Standing Still

It is weird when you are feeling like the people around are all moving forward and you are standing still. I know that I am doing things to forward my schooling and my career, but I feel most of this feeling when it relates to my personal life. The people around me are building relationships. They are meeting their significant others and building friendships. I know that I have good friendships at this point in my life. I struggle more with this when thinking about significant others. I know that in life I want to be married and have a family. I have been single for about 4 years. In that time I have not had much of a relationship at all. I feel like all the people around me are finding people, falling in love, getting engaged, and getting married.

I know that God has plans for everyone and it is going to happen in the best timing. It can be hard to keep telling myself this when I feel like everyone is moving in that direction. I try to remember that God has planned for me the greatest man that I could ever imagine. I know that He is working to make both of us ready to be the person the other one needs. I try to focus on becoming the best person I can be and this will translate into being the best wife I can be.

New Product

So I really needed to start having the motivation to clean my room. I do not have cable in my bedroom at home and the movies I have have gotten a little boring. So I was trying to find a way to be able to watch Netflix on my TV. I did a little online research and figured out the best thing for me was going to be Google Chromecast or a Roku Stick. I was originally thinking that I would go with the Google Chromecast because it was cheaper. I also looked at the Roku products and decided that for the things I wanted to do the Roku Stick would be fine. I was out running a few errands and decided to look at Walmart. They had both products set up right next to each other, which for me was super nice because I could read and look at both. So I sat there for a while trying to decide and then I asked one of the workers if he knew which one was better and he said the Roku. I also looked up some information in the store and there is a remote with the Roku but the Chromecast just uses your phone somehow. So I decided to take the leap and get the Roku and hope for the best.

I got it home and opened and took everything in my room. I started to read the instructions because I was terrified of messing it up. Normally, I get my brother to help me set up stuff like this but he could not so I was on my own. Thankfully, the instructions were super easy to follow and it walked me right through the process. It was all set up.

I started by getting my Netflix set up on it which was super easy I just had to put in my log in information and I was ready to go. So that made me super happy because that is the main reason I bought this product.

Next, I found out I can log in to YouTube and watch videos on the Roku. This made me super excited! I really like YouTube videos and watching them on my TV is amazing.

Finally, I also figured out through Radio or Pandora you can listen to music. Which is really good because the speakers on my computer suck so it is nice to actually be able to hear it.

Now I am just hoping when I move into college the Wifi there will be good enough so I can use it at school too. But if I can I still believe it is well worth the money.

Here is a link to get it on amazon (otherwise just go pick it up at your local Walmart): http://www.amazon.com/Roku-3500R-Streaming-Stick-HDMI/dp/B00INNP5VU/ref=sr_1_1?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1436649793&sr=1-1&keywords=roku+stick
