Instincts

Instincts by definition means a natural or intuitive way of acting or thinking. Humans have instincts, the one question is when to follow them. Do you trust your brain, heart, or instincts. My thinking is that you have to apply it to the situation. If you don't know the answer to the math test you didn't study for, probably go with what your brain tells you. If you are thinking about a relationship probably follow your heart. So when does instinct come in? What exactly is the difference between following your instincts and following your brain. Well instincts there more like a feeling. You gut telling you to do or not do something. Its your conscious. Do you go with that gut feeling or what your brain tells you? There is no answer to this question. There is no book that outlines exactly how your life is going to go and how you should make all those decisions. You just have to live your life to the fullest and have no regrets. With that how could you not be happy?

Not Really A Rant...I guess

Okay am I the only one who feels like they get there hopes up for something to just watch it fail. I feel like this happens all the time. I get super excited about something and just watch it get ripped from my grasp. This is so frustrating. Please tell me I am not the only one who feels this way. I have gotten to the point where I don't want to assume anything is going to happen that way if it does, GREAT I'm happy, but if it doesn't then I am not sad that it didn't happen. Even though I have had this vision for quite a while, I always let the excitement get the best of me. Some how it always brings me back to stage one. Saying from now on don't expect it too happen. It's a lot harder said then done I'm afraid. How about you guys? Do you share a time where you have had a similar feeling?

Christmas Music

Google

Christmas music makes me so happy. I can't exactly explain why, I just get really cheering when it's playing. Maybe it's that it reminds me of all of the good time, around the people I love. It's the smiles and joy that people around me have. It's the one time of year when I never let anything ruin it. I just really enjoy Christmas music. Now for all you scrooges out there I will post a link of my favorite band and favorite album if you would rather do that. Or you could just get into the Christmas spirit!

Introduction To Me

I thought it was time that I did an introduction to me post. My name is Christina Dietrich. I am a sophomore at Hela High School. My dream job is to be a famous author. I am a cheerleader at Evergreen High School. Outside of cheer and school I enjoy reading and writing. I also have a major addiction to Wattpad. I am going to confess I am on here 24/7. It doesn't matter if I am at school or at home. I stay up later than my mom would prefer me to. I get caught up in all the books people published on. I also love spending time with my family, friends, and my dog Sparkie. Cheer and school leave me with little free time, but it keeps me out of trouble.  

Sparkie

This is my adorable dog Sparkie when he was 6 weeks old. He was so small and cute and I loved those little floppy ears that have now turned into ears that point straight up or down. I got him on Christmas morning in 6th grade. I remember my brother Nathan and I were walking up the stairs when I heard a whine come from the bathroom. Nathan's reaction was "No way!" I got a dog a little small Australian Shepherd Black Lab mix. 

Sparkie is now a full grown dog who loves to cuddle and steal my blankets. I love this little dog and he is always there to protect me and alert me when something is off or someone is near by. He can sense when I am upset and is just an amazing dog.

Feeling: Blessed to have such an amazing dog 😇

Underwater Dogs

Google

I am not going to lie to you I love underwater dogs. They make me so happy and never fail to make me smile. If you look at these photos and don't smile. You must really hate life or more likely have no soul. I am sorry but these are hilarious and are one of the best things on the planet. Just look at these how can you not think these are the best things ever? Well they are it's a fact! 

Google

I mean look at this puppy. It looks like it's thinking really now you are deciding to take a picture. It is just so funny.

Google

Then you have this one who looks like he is seeing the first ever under water squirrel. This dog could not have a funnier face.

Feeling: Thankful for the people who took these pictures of these hilarious underwater dogs. 😀 

Friyays

Google

You know the best thing about Fridays is? You get to see your friends and stay up as late as you want. For me I enjoy school, but it's nice knowing I don't have to get up to my alarm that makes me want to welcome death. When I first get up and even sometimes in the mornings when people say good morning I will just say morning because I do not think there is anything 'good' about mornings. Fridays is the day that is the both of best worlds. I go to school and see my friends then come home put my bag on the floor and don't come back to it until Sunday when I stress over the homework I procrastinated on. Fridays I can stay up watching Hawaii 5 O and then watch movies until I can no longer keep my heavy eye lids open.

    Hating Mornings  😴
    Loving Friyays!!!😬

What Makes Me Rich

What makes me rich? They ask.
Well it’s the moments,
Sad or Bad,
They make the future and the past,
It’s the sitting on the ground in the living room with blankets underneath us eating dinner and watching movies,
It’s the spending of summer nights staying up camped out in the livingroom watch movies till we all fall asleep,
The countless summers spent with my close family friends in their backyard pool.
It’s my mom having to take Matthew and I to donuts with dudes when my dad wasn’t around.
It’s the family campouts spend playing cards, swimming and talking around the fire,
It’s the countless car trips to Arizona.
It’s the moments I get to spend with my mom and my family,
It’s when I can’t stop laughing when I am with my best friend,
It’s the moments when the people I don’t share blood with are still family,
It’s when my dad moved back,
All the moments that overcome the bad,
It’s the music I listen to when I am sad angry or mad,
It’s the imagination I had and hope to keep,
It’s the running around the house with my little brother,
What about when my whole family was their for my mom and camped out in the waiting room playing cards,
It’s my teachers that care,
Even when they lose hair,
The days where my smile makes other people smile,
When I can be their for my friends when they need me,
My mom coming to every game of mine,
Picking me up when I fall,
It’s the countless baseball games I get to watch that my siblings play in or that we are just watching together,
The relationships I have with my siblings that I wouldn’t give up for the world,
You ask me what makes me rich?
How about being poor,
When people have a bunch of money they can’t get enough,
I am rich even though I am poor,
Because the moments where money would have stopped it from happening.
I love my life because of those memories and wouldn’t change it even if I could.

The bad stuff is going to happen that's just the way it is. The only way to get over the bad stuff is to focus on the good. Pull through the bad by knowing that something good will come. You will get through this even if at the time it seems like the world is crumbling down. In a couple of years you will forget about the bad stuff that happened. It will be just a memory of the past. Instead of making it be the rest of you life being sad or angry about the bad stuff that happened. Focus on the good. Let yourself be happy. YOU DESERVE TO BE HAPPY! No matter what someone says or what you think about yourself. You deserve to be happy and so does everyone around you. We all deserve happiness. Don't spend your whole life worrying about all the what ifs. Spend it enjoying the moments that make all the bad worth it. Enjoy life so that when the bad comes, you know you have something to fight for.

I Am From

I am from my family, with all the broken glass around.

I am from the heartbreak,

The return and the wanted,

The can't have,

The build and tare,

The stubbornness of you and me,

The hole in my heart, 

The broken glass won't fix,

Tears roll down, the glass could piece together,

If only it would move, forget about the crash,

Open to the future.

Learn from mistakes,

Become whole again,

Repair the damage of this hearts desire before the heart gives up completely,

The broken glass and heart both want the same thing, but their voice zipped close, the feeling of brokenness arises,

Stubbornness keeps the feelings imprisoned,

All they want is to be whole,

Silence, 

Ignorance, 

Broken glass,

Severed heart,

Don't risk anything,

The pain is too much,

The future is now and your gone,

Never repairing the true bond,

There is still time,

You can fix, what was broke in the past,

Scars will still be present,

The new feelings will cover like a blanket,

All that has to be done is....

Ditch the pride,

Money, 

And everything else,

Make the time to fix the bond,

The bond that was broken 6 months after the miracle,

When you chose to leave,

Time ticks and away the chances,

You can't repair, you're running out of time,

Soon I will be away,

The bond forever broken,

The pain forever there,

Wishing to change the past.

Where am I from?

I am from the wish of something that could be,

The longing for something more,

The hurt and pain all the same,

This is me,

And I like it.
