So, if you’ve been following me around for a while, you would know that I struggled with anxiety and depression for two years now.

And with this, I never really was able to see the light at the end of the tunnel, and I constantly wanted to give up and just end my life because I was tired of being let down over and over again. Even though I was able to realize that I had more to live for and I had more to life than just being depressed all the time, in which I was able to start to pull myself out of that rut I had been dragged into, I still had those days where I wanted to end my life. However, I held myself back from actually doing it and I’m so happy I didn’t go through with it.

Luckily for me, life is starting to turn around for me and I couldn’t be happier. I guess those two years of heartbreak and emptiness was all for something better?

But I can’t speak so quickly yet especially since anything can happen in the blink of an eye. I’m just so proud and happy to say that life is finally rewarding me for all the crappy things that I’ve been through before. I can’t wait to see what life has in store for me. I can’t wait to save lives one day and make the world a better place for people.

I just got my final acceptance from Michigan State the other day and because of this, it has opened up multiple doors for me and I’m so excited to see what lies ahead for me. I immediately see myself being in a better mood as the days go by and I’ve started to realize my self-worth and how I need to make sure that I only invite those in my life who will help better me and eradicate those who will make things worse. And with that being said, I’ve definitely seem to classify myself to be happier.

But of course, with good things there can be bumps in the road and for a split second, I had an issue with who I was going to room with once I got to Michigan State in the fall.

And then I was disappointed with the circumstances and started to jump to conclusions and started worrying about things. That is until literally, a roommate solution landed in my life.

If you’ve talked to me the past few days, you’d know that a girl had contacted me through Facebook Messenger and told me that she and her two other friends are looking for one last person to fill out their lease. She told me their names and one of the names I saw was the SAME EXACT NAME AS THE GIRL WHO WAS MY CHILDHOOD BEST FRIEND!!!

Like what are the odds that I would come into contact with her 10 years later? I mean, I knew she was still out there living her life, but who knew she was going to be my future roommate? No one can call this a coincidence.

This is fate, my friends. FATE.

And the other girl is friends with two of my friends from my SAT prep class that I met my junior year of high school; they all went to Troy High which is Avondale’s “rival."

Coincidences don’t even begin to explain this. The earth is a small world doesn’t even explain this either. I believe that this is pure fate and no one can tell me otherwise. Ask me about these other “small world encounters” I’ve had this year; I dare you.
