Enjoy the good times but when the rough times come enjoy those too for the rough times teach you more than the good times ever will.

Sometimes in life you’ve just gotta lose. Yes I said it lose, fail, fall short, but just don't stay there.

In life its necessary to fail because in that failure you find your strength and are made aware of your weaknesses. Finding out your weaknesses is the best thing you could ever do. Of course no one ever wants to talk about failure but the truth is you’re the greatest in your failure. We must have this conversation because failure is inevitable. Everyone at some point fails at something but if you don’t know how to learn from that failure, you will allow that one mistake to overtake you and keep you stuck. In order to overcome failure you must realize the lesson in it, that lesson will ultimately help you during your success. Sometimes life presents you with those moments where things seem as I they are falling apart but don’t give in to the pressure, just embrace the moment and remember you are still here. Use that energy to allow yourself the strength to allow thing to fall back together because they always come back together. As long as your heart is beating there is still time for greater to occur in your life. Enjoy the good times but when the rough times come enjoy those too for the rough times teach you more than the good times ever will. One day you'll look back over your life and see that all of those moments were worth it after all. I was taught that you dont deserve to celebrate the reward if you weren't willing to celebrate and enjoy the process. Remember process lasts longer than anything else. You can make it but dont be afraid of failing . Let the failure propel you to greater heights with deeper motivation and passion. You can make it!

birthday party

My birthday has never been my favorite holiday. I've found that I'm more excited to celebrate my friends' and family members' birthdays more than my own. I don't like being the center of attention, so I usually celebrate over dinner with a small group of family and friends. This way, I can enjoy myself naturally without feeling like I have to entertain everyone and make sure they are satisfied. In the past when I've had large parties, I was so nervous that people weren't perfectly content that I didn't enjoy myself at my own celebration.

College Informations

Most of us have already started the spring semester, and for those of you who haven't started yet, you suck.

It seems like coming back from winter break wouldn't really be a break all things considered, since we all come back to school and pick up right where we left off. We know exactly what to expect, yet we're unprepared every single time.

I'm serious

There are tons of unisex names that are popular: Taylor, Alex, Bailey, etc. There are also numerous names that are used for both sexes, but they’re not seen as “unisex” yet. People are slowly becoming accustomed to the dual use of these names, but for the most part, in their minds they associate certain names with certain sexes. And that leaves those of us with these names in many awkward situations.
