Complaining has become such a huge part of the college lifestyle. Whether it is through memes or various things like how much you didn't get to sleep this week. Overall, we just complain to much. So next time you are about to say one of the complaints listed below, think about how you can turn it into a positive. Positivity is a mentally healthy habit that we should all work on a little more. There is so much to be grateful for and so many things that go under appreciated in our day to day lives. Over a billion people in the world don't have enough money to sustain the basic necessities of life. We get so blinded by first world problems that we neglect these greater world problems.
