I want to be able to be honest with myself and not deny things I'm feeling or who am I - but that's the struggle!! I'm indecisive and don't know what I want, or pretend to want things because they're expected or normal or because I don't want to hurt someone's feelings. In some ways I've conquered that over the weekend. I said NO and admitted exactly why I said no. For the first time in a long while I was honest with myself and didn't go throguh with something that wasn't me. Heck, I'm talking all cryptic-like I know, but there are people who know I come on here that I wouldn't want reading throguh it!!! (from real life - don't worry y'all I trust ya's!!) Anyway, I still have far to go in figuring out who I am and liking myself for whoever I may be... Part of that is backing off friends who I cross the line with emotionally sometimes. I don't mean to, but I get to close to some friends...friends who don't see me "like that", if that makes sense....heck, I don't even know if I see them "like that" but I sure as hell treat them like it soemtimes Work!! I'm gonna work my ass off to earn money for things like a trip round Europe and the states (that's right, Xena Con Burbank 2010 baby!!!). Uni. Distinctions all round man!!! That's the aim this semester. And aiming to stay enthused for the duration and not procrastinate. Candybar of MHOIR \| PLA Brat \| Keeper of Gabrielle's Scrolls Banner courtesy of my Brabsy

Gah, I need to work on this too, snikkerz. My problem is that I can be so bloody passive sometimes - not because I'm necessarily weak or submissive, but because I genuinely dislike conflict and would often rather make my own life a harder for the sake of someone else's being easier. I need to stop. It's a nice sentiment and all - making peace with the world, I mean - but not at the cost of my own identity. I don't mean to, but I get to close to some friends...friends who don't see me "like that", if that makes sense....heck, I don't even know if I see them "like that" but I sure as hell treat them like it soemtimes I understand this too well. I prefer to have a few intense and important friends than heaps of acquaintances, and inevitably there are times when the shades of colour between close friends and too-close friends blur. Uni.

I had that goal for uni too - I wanted to get DI's in each class last semester... I ended up getting two HD's!!!! Whooo!!! So it's totally do-able! WOOHOOO 2010!!!!!! How much does that cost? I could do that. I could work for you. I could make a lot of money for you and make a lot of money for me too, and how much does that cost? I'll do it! that's fine! Nothing you say can hurt me either. Nothing hurts me 'cause I'm a Capricorn.

Warrior-in-Training Posts: 156 (03/04/08 10:26 PM) Butt-Kicker Supreme Reply Quote More My Recent Posts Message Me Connection Blocking Invite Ignore User's Posts Report Post	hmmm... ok so my goals for '08/'09... 1. seriously progress in taekwondo. the club i do it in through my university doesn't have practice often enough for my taste, so my goal next year is to find us some space so we can practice more than twice a week. also to be less freaked out at my next tournament so i don't get my butt kicked again! ohoh also i would like to do that 360 roundhouse without falling down. 2. get through organic chemistry with my sanity as well as a decent grade... although i'm starting to think i'm going to have to sacrifice one or the other. and that goes the same for all my classes actually... 3. get an internship... somewhere... for the summer. 4. figure out what i actually want to do with my life other than stunt doubling. when you're little people tell you you can be anything if you put your mind to it, but their song sure changes when you're in college and all you want to do is jump off high stuff and do flips and get paid for it. 5. not to give up on my stunt doubling dream, even when all my advisors and my parents tell me it's ridiculous. 6. stop being so... single. 7. finally master the 1 1/2 back tuck off the 3 meter diving board for my diving class without doing a belly flop (ouch.) i'm sure i have others, but these are all the things on the forefront of my mind right now... a little lame, i know...

Long-term goals like that elude me, so although my life feels like it zig-zags far outside the box of normalcy, my goals are often impulsive and short-term. Someday I really need to kick it up a notch and work towards something big. Anything. I have little doubt I could achieve whatever I wanted, I just have no clue yet what that is. stop being so... single. We should set up a find-a-Xenite dating thread!

My goal is to try and keep my life balanced. Also, side goal is to start preparing for the Peace Corps. I think I have more- but I can't think of them at the moment.

Two Star General Posts: 833 (03/05/08 5:10 PM) Reply Quote More My Recent Posts Message Me Connection Blocking Invite Ignore User's Posts Report Post	Hmm nice idea, my goals are still similar to the ones i posted in the new years reselution thread, but ill update and elaborate a bit To be more healthy (seems like everyones :P) - Ive never been a particularly healthy person so its really hard starting now at 19. I really love all my fatty food so its really hard to say no to them now I just really crave unhealthiness and the constraints I have to put on myself to actually diet. Im trying a yoga class and swimming, and Id like to see about getting a cheap second hand bike and start cycling, but its something adults dont really do around my area so I really dont wanna look like a prat. I want to be a better person, see I feel conflicted all the time, like I dont know who I am. Or who I want to be even. On the one hand, I really wanna be nice but on the other hand, Im quite bulshy and wont stand for any crap. Id like to take some time out to actually get to know the person I want to be aand figure out how I can better that person - If that makes sence to anyone. I really wanna try harder at uni and that means putting in alot of extra time. I know I could do it, and I know i could totally improve all my marks but I just need to have the motivation to go in an extra day and study the full time and actually try to concentrate, which im finding pretty difficult at the moment. My last one is the May Con in London. I cant wait for that and I'd love to actually go down there and make friends and try not to be too shy or too over-close with people. I think it will be a totally extreme experience, even travelling to london without an adult (yep still talk like im 12 :P) never mind spending a weekend away in a very noisy city. Well thats all I can think of at the moment, if you've made it through my ramblings, thanks Without Gabrielle There Would Be NO Xena!

And I hope you all know that we are all behind you!!! Dating thread... ROFL! Can I be cupid or' Dite? cause I've already found my Soul Mate. moosh moosh sap sap yeah yeah I'll shut up now. hee! cantfoolthequeen (whats your nickname??) Stick to your guns. You can make it. People will always tell you what you shouldn't do if they are afraid you will fail... so you just gotta prove them wrong!!! I BELIEVE IN YOU!!!!! Come to think of it, I don't think you would be able to find one person on these boards who DOESN'T believe in you!! So chase your dreams girl... you have us behind you 100%!!! Keep us up to date on what you're doing! What sort of stunt training have you done? High Diving sounds great - I was too scared to do that on my stunt course, I'm useless in water (although I did end up getting my Bronze Medallion, which was a big achievment) so high diving sooo doesn't do it for me! lol! I love regular high falls though.... My best is 35ft... scared the %%+ out of me, but so keen to do it again! I love high falls so much... the rush of falling, and being in complete control (hopefully) of your body as it turns in the air... gah! I guess that's what High Diving is too... but you can keep the water at the end! hahahaha I posted some pics of my high falls over on the post your pic thread, if you wanna see? We are hella similar, with stunting goals, and TKD... Where abouts in the world do you live?? I'm in Canberra, Australia. We have a kick ass club that trains 3 nights a week, and then a group of us from training all get together on the weekend and train Sat and Sun as well. I love TKD so much. sigh* I have a grading in 5 weeks!!!! We should find a TKD smiley. haha Good luck with finding a hall! You know if it's not cold where you are, you could always find an oval, or grassy area and train on that? not always easy to move your feet on grass, but worth considering if you wanna practise more? Or practise alone! I have some AWESOME kicking drills I could show you (found them on youtube!) You should film yourself training and we can trade tapes and stuff!! grin You're yellow belt, right? (sooo hope i'm not wrong!) I have another goal!!! At the grading after this one, I have to break boards! I am DETERMINED to break!!! Some people think I won't cause I'm so small and petite and don't look strong at all, but I say to them!!! rawrrr I WILL break that board!!! grrrr XeniteMarine look forward to hearing your goals! TNG - PEACE CORPS - SO COOL!!!! Good luck!!!!!!!!! Looks like you're following the word of Eli then, eh? smirk hugs GirlWithACharkem (whats ur nickname??) Cycling is the best - you should totally get into it! So what if you're the only adult that does it - I bet they'll all feel guilty that you're exercising AND saving the world a few car fumes!!! GO YOU! Maybe start a journal or something (if you haven't already) where you can reflect on your feelings and stuff, and work out the person you are. I find reading does that too, as you analyse how you interperet events in stories, and working out how you feel about things means working out who you are. It's pretty cool. You're so lucky to be going to the London Con!! I hope you have the BEST time!! I wish I was going!!! le sigh How much does that cost? I could do that. I could work for you. I could make a lot of money for you and make a lot of money for me too, and how much does that cost? I'll do it! that's fine! Nothing you say can hurt me either. Nothing hurts me 'cause I'm a Capricorn.
