Enjoy The Little Things

Always take the time to enjoy the little things in life.

Enjoy The Little Things

Everyone experiences stress and focuses so much on things that don't really matter. Instead of doing this, we should try to just enjoy the little things in life. We miss the little things when our lives are always moving so fast. It's important to try and give yourself a break sometimes and pay attention to things you enjoy in life. This is hard to do but I believe it is very valuable. Here are a few of the little things in life that I enjoy.

1. Making someone smile.

This I would say is one of the better feelings. Knowing that you just made someone happy enough to smile or said something that made their day better is something I appreciate.

2. Rainy Days at my cabin.

There is nothing better than sitting on my closed in porch at my cabin watching the raindrops race down the windows and into the lake.

3. Hugs.

For just that 30 seconds or minute that I'm being hugged, I get the feeling that nothing can go wrong in the world and that is one of the best feelings.

4. Long nights spent with my favorite people in the world.

I wouldn't trade a thing for the long and fun nights I spend with my family and friends, making some of the best memories.

5. Days in the sun

I absolutely love spending days outside with nothing to do but enjoy the day.

6. Being confident in yourself

When you finally find some confidence in yourself, it feels amazing.

7. Long phone calls

I love talking to someone for a long time and still having enough to say hours later.

8. Tea

Nothing better than a hot cup of tea after a long day.

9. Fireplaces

I absolutely love sitting by the fireplace with my family around Christmas.

10. Disney Movies

Disney movies never get old and will always be appreciated.

11. When my cat crawls in my lap

I love when my cat enjoys being with me and decides he actually wants to be pet before biting my hand.

12. Getting packages in the mail

Theres always something exciting about recieving a package in the mail even if you know exactly what it is.

13. Hand written cards

I love when people take the time to write a long message in a card for you. Makes you feel like you are special.

14. Fridays

Nothing better than waking up and realizing it's the last day of the school week.


15. Driving around with no place to go

Driving around with no destination is the best way to find things you didn't even know you were looking for. Having no plans is what is so great about summer, you can just enjoy the time you have with the people you love.


I could probably go on for days but these are just a few of the little things I enjoy.

It is that time of year again. Christmastime. It is one of my favorite seasons for a myriad of reasons. Here are just a few reasons why I love Christmas. This list is in no order of importance.

1. The Christmas decorations

I am that person who will decorate directly after Thanksgiving is over. This year, my roommates and I put the tree up in our apartment before we even left for Thanksgiving break. It is a great stress reliever for me to just sit in my living room and work on the huge amount of work I have before the semester is over.

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?
