College. It's the time where you become an adult and move away from home. Many challenges must be faced every day. Do I skip class to study for another test? Do I eat another slice of pizza? Those are the hardest questions many college students face. Sometimes I find myself asking those same questions. Sometimes I question whether or not I can make it through one more semester or even a full school year, but despite that, I try my hardest to be the best person I can be. We all make mistakes or get hurt, It's a part of life that is unavoidable, but it's the time of life where those things are more likely to happen. I've learned quite a lot myself and it's those things that make me who I am today.

Boys will come and go.

I have met guys who end up not wanting a relationship but more so a short term thing. I am not a short term option. I do know that the guy I am supposed to be with is within the near future. I must be patient and wait for him to find me because chasing after boys is not the way handle anything.

It's okay to fail a class in college.

No one is perfect. I am not perfect. No one expects us to be Einstein. This is how I decided I need to get learning disorder testing completed. It's not fun, but in the long run, it could help you to be more successful in your college career. Failing one class or even two or three is not the end of the world. I will live and so will you.

The party scene is not for me.

It's okay not to go out on a Friday night. Staying in and eating a whole pizza by yourself is perfectly okay. I'd rather watch my favorite TV show than going out and drinking and waking up with someone you don't remember being with. It is better to remember the fun you had in college rather than the memories that were thrown away.

Ramen noodles are not a food group.

I've been guilty of this. When you think you're running out of money for groceries so you buy the cheapest item for dinner. Not healthy. Have you ever checked how much sodium is in one small pack? Don't even check. Too much. Gross. There are way better things you can buy that are better for your health.

Life brings us challenges that no one will ever expect. Being a young adult is hard. No one ever said it's easy. It's all about how you handle the life you want to live and just maybe I'll remember college as a time of life lessons and great memories. It is okay to go against the norm and do your own thing.
