Obviously, we all like to be entertained. Whether it's going to concerts, shopping, or going round friends houses and eating every bit of food they own. - Saying that, I'm now surprisingly hungry. -
The worst place to be is standing in an elevator with the "Rock and Roll" music - Pure sarcasm.
The elevator music is more of a hip hop, classic music. The old type. It either puts you to sleep or makes you "praise the lord" that you can actually walk out the elevator soon. What makes it even better is the position of everyone's body language, on the balls of their feet, poised to run out the doors, yet keeping the "More relaxed approach."
I would rather be at a concert. - Saying this, I'm going to a concert sooooooooon! I'm so excited!
In the future I know I'll be doing things I wouldn't dream of doing, well.. I do dream of doing but I wouldn't have thought I could do it. I'm mainly dreaming about going on holiday with my friends, riding along the beach in the sunset, bare back on a horse. That would be amazing.
Normally, people I know would be dreaming of having a job that they would love to do. Cleaning, Teaching, Dancing, Singing Etccc. Well, I'm not a huge fan of cleaning. I doo love the odd organising the kitchen though.
Seeming as I started writing this blog before the concert and it was on the 31st of March, it means I'm running late on updating my blog! I'm sorry, I fully recommend going too see The Running Dogs or even watching them on Youtube! They are amazing, not only do they include everyone within the concert and entertain everyone, they had really good support bands too! Although, I'd advise you too stay out of the mosh pits, people throw themselves into dancing, literally. Me being quite a small height anyway got crushed a bit.

As you can tell I love concerts or just the occasional walks with friends, I'm open to trying anything excluding things to do with height and spiders, I don't work well with things like that.

Doodling challenge
The freedom of doodling is the fact you don't have to work by something specific. It doesn't have to be something particular or precise. Within a video I just watched I saw that not only do people just shut their eyes and draw random lines but they build from it, this makes it abstract and interesting. It's a way to let people interpret it how they want too and giving them freedom within a small bit of art.
Watching the video made me more relaxed about drawing, normally I get so pushed to the point of forcing myself to draw something and mucking it up, this causes me to get even more annoyed. - not that I can actually draw anything but an anime eye, not two.. just one.
I'm going too set myself a challenge of drawing a whole face, care too join me? I would love too see all your outcomes, email them too me, I will write a blog and contain my outcome and maybe a few other's within it, good luck!

Extension to PMA and NMA
I think in order to PMA you need to take minimal notice to negative comments said by other people. Every day you hear more negative comments than positive, probably because you drown out the positives or give negative things more attention. Normally, this is what I would do.
I reflect on what happens, think about it and sometimes I do let it get too me, I suffer with overthinking, I think everyone does at some stage. It's all a way of giving someone else control of emotions - this winds me up even more, therefore giving them even more control, by not reacting to any negative comments or just brushing them off can simply change the way think and therefore giving more of a PMA.
Imagine setting up a dart board and pinning a perfect, crisp, white piece of paper in front of it. You give everyone else a single dart to throw, each dart that hits the piece of paper will leave a mark. This is basically what's happening when you pay attention to the negative comments and insults. Now, imagine you have just put a piece of plastic in front of a new sheet of paper on the board and let people throw the darts, what will happen? Depending on how thick you are going to let the plastic be and how strong you want it too be is down too you. Starting from the beginning like everything else is best. - you can't bake a cake without mixing all the ingredients in order first, can you? If you can please enlighten me and tell me this magical recipe. - The thinnest bit of plastic could probably sustain more than you think, but seeming as it's only the start, it will leave a mark and possibly a crack within the surface (your emotions) it could maybe even penetrate the piece of paper. Learning not to let comments and more negative things get too you will increase the size and strength of that single bit of plastic.
Right now, I'm training my mind to build a net. Only let in the positive comments, letting them stick in my mind and letting the negative comments fly straight back out. Reacting will probably make the situation worse. Normally I try brushing it off instead, I will change the subject, possibly frustrating the person even more. I aim to keep to positive things, remember not everyone is perfect and as a generation we are all learning, we will never stop. Even when we become the older generation, becoming a parent, having new responsibilities, adjusting yourself to simply expand your mind and knowledge and what you think is best for not only yourself but others around you and possibly your future children.
Your mind will work wonders, train it into what might suit your life better, learn what you want to learn and make the best opportunity for your life and it will reflect in other's, give it time and make your imprint in the sand, don't wait for the sea too keep washing it away, you deserve to have the best for yourself, believe it and live it.
