"You look BEAUTIFUL today!"

"I LOVE your shirt, where is it from?"

"You have such a PRETTY smile!"

Those are just some sayings that are proven to enhance your happiness. A compliment can change someone's mood completely! Something as simple as a smile can brighten someone's entire day. What better way to make someone smile than a compliment? They are free, kind, and can also make you feel better!

So I CHALLENGE YOU: this week give at least 5 compliments a day! Notice how warm it makes you feel inside and how nice it feels to see someone else smile because of something you said. Need an even bigger challenge? Give those compliments to random people whom you rarely or have never talked to!

I decided to give my compliments to people I have never and probably will never meet. The people behind the success, behind the screens, the people that don't even realize they bring millions of smiles to peoples faces every day! "Who?" you may ask. The hard workers that spend days working on providing you with your favorite ice cream, snack, hair product, clothing, and beyond!

Personally, the only time I ever reach out to a company is if my shipping is late or they got my order wrong... can you imagine reading complaint after complaint all day?! I promise that is NOT a mood enhancer. But having an email pop up that says THANK YOU! Now that, that will make someone's day!

MY PROJECT:

I emailed over 45 companies, here are some of my favorites:) Not only were they appreciative of some kind words but some even sent free products or handwritten thank you letters.

I received a Thank You email from all the companies expressing their gratitude for my gratitude! Although I couldn't see the smile on their faces, I could feel the happiness from their kind responses:)

Don't wait for happiness, go out and get it! Make someone's day with the littlest act of kindness!!! You can, and you will:)

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.
