2019 Is The Year To Say "Thank U, Next" To Your Negative Attitude

I have never considered myself to be the biggest optimist in the world. In fact, just like everyone else, I have bad days where all I want to do is be angry about everything. And yes, if waiting in the line at Chipotle takes more than 20 minutes, you can bet you'll hear me complaining about it.

But I am sick and tired of having pessimistic people in my life.

You all know exactly the type of people I'm talking about. The people who wake up on the wrong side of the bed every day. The people who find a way to take something good and make it sound negative. The people who, for no reason, hate on things that other people love just because they can.

I don't really understand the point of being pessimistic. Do you think you're cool for hating things? Or are you just that insecure with who you are as a person that you feel the need to make the people around you miserable?

Whatever it is, 2019 is the year to change your attitude.

It's time to realize that life, although sometimes horrible and unfair, is beautiful and special. There is no reason to hate on something just because it isn't your favorite thing. There's no reason to be rude to people just because you share different opinions. Did you ever stop to think how much happier you might be as a person if you spread happiness and love instead of negativity and hate?

Our lives are not long enough to spend every waking moment hating things. Life is for a limited time only: take full advantage of it.

Quite frankly, unless the negative ninnies in my life turn things around in the new year, I'm completely prepared to say "thank u, next" and leave them behind.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
