Confessions of Nothing











{November 13, 2006}   Change

Change- v. – 1. to make a difference 2. to exchange: to change places. 3 to give or get foreign money in exchange for 4. to remove and replace the coverings or garments of 5. to become different 6. to make an exchange 7. to transfer between conveyances 8. to put on different clothes

 

Why is it that people don’t like change? I heard from a wise man today that people are afraid of failure, and with that they are also afraid of change. Change is doing something new and they fear they won’t be good at it. That is why people don’t like or fear the concept of change.

 

The technology world is ALWAYS changing. Look at the inventory for I-pods, Mp3s, computers, TVs, and even radios! With all this new technology offered to us it causes the work force to change. New jobs available that weren’t even around 10-30-50 years ago, and also some jobs aren’t available any more. But, with all these new jobs the skill and knowledge to get them is also changing.

 

Now, with the increasing amount of knowledge people need to get these new jobs, our school systems are also evolving and changing. Another, reason school systems are different from before is due to recent studies that prove and help test different learning methods. The Educational Career is always changing in order to better do it’s job; which is to educated future generations in order to be prepared for their lives and future.

 

How we teach our youngest generations is Vidal to future society! And, if one took the time to think about it; with all these new demands the same teaching methods aren’t going to help prepare these children for their future because that method was created to help prepare for what is now their present. Resulting in the need for new teaching methods or the building/ further developing to better suit the demands for each generation.

 

All this change in our World today just keeps continuing, and if people aren’t willing to accept it; then they are SOL because the World can’t slow down for them because they “don’t want to do it.” People need to learn that when it comes to it change is unavoidable; you may be able to run from it but you can’t HIDE!

 

Now, I only used this as an example due to my aunt’s constant annoyances with her career at the moment and the ignorance of her colleagues by resisting change in their careers. But, this whole blog is really related towards any change.

 

You either embrace change or you’re the creator of your own problems! =/



{November 11, 2006}   I am… But.

My name is Colleen. I’m 16, but wise for my age. I am not perfect, but I am confident in my strengths. I have a temper issue, but I am compassionate. I can be nervous, but I’m very out going. I’m smart, but I’m not a kn0w-it-all. I like sports, but not to into athletics. I love music, but can’t write it. I like guitar, but can’t play much. I belive in much, but sometimes not myself. I’m laid back, but get paranoid easily. I’m a bitch at times, but generally friendly. I’m flirty, but not a skank. I’m different, but not werid. I’m a dork, but not a geek. I like boys, but I’m in love with Ben <3 . I like to write, but can’t spell. I can be shy, but once i start talking I can’t shut-up. I’m bored a lot, but easiely amused. I’m tired, but can’t sleep…. thats all for now on this topic. =]



{November 11, 2006}   Complications of Teenage life

Any teenagers? maybe even just remembering that point in time? Well, why is that we always have those moments where we just have a rush of different emotions. Mostly thinking about the following:

-The fast lane     – falling    – alone    – needy    – unknown

+ Some days we just feel our life is going to fast. We have no control. School, chores, homework, sleep, exc. We live in the fast lane. Emotions, school, and our general life; everything happens all at once and we never know what to excpect. We just feel like we need to have things to calm down, and just take control again. Stopping to hang out with friends or catch up on our favorite TV shows.+

+ Then, there is the time when we have the rush of the falling feeling. Our life is a down fall of emotions where they just snowball into a huge problem. One thing after another. Nothing can every go wrong without another problem after it esculating the delema. =[ +

+ THe times we crave others attention a) the opposite sex b) friends or c) popularity. I don't understand why some days we feel completely independt and comfortable with who we are, how we are, and what we do. but, then things change and we feel we despritely need people.+

+ Days we are completly satisfied, but then others we feel our needs aren't complete. We excpect them to be filled by people, yet, we don't know what we want or need. So, how do we excpect anyone to help us? We can't control it though. =/ +

+ Then there are days we just feel like crap. For no reason. It's very confusing. +

why are there so many emotions involved in growing up? not to mention there are many more that I haven't written about. (i have no time to write them all out) I wish to think that they go away, but sadly I don't think they do. Yet, grow to become more complicated. That's why we have friends and family to keep us alive. =] yay!
