5 Struggles of a Semi-Organized Person As Told By Gene Belcher

We're proud, we're messy, but we're organized too!

5 Struggles of a Semi-Organized Person As Told By Gene Belcher
Bob's Burgers Wiki

Some of us are crazy organized and have our ducks in a row, whereas some are the opposite. Right now we're talking about the people that fall right in the middle, and we're a proud people but certainly have tendencies to fall on one side or another from time to time. Bob's Burgers seems completely unrelated, but that's sort of the point which I'll get to.

1. Sometimes we do things that don't always make sense.

Whether it's multitasking to start out the morning, like attempting to rake a brush through our hair with a toothbrush while trying to brush our teeth with the hair brush, we get it figured out eventually. Give us a second to realize that what we're doing isn't making sense. Although brushing our hair with a toothbrush and teeth with the hair brush is unlikely, I'm sure it's not the first time this type of thing has happened. Bear with us, and we'll get back into taking it one step at a time...eventually.

2. Boy, do we get distracted.

As much as I would love a hot fudge carwash, like hot fudge, food is a huge distraction. Hanger, phone, Netflix, baby animal videos, social media, shiny things, whatever it may be; any one of these things can and normally do keep me from responsibility. Being semi-organized doesn't always mean organizing belongings or spaces, but also maintaining mind organization... occasionally.

3. Speaking of spatial relations, some parts of our lives can remain somewhat immaculate whereas others are a travesty.

If you're anything like me, I try to keep my car as clutter free as possible but my room can look like my closet threw up everywhere. My car isn't immaculate, I mean it could use the healing touch of the vacuum, but sometimes it can be hard to keep some places clean and we make our messes. We're busy, we're kinda messy, but we're proud.

4. Trying to organize our lives can be a struggle and a half.

We have a lot to figure out with school, work, bills, schedules and what not. Sometimes it gets hard for us to decide what we want to do with our lives so we change our minds on how we want to do things, but what we want to do with our lives doesn't always mean career path. One week we may want to try starting meal prepping or working out more, but it'll be a tricky start in some cases. Other times we're mixing up plans, like showing up to a friend's house at 2pm but were actually suppose to help your brother pack for college. Don't worry, we'll figure it out... We got this. Kind of.

5. When we finally do get it figured out, it's bliss and we enjoy it while it lasts.

After a good stress clean, not mixing up plans during a busy week, staying focused on a task, or anything like it; it's a great time for us to relax. During this time, we're also trying with every fiber of our being not to mess it up again which has 50/50 odds most of the time. Either way, we're happy when we're clean and we can be happy when we're messy. It's just a matter of what we're feeling.

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

Happy Birthday Cake

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?

So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.
