The Look Into Teenage Life Struggles

      Hey Y'all!!! Today I am talking about why being you is so important. Hmmmmm..... Why is being who you are so important? Well, one if you are not who you are than who are you? Two, how are people supposed to get to know you and know if they like you? Those are really good questions that even I have trouble answering. The answer to the first question of who are you is you are acting like a fake person and you are hoping that no one notices. Guess what? I know that you are faking it. The answer to the second one is people won't know if they like the real you or if they like they fake you. The hiding under the mask hurts not only you, it hurts your family. Being who you are is important because you have to know who you are to be that person. It is also important because you get to show that you are better than any one who asks like you did. If you were not who you are than you are playing chameleon. Playing chameleon is basically you blending in with who you are hanging...

Thank you guys who view my blog. You help me express who I am even if it is behind a mask. Thanks again. The title today is this is life. Now, what is life? Life is a concept of living. Okay. Cool. This blog entry is about what struggles we may have with family, friends, or most of the time even Boyfriends/Girlfriends . Now ladies, do Not  be like "Ha! I was right about this topic!" Also guys, just because they are snarky does NOT  mean you get to be snarky right back. Though, ladies, we do have to admit that you have your moments. Guys, you have your moments too. The thing about life is it will and could give you lemons. When life gives you lemons, make a lemon cake and leave people wondering how the heck you made the cake. My first scenario for you is family. Imagine that your family got chosen to play the instruments, but only you and your sister. You play the flute and your sister plays the "drums". The only problem is you play really well and your sister only...

I can't believe how much attention this blog has received. If anyone has any suggestions on how I can make this blog better please contact me at advicefrommcarthy@gmail.com. Thank you again for all of this attention I have been receiving from this blog. It makes me feel so great that I am reaching so many people who have understood these struggles!    Today's title is what to do. What to do when you ask? This is the title of what to do when someone treats you like trash or if someone judges you before they even get to know you. Well Mcarthy, what do you do? Leave it alone and hope someone comes through for you? The answer to both of those questions is one, be yourself, and two, don't let what people say bother you. The way that you treat others that treat you like trash is you treat them better and with more respect. If you ever come across someone that treats you badly it is probably because they are going through a rough time or they see something in you that they see i...

What's up everyone! How can I feel like this is the title of today! I am kind of excited to say that this blog has taken off a lot faster than I personally thought it ever was. What really got me excited was when not only did this blog take off, my self confidence took off with flying height and speed! To be completely honest I actually thought that this content was not going to be good enough. Thank you for all of your love and support. Back to the topic, how can we feel the way we do? The reason why we feel a certain way is because of a person or thing triggered a chemical reaction in your brain making you feel happy, sad, or mad. I am going to get a little sciency and nerdy on you. The chemicals (in your brain) that triggers an emotion are called serotonin, endorphins, oxyctocin, and dopamine. These each have a purpose. Serotonin makes you happy, endorphins puts you in a really good mood and provides you with energy, oxytocin is the love hormone. Basically, it puts you in the mo...

Today, the topic is what's the difference. Whats the difference between life and death? Whats the difference for anything? Well, the difference between life and death is one (life) you are alive and your heart is beating, and the other (death) ends up you are not alive with a heart beat and you are in the ground six feet under. Now why would I want to talk about the difference on anything? Life and death is important because teen death rates have gone up. For every 100,000 American teens 24 of them commit suicide. That is the worse possible news a parent can get. No one wants to hear you died from self harm, no matter how much they don't like you. The difference for everything is one always involves you. The alternative is to remove yourself from that situation by saying, this is not something I want to deal with. You have to remember that you put yourself in that situation. By removing your self from the situation your life becomes easier. You do not need to have a lot of frie...

Hey Y`All,  What is the power of the will? According to Google, the power of the will is the will to carry out one`s decisions, wishes, or plans. What does the power of will have to do with me? I hate to burst your imagination, but I am not perfect in any way, shape, or form. I hope you aren't either because you would not be reading this blog. The power of will has to do with me because we all have that one really lazy person in our lives. That person always gets up at like two in the afternoon. Well, if you're that lazy person give me those sleeping genes! Back to the power of will. You or some one else is denying yourself or their selves the power of the will to get up. You choose to lay in bed and sleep. The will is just you and your body making decisions. Have you ever thought of how much easier it would be if we sat there and did not do anything? It would but it wouldn't. What I mean is, when you make that choice to do absolutely nothing, you aren't getting anywh...

Hi ladies and gentlemen,      Today I am talking about the struggle of juggle. What exactly does the struggle of juggle mean? The struggle of juggle is the balance of school, work, sports, and maybe even your church life. All of these are extremely hard to balance. Maybe you should cut one or more of these out of your daily life. The stress of daily life is more when you work on a lot of stuff. How can we make time for family? We can make time by setting aside a day of a week to hang out with siblings or even chat with family back east over call or video chat. What will happen to my reputation if I don`t do or play what I am known for? Nothing will happen to your reputation. It is definitely NOT going to hurt you or your reputation to get a little family and friend time. Some other struggles of juggling can be trouble keeping good grades because you have too much going on. Maybe your mental health depends on a sport or you getting praise. Its annoying when people sit th...
