Alexa Adults
Here I am. Severely caffeinated at 10:24am, rolling my eyes at these Friday morning “momagers,” talking over my max volume Sara Bareilles, contemplating my life, per usual. This life series is continuously challenging me and now advancing to a new extreme. (Right, Alexa’s tragic story gets more interesting part 24k.)
At 3 years old, I started my adulting adventure. The exact reason I am 24 years old and stuck with this wise soul. Maybe in one of my past lives, I actually was a queen and figured “If you can’t successfully rule the country, you must rule everyone/thing in your path.”
Alexa Deals
I have stereotyped myself as a dealer. I deal with things, I deal with idiots, I make deals, I don’t deal. Catch the pattern? Deliberately trying to present deals that often turn to destroying my mental health day by day. #dramatic I know.
This has taught me to be more aware. I realize when I need to chill, evaluate, and even when I need to ask for help. (Is this what adulting feels like?) Now I definitely don’t always follow through, but learning to prioritize yourself is a larger task than my unread text messages.
“A neverending experience for search of life clarity.” - Life
The purpose of this presentation to “dealing,” is that people often confide in me for life difficulties and advice to overcome. I’ve committed my life to helping people persevere with guidance. Which is what makes me feel purpose and what I’m truly most passionate about. Why? Because I wish someone would have done that for me through my dark days. (TBC below and prepare for the complications because it’s about to get real.) My curiosity always overpowers my deadlines. Or maybe I’m psychic or something, I don’t know, but here I am. My intuition is uniquely blessed and I’ve learned to be a full time listener. I understand people and aspire always to think logically vs emotionally. I guess this assists in my constant realism.
Alexa Learns
This is rough for me to admit. But considering I constantly put myself on blast and lost all filter in 2017, I want you to look at this as NOT NORMAL and you shouldn’t have to experience learning the way I did. (I told you all the extremes.) I spent 6 years of my life mentally in a black hole. I refer to this time as “when I died.” I can’t even remember 90% of the experiences, feelings, and a few of the proudest moments in my life, because of this black out. It’s disappointing. It is definitely hard to say out loud. I’m still climbing out and building steps everyday. This comparison is how I connect to people. I will only involve myself with positive steps. Even an attempted act at bettering is better than settling for rock bottom. If I feel suffocated or even worse uninvested, I fall back into darkness. I can now speak confidently and openly about this 9 years later! It’s a journey and a challenge. I also wouldn’t want it any other way. It has made me wise. It has inspired strength. It has helped me appreciate every moment. Appreciate what life throws at you. Appreciate myself.
Motivationally I will continuously encourage you to stand up for yourself and be selfish. I am a selfless person with extreme selfishness in who I let in my life. As it should be.
Alexa Laughs
This is a joke. In many ways, but mostly the “I try to be a normal human one time and here’s what happens,” best kind of way.
Alexa Dictionary:
Emotionally Unstable Crush (EUC): Unstable boy (in unlimited ways) between the ages of 25 and 30 that desires a smart, attractive, nice, independent, cool, basically ideal girl, but can barely do his laundry and can’t financially support his drinking problem but pretends he’s a successful entrepreneur. Also pronounced as YUCK, FML, GTFO, NOT BAE, OMG. #ouch
Me (From what I’ve seen in movies): Cry. Buy the wine. 10,000 calorie challenge.
Also Me: Post all the screenshots to your half a million followers and ruin his life.
Well, contradicting both emotional/normal/crazy girl suggestions I went with the “I don’t care” card. Due to the fact that I just don’t care. I don’t care to deal with people who don’t better me. Sometimes a EUC will manipulate you to thinking he is stable. He’ll like the idea of you. Even though normally EUC aren’t even charming and semi average you will fall for it. My diagnosis of this experiment is it was fun but not great fun. It was entertaining but not anything special. Also I lost a phone charger out of this gig.
Therefore a teenager introduced me to the language of 2017 and apparently I should “ghost” EUC.
Reasons to “Ghost” Negativity
-You’re as happy as you want to be
-You’re as positive as the people you surround yourself with
-Ghosting is so 2018
-And 2018 is your year
-Breathing is easier
-So is sleeping and everyone loves their bed
-Netflix is better
-Life is better
-You are your best
It’ll all work out.
Alexa Survives
Most days I blog about me experiencing my talent. My life challenges due to my talent, and social anxiety due to once again, this crazy talent I somehow woke up with. Today, I blogged about my outlook on how my talent has made me. A stronger, smarter, carefree, not dance teacher, somewhat lost, mostly happier Alexa Moffett.
