20 Reasons I'm Thankful For My "Person"

Life is a journey that seems like a roller coaster a majority of the time. I go from being extremely excited about something in life to an emotional wreck the next. I go through random phases of "leave me alone" or "please don't leave me," and you came into my life at just the right time in order for me to have these phases. Had it not been for you and everything we've been through in life already, I don't know where I would be.

You came into my life and we went through the awkward "I don't really know how to trust you" phase to always being together and getting on each other's ever living nerves from being together a little too much. You've been a friend, a sister, but now you're just simply "my person" and I could not thank you enough for coming into my life when you did.

Thank you...

1. For always being honest with me, even when it hurts.

2. For our random spontaneous adventures.

3. For always knowing how to make me laugh especially when I'm beyond the point of pissed.

4. For being petty with me when someone pisses me off.

5. For encouraging me to be myself and be who I want to be every single day.

6. For teaching me that it's okay to be different and weird.

7. For always blaring the best jams in the car with me.

8. For every "Friends" episode we have binge watched over and over again.

9. For being apart of my family.

10. For always listening to me even though I've probably talked about this issue five times before.

11. For picking me up when I am down.

12. For reminding me where my worth is found.

13. For every time you've stayed in because I don't want to go out.

14. For taking care of me when I forget to take care of myself.

15. For always being down to hang out and have fun times.

16. For making my big and small accomplishments a big deal.

17. For allowing me to trust in you and confide in you daily.

18. For always being my alarm clock and reminder during the day.

19. For never staying mad at me for too long.

20. For sharing your life with me and being my person. I don't know what life would be without you.

5 Things To Do That Are Better Than Writing A Paper

Don't waste your time trying to write that paper when there are so many more interesting things you could be doing.

Writing a paper is never fun and is rarely rewarding. The writer's block, the page requirement, be specific, but don’t summarize, make sure you fixed any grammatical errors, did you even use spellcheck? and analyze, analyze, analyze.

Papers can be a major pain. They take up so much time and effort that by the end of the process you hate yourself and you hate the professor for making life so difficult. Questions of your existence start roaming in your mind. Am I even cut out for college if I can’t write a single paper? Am I even capable of taking care of myself if I lack the energy to open my laptop and start typing?

10 Reasons Why Sisters Are The Best

Who could be a better friend than your own sister?

sisters

I can barely remember back when I was the only child. Most would say it’s because it is extremely difficult to remember things as a toddler but I would say it's because I was bored until my sister came along. My mother always says how important the "sister bond" is and with every year that passes I realize how right she is. Instead of writing a novel about all of the wonderful things there are about having a sister I decided to list a few of them instead.

It is the time of our lives that we are beginning to enter the adult world and most of us, if not all of us, have no idea what we are doing. It's like starting a video game, but skipping the tutorial. We're all just running around aimlessly hoping we accidentally do something right that moves us along the right path. Now that graduation has just happened, or is right around the corner for some of us, it's time to start thinking about how we are going to take care of ourselves once we are on our own.

If you’re anything like me, you love a good cup of coffee. My coffee always comes from Starbucks; I refuse to drink it from anywhere else. Over the years, it’s become one of my biggest addictions. So, if you are aware that you’re a Starbucks addict as well, or maybe you need to check to see if you’re an addict, here are seven ways to tell.

It can be overwhelming at times and it’s important to take a step a back and calmly think things over. Maybe gain some perspective. The following aren’t foolproof tips and may not apply to you, but I was able to find success with them (hope you do too!)
