A Glance | Original Poem by Shaye Patton



A Glance



Wanting My hands interlaced with Your's
while I stare into the oblivion
that is Your eyes
which cause a flood, 
a rush
of every word ever spoken,
every memory ever shared

Your eyes disappearing with a glance.

A whirlwind of emotion
punching me in the pit of my stomach
one look,one glance
and it's back again

your turn | Original poem by Shaye Patton

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
giving yourself away
to a world unkown
hidden behind fake smiles
and endless lies
 
with a social life
only visible
in the sense of a screen
 
with a long pipe
as your new friend
telling gossip
of "he said, she said"
 
you gave yourself away
 
with only a glint
of hope, and one turn
turn quick
before you reach the point
of no return

Search for Happiness 24/7 | RandomShaye

Due to some recent drama, stress, and anxiety I haven't quite been feeling my absolute best.

I would class myself as a pretty happy person, but although I am happy now, I'm not nearly as happy as I was about 2 years ago.

About 3 years ago I started going to public school vs my previously being home-schooled. Now with public school comes new friends, clubs, school work and lots of drama and stress. Although I love my friends and my school, I do feel that my positivity level has changed.

With school not being the only thing in my life that can be hectic, I find my self not always being very positive and just not as happy as I could be. Therefore I decided to do some research and get inspired to make a few changes.

Now I did a previous blog with a similar tone, that had a list of things that I was going to change, but I wasn't very successful. Therefore I decide to re-assess my goals, priorities and willingness for a, hopefully, more successful outcome.

So here are a few things that my personal experience and research proves to make one's day and mindset positive and happy.

1, Exercise
          When one exercises, endorphins are released in the brain, which is a natural happy chemical. Apart from scientifically making one happier, exercising is a great way to clear your head and get in shape.

2. Healthy Eating
         Similarly to exercise, when your body feels good physically, it also feels good mentally.

3.One Step At A Time
       Having anxiety is never a good thing. There's no point in constantly focusing on the future because you miss the present. Therefore when I start flipping out about college, I need to chill, because I'm only missing out on enjoying high school.

4, Have a Cuppa and unplug
        Now although tea has alot good antibiotics and awesome things in it, the simple action of making a cup of tea and sipping it is quite relaxing. I normally drink alot of tea, but I'm going to try to start making it more of an event. At least one cup of tea I have thoughout the day, I'm going to make then go outside put all my electronics away and enjoy. Reflect on the day and escape the nonsense that social media can create.

5. Keep Dreaming
      Although I'm trying not to stress about the future, I do think its a good idea to set goals and have dreams for yourself. Along with having these dreams, also have the mind set that everyone else's opinions don't matter, in the end it's your life.

6. Be Quiet
      Although we're are all guilty of gossiping, it really does have a big impact on our life and mood. Although it's good to talk and vent, constant gossip just creates more negative vibes in our life.

7. Sleep
      Alot of stress is caused from being overwhelmed. It is definitely easier to deal with issues and drama when your in a healthy state of being awake. And sleep is great!

8. Read or Watch a Film
       Being a part of someone else's story is a great way to think about what you want in your life. It can also be a great little escape into a beautiful romance or fantastical world.

9. Breathe
    It's a simple thing, but breathing is glorious. Taking a step back and calming down is a great way to not freak out.

10. Smile
       Having positive thoughts and making other people smile is the greatest way to have a happy life filled with positive outcomes.


So that's my list. I'm definitely going to start focusing on what I want and " practicing what I preach".

Well I hope you've enjoyed this post, but I have to go to bed now or I might just fall asleep while typing. But I hope you've enjoyed and until next time, Stay Random.

Everything Happens for a Reason | RandomShaye

With highschool graduation right around the corner, and college fast approaching, life hits you in the face and it all becomes real.

Since the sixth grade I had ,or I thought I had, my life after highschool all planned out.

I would attend a well regaurded University, such as Princeton or Havard, then while studying start to network in the entertaiment industry and BAM!
 I would become a succesful actress/ lawyer who would have her own talk show as well creating a charitable organization that bettered the world in some way.

But if I were to tell my counselors that they'd laugh in my face. And apart from that, my views have changed a bit.

Yes, I still want to be an actress and work in the "entertainment industry", I would still like to go to law school(believe it or not) and I will always want to make a positive make on the world, but I now understand that it isn't that easy.

Princeton  is never going to happen because I'm from the south, never stepped foot in a private school, and the highest I've gotten on my ACT is a 26.

Now not being able to go to Princeton isn't that big of a deal, there are other schools,but in general I get an overwhelming feeling when I think about life after highschool. Although, I will contiue strive to achieve my goals no matter what, I always have that fear that nothing will ever pan out and I'm going to fail.

What if I don't major in the right thing? What if I can never land a job in the industry? What if I don't get into law school? How can I work in the industry and go to law school? Why can't I pick one career like a normal person?

But then I stop and think about what my parents have told me for ages...

EVERYTHING HAPPENS FOR A REASON

 Although, thousands upon thousands of positive and negative things happen to us in our lifetime, I do believe that all happen for a reason, even if it is negative. Throughout my mere 18 years of life, I have experienced a lot; at least I think I have. Although there are others in the world that have had more tragic experiences or have seen more success in life; I would never change anything that has happened to me. My past, every waking second, good or bad, has shaped who I am today. I know that 10 years I will probably be different,but the reason I grow and change is because of the things that has happened in my life.

A good, although cliché, example is the fact that my life and my family’s life was affected by hurricane Katrina. At the time all I wished for was for things to go back to normal. To have my house, my school, my friends back.
It was hard being uprooted at the age of 10 from everything I’ve ever known. I had to move to a new city, new state, and new school. My life started over. It was hard, no doubt, but looking back I’m oddly grateful Katrina hit my hometown.
There was a significant amount of tragedy and hardships, but without it I would have never left this town. Being forced to move, and loosing everything gave me a new appreciation for my life, the world around me, and what’s valuable to me.
 Therefore without that happening who knows who or where I’d be. The point being, that I do believe everything happens for a reason.
At first it might not be clear why, but in the end a person is the sum of their experiences.
 
Therefore, no matter what happens after highschool, it'll be ok. In the end veything will sort it self out.
 
Well I guess that's enough for this angsty, senior rant. I know I haven't written in a while, but senior year has been,like I said,overwhelming.
I am going to try to start writing more, and hopefully about non-school realated things. I'm going to try to start writing about other topics, but hopefully me sharing my "Senior Year" thoughts help.  I feel like I'm not alone on this one, I think alot of seniors struggle with "life after high school" so  if you've stumbled upon this blog, hopefully it's been helpful.

it just hurt sometimes | Original Poem by Shaye Patton


 
 
it just hurts sometimes
 
 
i've tried so hard
to be there
for You
i've tried so hard
to understand
for You
 
it was just us
no Her
no Them
then it was gone
 
You've surpassed me
sociably
academically
even through love
 
although i'm proud
more proud then,
ever imaginable
more proud then,
ever understandable
 
but, it just hurts sometimes.
 
i've tried so hard
to be there
for You
i've tried so hard
to understand
for You
 
yet, You won't talk
to me
You won't let
me in
 
but, it just hurts sometimes.
 
i know i'm behind
sociably
academically
and through love
 
but, I am still here
for you
I will always be here
for you
 
so, it just hurts sometimes.
 
when You won't talk
to me
You won't let
me in
 
 
 
 

Your Eyes | Original Poem by Shaye Patton

 
 
 
Your Eyes
 
 
 
 
I long for that glance
a look
one moment with no words
just
your eyes
 
 
your eyes
telling a story
the way they light up
like a million stars
 
 
I could stare in their deep color
endlessly
with glints of laughter,
passion,
sadness
 
your eyes

The Struggle is Real | Trying to Balance Life | RandomnessOfShaye

How does Beyonce do it?

She is truely a goddess, an angle sent from above with the power to be Fierce, Fabulous and Successful with the same 24 hours a day I have. See I have the same hopes and dreams as any 18 year old girl to be as AH-MAZING as Beyonce, but quite frankly I can't figure out how she does it.

I currently have alot going on in my life right now:
School
Family
Friends
Netflix
Fitness
Dance
Extra Cirricuculars
Nutella Consumption
This Blog
YouTube
Sleep

As you can see they are all equally as important and awesome!

So recently, as in the past 2 weeks, I've struggled to do everything I need to do. Mainly involving my YouTube channel.

Now my channel is pretty much my baby, currently it's the type of baby that cries alot and isn't potty trained yet. And although that was a really bad comparison, it's kind of true.

I LOVE to make videos, but I hate editing(and I'm really bad at it too), therefore I tend to record videos, but never upload any. On top of that my camera is P-O-O-P! So I've been recently just using my webcam, which is only slightly better quality. AND on top of ALL that, I feel like I never have time!

Now at this point you're probably thinking," Like OMG stahp complaining, if you don't like it don't do it!!!"

But, think again!

See I'm writing about all the bad things so they can be fixed.

I tend to talk alot about what I want to do and how I'm going to do it, but I feel like although I put forth some effort, it's never enough.

So after watching, the very inspiring Disney Film, 'The Princess&The Frog'  I've realized I need to work harder. Tiana didn't get her restaurant by just wishing she had one, but by working for it.

Which is why I am going to start working to organize my life in a healthy balance where I have time for both YouTube and Friday Night Football games with my friends. I've also to put all the money I saved this summer towards a new Camera, instead of shoes.

I think that sometimes we all need to take a step back and look at how we manage our time. Although Netflix is lovely, getting outside and going for a jog can be just as nice.

So this week I challenge you to take a look at your life. Is there anything you want to focus on more? Anything you should not spend so much time on?

With that moment of self-reflection, I'm going to sign off because I'm actually in Computer Class right now.

Until next time, Stay Random!!!

P.S

Update on last weeks "Little Changes":
I've been sleeping more, but on on the weekends. As for everything else... I'm just going to restart them. I kind of failed. ;)

21 Days of New Habits | RandomnessOfShaye


When I woke up this morning I had all the intentions to blog about school, and how so far senior year is starting to look up for me. Turns out that stepping out of my comfort zone has presented me with alot of great opportunities. Although it would make a pretty good blog post, I think it would make an even better YouTube video. Which is why I'll be recording that tomorrow afternoon.

At this point, I was pretty stoked that I had a video idea for this week, I was also bummed because I was now at a lost for a blog idea. Until I thought about school.

See in exactly one month I will have to participate in my school's Senior Ring Day Ceremony and in one month and two weeks I will be attending my senior homecoming dance.  Although these are both really exciting, I have one small problem.  Currently I am currently not feeling my absolute best on the whole "Confidence Spectrum" of things.

See, I'm currently a bit chubby in the middle. Now, before you start going on some crazy rant about "body confidence and loving who you are". CHILL. I'm not calling myself fat or saying that I hate my body, all I'm saying is I want to be a bit fitter.

Now, for the most part I try to lead a fairly healthy lifestyle. I eat decently(but I am guilty to eating a bit too much of nutella and french bread), I exercise regularly and I attempt to listen to my body when rest is needed. To be honest these things have showed positive results for my body. Just in the past month I lost five pounds, but I also feel that I could do a bit better.

I'm not looking for some crash diet to partake in before homecoming, but simply to create some new, better habits for myself. Given the fact that research says that it takes 21 days to form a habit, I should be well set before my schools formal.

Therefore here are a few small changes that I'm going to try to make everyday:

1) Stretch/ Yoga for at least 30 min. ( I am a dancer and honestly it'll not only help my performance but will prevent injury)

2) Keep track of water intake (I normally only drink water but I do feel that sometimes I drink WAY too much or WAY too little, So i'd like to regulate that)

3) Go to bed an hour earlier ( I need more beauty rest)

4) Eat more fruit&veggies, less bread ( Like most, I LOVE bread and although I LOVE fruit too, I don't think I eat nearly enough)

5) Read More ( although I love the internet I do think it's really helpful to relax without social media and just snuggle with a good book)

6) Dink more tea ( tea makes everything better)


So with these few habits, I think that by the time Homecoming rolls around I will not only be Fitter, Healthier but also Happier. And honestly just the best Me I can be. 

So with that I encourage you to try to make little changes in your day that will lead you to a better YOU!

Until next time, Stay Random

Lovin' Life | RandomnessOfShaye

Ever have those lovely moments of perfect clarity when you realize how wonderful life is?

Well I had one of those moments this weekend. Honestly, all weekend.

This weekend started Friday with my high-school's first football game of the season. I arrived early to help paint some of the guy's chest with our school's color and some of the football player's names. At first I was pretty nervous because I kinda get really shy sometimes and I didn't want to be aco-taco in front of a bunch of handsome shirtless guys! To my surprise, I actually was pretty fabulous( if I do say so myself)!!! I wasn't shy or awkward AND I actually got to paint this super gorgeous guy and I even had a lovely chat with him. I guess you could say I blossomed, came out of my shell, transformed into a social butterfly!

oh. and my highschool actually won the football game. Which NEVER happens!

As for Saturday. Well I didn't do much except have a nice little cuddle with my dogs because I didn't quite feel well.

On the bright side my dad, who's work requires him to be on the road for 2 weeks at a time, was able to come home this weekend. So he arrived on Saturday night so that was lovely, because I really miss him when he's away.

Sunday was quite lovely. The day consisted of my family, my pool, a good book, and BBQ. It was the first day in about a week where it wasn't extremely hot out and wasn't raining. So the weather was perfect, at least according to Louisiana standards.

Today. Well first of all it's Monday and I don't have school! So that's awesome!

Pretty much today has been a day of tiding, hanging with the fambam and catching up on my internet duties(making videos,blogging, and watching British YouTubers).

For the most part the weekend has been pretty chill, nothing that exciting, but I think that's why it made me so happy. I just love the fact, that normally when I am happiest it's in the moments that are just averagely beautiful. Spending time with family, reading a good book, or just watching YouTube videos.

I suppose that it truly is the little things that are most important.

With that, I leave you with some pictures from my weekend :)


Until next time, stay random

Silence | Original Poem by Shaye Patton

Silence



deafening
the sound of silence
the weight of no words
holding one under
the sea of sounds

racing
the thoughts in my head
tucked neatly away
years of hiding
resurface

the wall of protection
built brick by brick
with fake smiles
and the words,
"I am ok"

SILENCE

a never-ending cycle
never gone
always there
reminiscing

every piece of your life
 left behind

every decision 
yet to make

every moment you
not willing to share

silence 

the truth no one wants to hear

Infinite |Original Poem by Shaye Patton

Infinite



A thousand faces pass me everyday
They come in pairs
crowds
alone.

All being an infinite number of worlds away
no one being truly alike.

Yet, an overwhelming sense of emotion flows
through all veins
pulsing with anxiety

A sense of unknown
Unknown of the past
present
future.

All with an infinite amount of possibilities

Advice from a Handsome College Guy | Starting Senior Year

This is the last night of my 2014 summer vacation.

 Although I am pretty bummed that I will no longer be able to sleep to twelve in the morning and wear pajamas all day, I am kinda looking forward to this school year.  SENIOR YEAR. Aren't we suppose to be excited? 

Well to be quite honest, before about 11:00 this morning I wasn't as excited as most of my fellow 2015 graduates.  

See this past summer this looming,dark,frightening thought has been in the back of my head. WHAT COMES AFTER HIGH-SCHOOL? Although I talked about similar subjects in a previous blog,and attempted to overcome it, I still had doubt about my confidence in the subject.

I feel like senior year it finally starts to sink in that life is about to really happen, and you are in full control. There are other variables at play but in the end every decision you make takes you on a new path in life. I mean, it's a lot to handle.

But, like I said in my previous blog, I don't have much time to waste on being scared. So I have made attempts at trying to do things that I feel set me in the right direction for what I want in life, like this blog and my YouTube channel.  Even after that, thinking about senior year and life after high school was like walking into the abyss of unknown.

Until today, at approximately 11:00 am.

My friend who graduated about two years ago  just recently was hired where I work for the summer until he goes back to university at the end of the month. Over the past week that I've had the pleasure of working with him, he has given me some of the best advice I have ever received. 

1. Drama ends in high school, so avoid it 
2. If you're looking for love, you're never going to find it
3. Go with the flow and have fun
4. If you want something, don't stop working toward it, NO MATTER WHAT!
5. Bruno Mars makes everything a bit better

Now, I know that this advice is cliche and you've probably heard it thousands of times from your parents,grandparents,aunts,uncles, and cheesy 80s movies, and I know that these are all reliable sources for great advice, but for some reason it was different.  This advice being told from a 19 year old guy I went to high school with, for some reason, just resonated with me.

My friend, let's call him 'A' for the purposes of this blog(not that even knows this exist) 

My friend ,well, is average. Let me explain.

I was fortunate enough to enroll late my sophomore year and be scheduled in Fine Arts Survey, the only class left as an elective. Now, I was excited because I like art, but at my school only seniors take that class as a last resort for an art credit. This meant I was the only sophomore in a class full of seniors. Initially I was terrified but to my surprise that's when I first met 'A'. He was one of the first people who talked to me in that class. He has been one of the friendliest people I know, a social butterfly.

Now we weren't besties or anything but he was my friend.

'A' wound up dating one of my friends at the time, worked with him in theater productions, became friends with his younger brother, and now, I work with him.

From this you can see that he's just an average guy anyone would've gone to school with, apart from the fact that he is extremely handsome as well as extremely nice to lame sophomores(me), but apart from that he's just average.

But I think that is what's different from his advice. 

He isn't a grandparent whose had a lifetime of experiences to give that advice or an 80s movie which was written by a bunch of middle aged people who has had those same experiences.  

'A' is just young.

This is I think why his advice gave me more hope. He didn't need to wait a lifetime to no longer fear what comes next.  Leaving high-school was enough. 

Leaving high-school isn't the end of hopes and dreams for the future, it's the beginning of working for those hopes and dreams.

So as of 11:00 am this morning I have decided that I am excited for Senior year!

As of Tuesday, August 12, 2014 at 7:22am I start working TOWARD what I want, NOT cowarding away.

And hopefully everything will work out. And maybe a year from now I will have discovered all of 'A's' advice and experiences for myself and encourage someone else to not fear the future but embrace it.

So with that I encourage you to take the advice given in this blog and maybe think about it every once in a while. Think about how letting go of drama could solve A LOT, think about how having fun in life is ah-mazing, think about your ambition,think about letting love find you not the other way around, and most of all, think about how much you LOVE Bruno Mars!

Well, until next time, STAY RANDOM!!!

PS
Sorry if I've been a bit repetitive, but this is the stuff on my mind, but I do have some other material planned, so stay tuned for some new topics. 

And if you follow me on YouTube I won't be uploading today because the footage was terrible so I have to re film this week.

Thoughts On Relationships, and My Lack of One

Recently I was at work and I was chatting to a friend,who is a bit older that me, and we were on the very discussed topic of boys. I was explaining to her how I'd love to have a boyfriend this upcoming senior year, and how I am pretty rubbish when it comes to "flirting" and all other things that come with catching a special someone's eye.  After confessing this very typical teenage girl insecurity she replied with, " The reason you don't have one is because you want one." Now before I indulge on my intense confusion and frustration with this statement, let me give you a bit of background.

Hi. My name is Shaye, I am 18, and I have never had a boyfriend. I have never been on a date or had a date to a school dance. My first, and only kiss, took place when I was 17 and was a stage kiss for a production of Cinderella and my co-star who I had to kiss was 4 years younger than me. 

Now before you assume that I'm saying this out of pity for myself or embarrassment, think again.  Now although 12 year old Shaye always dreamed of having that wonderful High School Musical-like romance that included dance numbers, singing and Zac Efron, I honestly don't regret where I stand on the romance experience chart.(except the whole musical number,because that would've been AWESOME).

Now I know I at this point I probably sound like Olive Penderghast from Easy A, but quite frankly Burt Royal hit the nail on the head when he wrote that movie. I mean who doesn't love 80's movies, The Scarlet Letter and Lobster Todd; but I digress from my affection for the film.

Honestly, though I am not upset that I haven't had a boyfriend thus far in my life, it would be nice to have one now. 

I am a hopeless romantic, I love LOVE and seeing couples makes me so happy. But, occasionally, I do get pretty bummed about it. My younger brother has been dating one of my best friends for more than a year, 
my uncle is about to get married, and my parents got married at 17 and have been together for over 25 years. Yet, here I am 3 years older than my parents were when they first met.

So naturally I have to wonder why I haven't met someone yet. I mean I'm not exactly looking for THE ONE just yet, but it would be nice to meet someone who fancies me as much as I fancy them.

Now back to the opening paragraph of this post. 

See after coming home and being confused and frustrated by what my friend said, I think I kinda sorted it out.  I don't think she was trying to tell me to stop wanting a relationship, I mean most teenagers do, but I think she was trying to say not to worry about it. With multiple romantic comedies to back me up on this, I think romance is unpredictable. 

Love, whether it's puppy love, first love, love at first sight, or old love; all love is magical. Cliche, yes, but it's the truth. As hard as we try to calculate love and match people up through a computer, nothing is more mysterious and unpredictable than love. 

So I think what my friend was trying to tell me is that I can't anticipate a relationship. When the right guy comes along to sweep me off my feet or just simply asks me on a date, the time will be right. Like anything in life, you can't rush it. Because the beauty in life is its numerous amounts of beautiful surprises.

Therefore I will wait patiently. I will still admire handsome boys and chat with those who are nice to chat with, but I won't worry about what that little chat could turn into. 

Quite frankly, I do love surprises. 

With that I encourage you to love LOVE even if you haven't quite found it yet,but more importantly, to remember that love doesn't always come in the form of a relationship. So spread all love as much as possible, and maybe you'll get a little back.


Well until next time, STAY RANDOM!

My Premature Mid-Life Crisis

I AM OFFICIALLY 18!!!!!!

Now, this is the point in most teenagers' lives where they would pack their bags, say goodbye to their hometowns, and take the world by storm.

Me on the other hand, well I didn't have quite the same reaction.

Instead I'm kinda going through a premature mid-life crisis, if you will.

See I have currently lived my life in a very dream like state. Always saying things along the lines of: "someday i'm going to..." or  "when I'm older..." or  "I have a few more years until..."   Now although I will ALWAYS be a dreamer(It's just who I am), now that I am 18 I've realized that I am now "older".  Therefore those things I've dreamed of doing as a 15 or 16 year old was already supposed to have happened by now, at least I thought they were.  This lead me to my "premature mid-life crisis".

After my birthday, July 10, I realized that I am now(to society) a grown-up. Meaning that I need to start really thinking and working for what I want in life. Now normally I'm a pretty chill person who,honestly, never wants to grow up( in the creative sense),but now is the time to really pursue what I love.  Although this is exciting, it is also a bit frighting.

Like most teenagers I am notorious for procrastinating, and over the past few years there have been many things that I have aspired to do. Things such as upload more videos to my YouTube channel, start a blog(which I attempted 2years ago but gave up) and get really fit and hot! LOL!

Now in all honesty I have attempted these things in the past, but either gave up or just got lazy.  So I've decided, in honor of turning 18, I just have to do it. Let's face it, no matter what happens (good or bad) at least I can say I did it.  I don't want to look back 5 years from now and regret not doing something I wanted to do because I was nervous of others people's reactions or because I was lazy.

Therefore I am writing this blog in hopes to entertain, inspire, and most of all have fun! I have also started uploading to my YouTube channel and even downloaded a new fitness app on my phone. ;)

I'm going  to start blogging hopefully every Sunday and uploading new videos every week.  Hopefully if you've stumble across this post you'll check back in every week and hopefully find a bit of happiness in reading my little inner monologue.

Well until next time, Stay Random!!!

I also am trying to figure out how to put my links to my social media on my actual blog page, but I'm not very tech savey.  So until then....
