Playing with my heartstrings

Feb 07, 2008 11:35

Ugh, I am so stinking unmotivated today!!! This is not good at all!!! >_<
I talked to Brit about a few of things that have been driving me crazy lately in my life, so hopefully I will start to feel a little bit better now that I got them off my chest. Things do take time though.
Yesterday was Ash Wednesday, the start of lent, and I've decided to give up pop (or soda, to some of you.) I know, it seems kinda crazy but I drink way too much of it and Im sort of addicted to it and I decided I would just try to get rid of it because it's really not that good for you anyway...yeah. I almost failed already lol. I've gotten better at cutting down on it, but Im gonna see if I can try and eliminate it completely....it shall be interesting to say the least. I hope I can focus more on God during these 40 days, I have gotten better at spending time with him everyday but there is definitely still room for improvement. Sometimes I feel like I'm still a newborn baby when it comes to my faith, and in many ways alot of us are. 
OMG: so there's this commercial now that they put on TV and it makes me want to cry b/c it's EXACTLY what happened to my mom...it's the one where they show this great upcoming movie about this dad and daughter and the daughter is getting married, and the Dad's all excited for her and then it flashes to this other Dad and Daughter, and they're both crying and the daughter is laying in the hospital bed alongside her Dad because he's dying of cancer from smoking....ugh. Then it says "If you aren't planning to quitting smoking, then what are you planning?" It totally pulled my heartstrings. My Grandpa died before I was even born, and even before my Mom got married so it just hit me, it makes my mom cry even worse.

Well I should get going, I really do have stuff to do lol...>_
