Dreams, Good Things, and Happiness
Preservation Of Moments

In life, we always want to be in a place other than the one we're in. What we don't realize is that we need to be in this place in order to get to the next place. Sometimes, it can seem like a repetitive chain of events, but as long as you are doing what you truly want to do, it doesn't matter where you do it.

You're making an effort to do something you truly want to do, and that is never easy. There's so much effort that one has to put into something that they truly want to do. When you are passionate, anywhere can be your workspace.

Your work doesn't go unnoticed. Your efforts don't go unnoticed. You took a complete chance and started from an idea and it became a reality. It's a crazy process to witness because when you start hitting milestones, you realize how much you're accomplishing and it's an amazing feeling.

Everything you go through along the way is necessary to make you stronger as you go.

We get conflicted because of expectations. We think that everything is just going to blow up overnight, but it takes time. We tend to get ahead of ourselves because we have such high hopes for what we want to do and we want to see things go well.

You have to remember that you can't give up. You have to keep moving forward. There are people out there who look forward to everything you do, and whenever you want to give up, think of those people. They will always be there to support you, no matter what you do.

There will be so many moments in between where you wonder if it's worth it and then you have moments when you realize why you made this thought a reality and you take a second to be proud of yourself.

It's all too often that we accomplish so much and we don't take a second to stand back and realize how much we accomplish.
The same way that you need to work, you need to rest. Balance is the key to happiness.

So, know this. You're in a certain place right now, but it doesn't mean that it will always be this way.

It's what's right for right now, and you have to take advantage of this time by doing what you want to do.

Don't fight what's helping you to stay motivated. Thanks to this, you're doing what you once dreamt of. Now, you get to watch this former dream as a current reality.

If you want to do something. Do it. Don't say you'll make time, because it's a guaranteed way to fail. The time to start is now.
In life, you have the chance to be whatever you want to be. Don't put it all on hold. Do what you truly want to do.

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.
