Conflict

2006-03-08T18:11:00.000-10:00

Conflict comes to often. I wish I could go forever without having to deal with a conflict. Whether it be with my schedule, my friends, my boyfriend, my family. I do feel however, that without conflict we aren't able to become the people we are now. I know that I've had to live and learn through many of my conflicts. I know I've had some conflicts with money and having to pay bills. I want this certain sweater however I have an electric bill that costs the same. Simple maybe to most people, but I wish I could say the same. I have a personal conflict with money and spending too much of it. I hope that all conflicts that I run into I am able to overcome and learn from them. Someone once said, "What doesn't kill us will make us stronger".

Relationships

2006-03-08T18:06:00.000-10:00

Without relationships, I know I would be lost. I love being around people and creating special relationships with them. I don't think you can have the same relationship with anyone because everyone is so different. That is what makes relationships so special. Some of the special relationships that I have had over the years are one with my family, friends , teachers, neighbors. There are so many. My family, we all have a different personality, which makes sometimes conflicts. However, without them I would be lost. I have a special and different relationship with each of my family members. My friends as well. There are just certain things that you can do with some friends that you wouldn't do with others. That is what makes relationships so special.

Interpersonal Communication

2006-03-08T18:02:00.000-10:00

Interpersonal Communication to me is a way to talk to someone through words, looks, or some sort of signal. I have special communication styles with many different people. My boyfriend for example, tells me that sometimes I give him, "the look", and he knows that he's in trouble. Good! He should then! My friends and I also have a weird communication, sometimes we will make up words that are just ridiculous but we have a good time with it. Also my friend understand me when I slur my words. I have a terrible time with that. Sometimes someone who isn't around me often will say, "What did she just say?" and my friends will be able to interpret for me. Communication is key in life!

Interpersonal Trust

2006-03-08T17:33:00.000-10:00

Interpersonal Trust to me is very important. Especially in relationships, no matter if its a relationship between you and your boyfriend/girlfriend, or family, or friends. Trust is the basis of all relationships. I know I've had some problems with trusting people. Boyfriends cheating on me, makes you loose your trust for them very quickly. Then when you don't have trust what do you have? A worried person that isn't in an unhealthy relationship. Trust is so easy to loose and so hard to gain. I know when someone has deceived me I think it is very hard to think that they won't do it again. You can loose someone's trust within seconds, for example, your friend tells you a secret but then you tell your friend and she finds out, she won't trust you anymore and it only took a matter of seconds for you to loose that. My words of advise with this, be true to your loved ones and then you should get that in return.

Honesty

2006-01-30T17:04:00.000-10:00

My personal views on honesty are mixed. I enjoy an honest person .. however, at times I have problems being honest with others. I believe that it is something that I can work on. The things I lie about are meaningless, "Yes.. I took the trash out".. when Im thinking to myself, "Why did you just say that?" Mostly I lie to my mother, I have a problem with lying to her. She likes to get mad at me, so I'd rather just tell her what she wants to hear so I don't have to hear it from her. I think deep down she knows I'm lying to her. Its truely viscious circle between the two of us. Will it ever end?
