Goooood afternoon! how are you doing?
Afternoon! I'm doing well.
hey!!!
How are you?
pretty good. I just got done with an 3 hour internship interview so I feel a bit hyped up
Oh goodness.
I am getting bored of these prompts do be honest hahaha
How was it? did it go well? Yeah, I"ve started making up my own. Here is one. What would you do if you could not use the internet or watch TV or a month?
I think the interview went well. I had 3 different groups of interview me and they were all super chill hahaha. They all worked there as a product manager and user experience designer and they interviewed all the candidates individually to see which one fit the best with them
Well that is really cool. I hope you get it.
thank you so much! if I coudln't use the TV or the internet for a month I would just go rock climbing or go camping what about you?
I did it on my mission almost. Actually, I love it. I love being able to focus on the present and be in the moment. I remember when I was on my mission and I could only contact people once, I just told myself that I can't do anything about things and I can't worry about things for a week so I should just work on living in the moment and where I was then.
mmm I like that. It is really important to live in the moment and not let other things get in the way. I feel like I stress to much about the things in the future that I miss the important things that is in the now and then it gets me more stressed because I miss it
Right. I really need to learn this again. I did well on my mission at telling myself this, but now all I do is live in the future and the past.
me too! you know what I think would help with that for me? daily planning/ weekly planning.
Right!
That helped me stay on track of my goals for the future and I could see hourly the layout of my day and It helped a ton
I've been working on gratitude and meditation.
i need to get better at gratitude also. I remember when i tried to implement that when Elder uchtdorf talked about how we need to be grateful in our circumstances instead of what we have or not have
How did it work for you when you worked in it? Did it help?
yeah actually. I felt like I was happier and I was not so complaining all the time. I also felt better about the things that I have and the thing around me
Right. I need to do it more! Let us commit today to do it more! :) Yeah, it is not fun to live in a pessimistic world.
yess lets do it thanks for the positive chat. Sometime on here its just like boring or small talk and its pretty meh what are you up to doay? today?
Right. I've had a lot of those too. Today, I went to class, work, and studying. This evening I'll go rock climbing. What about you?

what level do you climb right now and what are your goals?
I've been able to climb 5.11
heyyyy thats good!
Goal without knowing too much, I want to eventually be able to climb outside and the harder walls. Thanks!
i got in to climbing 2 years ago because I wanted to try more interesting things other than video games hahaha. So my friend took me climbing and I have been hooked ever since
For me, I've been watching a lot of Lord of the Rings and I'm bored of just sitting inside. Plus people kept telling me to exercise, so I thought rock climbing would be fun. It's great though! That is fun that your friend took you!
hey hope I run in to you again and talk more about climbing! I have so much to talk about
Thanks! Yes. I quite enjoyed our chat!
