.com/2011/04/10/theres-no-point-fighting-stress-manage-it/ )

Do you have stress??? YES! Everyone has stress even babies! < yeah  I know right! When my gym teacher told me Babies have stress I was a little iffy.. But She know's what she's talking about so I believe her.. But anyway.. Everyone has stress, but not everyone knows how to deal with the stress. First here are some reasons you maybe stressed out as a teen. 

• Pressure to do good in school
• pressure to wear certain types of clothing or hairstyles
• pressure to try drugs, alcohol or sex
• pressure to fit in
• family and peer conflicts
• taking on too many activities at one time
• weight

Now here are a couple of ways to ease the stress. They may seem like they aren't going to work, but you may be surprised. 

• Taking deep breaths and encouraging yourself < I do this often
• Breaking large goals, down into smaller goals
• Exercising and eating regularly
• Focusing on things you can control and letting go of things you cannot control
• Rehearsing and practicing feared situations like speaking in public
• Talking about problems with others
• Lowering unrealistic goals 
• Taking breaks and doing enjoyable activities, like music, art, sports, socializing
• Accepting yourself as you are, realizing no one is perfect!

Sounds kinda cheesy, but it def. doesn't hurt to try! :)
