Bless This Mess

We could talk about the beauty and happiness of life , but today we are gonna talk about this messy process we call living. Now don't get me wrong life is an amazing gift given to us by God, and is a beautiful journey. However, sometimes life is busy and it gets messy.

Between school,work,church,family,friends,and don't forget sleep when do we have time for ourselves? The answer is we don't! Breathe easy though because you're not the only one with a to do list a mile long. Everyone's life comes with a different mess, and a different to do list. You may think there is no way to survive your week without a miracle from God, but here are a few tips to limit stress in your life!

1.If you like to break a sweat while your body hurts spend some time at the gym! Working out is a proven way to reduce some stress.However, for some this may just add a little more.

2.Light some candles! A relaxing scent filling your home as you get your work done will surely calm you down.

3.Watch a funny movie! Sit down fold some clothes and enjoy a good laugh or 70.

4.Take a warm bath! This may limit your time to get the rest of your list done, but after a relaxing dip in the tub you won't care.

5.Eat something sweet! Who wouldn't feel great after a slice of cake or a brownie with ice cream?

Don't let the stress and mess ruin your life! Most of these can be done as you're completing your daily to do list. Everything will get done the more you worry the less time you have to take care of your duties! Just say a prayer every morning, and one when the messy fairy shows up. God is always listening, and He's a great helping hand for any task!Now, it has been a messy day I'm going to take a bath while eating a HUGE brownie!

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
