To New Beginnings: 2019

I'm not writing this because the new year is here and 2019 will be different, cause doesn't everyone say, "New Year, New Me?"

To New Beginnings: 2019

To New Beginnings because life isn't going to always be the same and because you're grown up. To new beginnings because why not? I'm turning 21 soon, and it'll be a new life. I'll truly be an adult and I'm talking about because I can drink. I'm saying to new beginnings because I will be able to get hotels now without the consent of an adult.

To new beginnings because it's time to live for myself. Here's what I've done for a New Beginning, and I mean why don't you try it too?

1. Actually making my bed every day

Now, I don't how long this going to last but, I've started making my bed every morning. There is nothing nicer than coming home to a clean bed. It leaves you satisfied.

2. Redecorating

Redecorating can make something old feel so new. I tend to always rearrange things every few months because I believe it's fun to come home to something new all the time. Now I don't go buy new things, all I do is take some things away, or I go make stuff myself. I've moved my bed possible five times in the eight months that I've lived in my apartment.

3. Drinking water

It's something small, but it does make a difference. You don't realize how unhealthy the stuff you drink or eat is until you start being healthy and you noticed how you change a month in. The effects won't be automatic, but in a month you will realize that your skin may be less dry, or you don't look so gloomy and you have loads of energy.

4. Get A fluffy buddy

There is nothing better than a best friend who is always by your side. I'm talking about a pet animal. They just make you happy. And they don't talk back! They just sit there and make you happy.

* * *

There is nothing more amazing than having the ability to end something and start something new. It is empowering and it allows you to do what you want to do. It's a new perspective on life. You take charge, you change things, and you do what you need or what to make your life the way it needs to be.

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.

Dealing with the inevitable realities of college life.

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.
