How Bad Do You Want It?

Dear Self,

How bad do you want itself? How bad you really want to be successful in your own right, self? Is your success worth losing sleep over? Are you really in this? Self, wake up! Please do not get caught up in the fairytale lifestyle, Walt Disney did not write your destiny if you do not take action things will not be happily ever after for you! You have to get up and go get what you want, nothing is going to be given too easily.

You basically have to just go and grab what you want right now in life and never let go. Nobody is going to go out and get your dreams for you but you. As much as your parents, sibling, friends and family love you and want you to be successful, you have to go get it for yourself! Give yourself the green light in life, don't sit there and wait for somebody to give it to you!

"When you get to the point where all you want to do is be successful as bad as you want to breathe then you'll be successful"

Is your heart really in your success? You can do anything you set your mind to, you just have to want it! Find that drive find that hunger and go get what is yours. Even when you feel like you've done enough do a little more. Try even harder go above what you're capable self, push yourself to every limit you have and once you reach that limit push even harder! You are going to have to be willing to lose somethings in order to gain all that you want. And that's perfectly fine let old unneeded baggage go, create a clean slate for yourself and GO! Go get what you want, get your hearts desires whose really stopping you self?

Self if all else fails remember the bible says "Eyes have not seen nor ear have heard the things God has prepared for those who love him." Keep God first and let him lead and guide you, trust and love him! Well, how do you trust him? How do you let him lead and guide you to your destiny? Right? I know that's what you're thinking but you start with prayer. Thank God for all the blessings he's already given you, thank him for all of the hurt and the pain that he's allowed you to go through. Always thank God for loving you unconditionally and keeping you! Ask him to order your steps into his will for you, ask that you be decreased and he be increased in you all times. Most importantly just seek him!

Love,

...Self

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

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.
