From the Girl Who Gives It Her All

It is perfectly fine to completely devote yourself to your passions

I know there are many people out there who can understand where I am coming from. No matter what it is that I am doing, I always put more than I possibly could into it. Whether it be friendships, relationships, school, work, or anything I do really, I always put all that I can into it. It puts yourself up for more pain, but that is not why I do it. Because in the end, it really is more rewarding.

I have always been taught that unless you put yourself completely into something, can you say that you even really tried? I am a very passionate person, and when I am involved with things that I absolutely adore, I can’t help but to go all out. You bet that I am the girl that will come and pick you up at 3 AM because you have no one to talk to, or the girl who will stay up as late as she can to finish homework, and still make time to read. You know why? Because I have never half done anything, and I am very proud of that.

Sometimes it can be very discouraging. Especially when it comes to another person. It can always be easy to assume someone is not completely into something as I am, only because I put my whole heart and soul into it. However, I always have to remind myself that everyone is different. But just know, if you are like I am, it is okay. You aren’t the only one.

It is okay to want to be with someone as much as you can, or work as many hour as you possibly can. It is a very unique personality trait that makes someone special. It is a wonderful trait to have, even if it means getting hurt a couple of times.

No matter how many times you get hurt, don’t let this change you. There are always going to be people who either don’t appreciate this about you, or they will try to take advantage of it. It is up to you to weed the good people out from the bad. Though if you are as trusting as I am, everyone can seem like a kind person. Just take this advice from me, don’t let anyone take your shine away. Being passionate is a good thing to be, because passion is such a wonderful thing to have. If you are passionate about something, it means you truly want whatever it is that you are after.

Always stay on the positive side, because that is all you can do. With all the negativity that can be in this world, it is easy to be influenced by it. So just tell yourself that you are always going to give it your all, even when it feels as if you have nothing left to give.

That is just the type of person I am, and I am perfectly okay with it. I love being able to be completely overwhelmed with something, while not losing sight of myself.

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.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
