Balance

Hellooooo everyone! I hope you're having a great start of fall! Did you guys do anything special? :D

I'm sorry this post is pretty late. My niece wanted me to play with her super bad that she started crying, which made me feel horrible, so I played with her for a while... XDD I really wanted to since her and my sister are moving on Friday. I'd be okay if they were moving just like 10-30 minutes away, but no. They're moving like 10 hours away. So I'm extremely sad about that. :c

Anyways, let's get going with todays blog post!

Animal Jam... I don't think there's really any way to describe Animal Jam. It's a place where friendships are made, friendships are broken, a place where people drain a bunch of money into, a place where people are on constantly... With all these good times and bad times, all the joy and all the drama, it can be hard to find balance. A balance between real life, and the virtual world.

Since my sister and niece have been with us and I've started school back up, I've really taken a step back from Animal Jam, which I really felt like I needed to do for quite a long time. For years and years, I poured so much time and money into Animal Jam, and what I've found is that it never satisfies. Think of all those hours we could of spent focusing on our family, or focusing on school, or pursuing a future career.

I'm not saying that we all just need to quit Animal Jam and never be on computers again. What I'm saying is we need to find a good balance between real life and Animal Jam. Just saying, "Oh, I'm just gonna be on computers for two hours everyday" has never worked for me. But instead, pursuing something, focusing on something, has really helped me cut back from Animal Jam. For me, that's Jesus and Christian music. Those are two of the most important things to me, and really focusing on that has helped me not think so much on Animal Jam. And really, when I started to cut back on Animal Jam, I felt more enjoyment in the game. Seeing my friends on Animal Jam felt more joyful then routine.

So, I want to clarify, I am not quitting Animal Jam, and probably won't for quite a long time, and I'm not saying that's what you have to do either. But if we find balance between the things we love, we'll just love them all the more. Plus it'll give us time for family, school, and the things we just love to do. Just wait and see what will happen! I'm telling you, it will be so worth it, and so freeing to break out of your daily routine, and into something God has in store for you. Pray, and ask Him to reveal something for you to pursue. He has great things in store!

Rare Item Monday!

Hey, Jammer’s! It’s CoolCat here with another post! Unfortunately today’s post won’t be very long. My dog has been sick over the weekend and we just took him to the vet today, and I am very tired from my busy day. But today’s post should still be interesting! I’m pretty happy with today’s Rare Item Monday items. But without further ado let’s get started!

Today’s Rare Item Monday from Animal Jam is the Rare Striped Bow Tie!

Thoughts: I really love this weeks Rare Item Monday! It’s probably my favorite one from Animal Jam in awhile. It’s just a basic blue and purple bow. It’s pretty simple but that’s what makes it great! Overall I rate Animal Jams Rare Item Monday a 10! Now let’s move onto Play Wilds Rare Item Monday.

Today’s Rare Item Monday from Play Wild are the Rare Cat Ears!

Thoughts: I love Play Wilds Rare Item Monday as well! I absolutey love cats, I have four of them! This Rare Item Monday is purrfect for someone like me! My only complaint is that I wish it was black instead of red, that would have been really cool!

Overall I rate Play Wilds Rare Item Monday. 7.5! What did you think of today’s items? Which one was your favorite? Mine was the striped bow tie!

Here is today’s verse.


“Do not throw away your confidence; it will be richly rewarded. You need to presevere so that when you have done the will of God, you will receive what he has promised.” -Hebrews 10:35-36

As always, bye Jammer’s! And -Jam On!-

Art Challenge In One Minute!

Hello hello everyone! I'm sorry this post is pretty late. Me and my mom went to the movies to see God Bless The Broken road, which was such a great movie! It's about a lady who looses her husband in the war, and also having foreclosure on her house a few years later. She's hurting a lot, and takes most of her anger out on her daughter, because she doesn't know why God would do this to her. Anyways, long story short, she reunites with her mother in law who she was really bitter towards, gets a small house, starts singing in church, and falls in love with a race car driver. c:
I feel like I explained that really badly.
Anyways.......
You can watch the trailer and read a better description here. XDD http://godblessthebrokenroad.com

Since we've been at the movies, I still need to read my Bible, so I kinda need to hurry on this post so I can read my Bible before we eat dinner.

Last week on my blog, Housemom418 posted an art challenge she did with her sister! They only had one minute to draw a picture. I couldn't really think of a post topic, so I decided I'd do something similar to what she did, except I don't really have anyone to do it with, soooo it's just me. XDD (Click here to see what she did!)

Let's begin!

The first drawing I'm going to do iiiiiiiiiiis,

A cross with flowers on it!

Starting the timer for one minute.

Wow........ I even used the automatic line thingy, and only got a dot as a flower... Oooookay this was not a good start.

How bout a Christmas tree next?

This is vury sad.

No topper and one small little ornament...

Let's do a bunny...

The poor thing has no eyeballs. D:

Last one! I'm gonna draw headphones because why not?

I think this drawing turned out the best! They're supposed to be Beats headphones.

Which one do you think was the best? Comment down below!
