Don't Stop Believing in these 7 things

It's so easy to get into a pattern of bad thoughts, especially when everything around you seems overwhelming. It's even easier to sometimes forget all of the good that you have around you in those times because you're blinded by everything you have going on in your life, and mostly, by all of the negative things in your life. It's very easy to forget all of the love and good that's around you because those negative things can seriously take a toll on your every day life. Well, here are just a few things to never stop believing in, even when those bad times have you in a rut.

Don't Stop Believing In Your Friends

These are the people who you laugh the hardest with. They're the people who are your chosen family. They're the people who are there for you and with you in the good times and in the terrible times. They're the ones who can be your lifeline when you don't feel like a single person in the world gets you. Don't stop believing in your friendships when times get hard because they are so incredible important.

Don't Stop Believing In Yourself

You have busted your butt for so incredibly long to get to where you are. But the funny thing is, we tend to always look at how far we have left to go rather than ever embrace and celebrate how far we've come. Don't ever stop believing in yourself and the strength you have. It's incredibly important that you believe in you because at the end of the day, you will always be your biggest cheerleader, and that will always get you to the next level.

Don't Stop Believing In Your Family

You can't choose your family, that's the way life goes, BUT you should always believe in the people you were given in this life. They've been there from day 1 and they'll always be there for you. Don't forget to lean on them when you get a little lost because they're the ones that will always lift you up and will carry your burdens as their own.

Don't Stop Believing In Love

Even if you're single and that's something that you see as a negative thing - IT'S NOT! Usually you don't find your person until the craziest time when you're least expecting it. Don't ever stop believing in finding love or the power that love has. It literally is the most freeing and lifting feeling in the entire world. It's not worth ever giving up on, so when times get hard, don't forget to believe in love.

Don't Stop Believing In Laughter

They say laughter is the best medicine and it's actually a fact. When you can smile and laugh, you actually make yourself feel better. Find whatever it is that makes you happy, puts a smile on your face, or gets you to have one of those deep belly laughs, and keep it in your back pocket for a rainy day. It's so important to always find some type of joy in your life and there's nothing better than a hurt belly from laughing.

Don't Stop Believing There's A Larger Plan

Don't ever stop believing that there's a larger plan our there for you. Every tough time that you endure usually means that something amazing is just around the corner. Keep pushing through, keep being the amazing person that you are and always make sure to remember that everything happens for a reason. You might not see the reason while it's happening, and you might never see the reason, but there always is one. Have faith and never stop believing that your life is going to take you exactly where you need to be, because you were strong enough to endure it.

Don't Stop Believing In Puppies

When all else fails, there's always puppies. We don't deserve them, and they'll make you happy, so NEVER stop believing in the power of pups.

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.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.
