You Deserve Better, Never Forget That!
Tumblr

First and foremost, no, this article will not be a heart-wrenching lecture on how not to settle in a relationship. In fact, it is an article that is a gentle reminder that you are so important and worthy of everything good and just in this world. Therefore, never be anyone's second choice. Never be anyone's last resort. You deserve better even if you do not know what better is at this point.

Now, talking only to that person who settles in relationships; do not worry you're not alone! I have also been guilty of settling in many times in my life. Here are some of the things that I have learned from my experiences.

Firstly, if you live from the abundant place in which you are loved you won't have to find yourself begging others for their scraps of love! Powerful, right? We don't have to beg others for love because our heavenly Father gives it freely.

Our minds and souls are inspiring and loving. Our personalities are nothing but extraordinary. So why do we settle? Why do we allow people to put this hold on our hearts that makes ache inside?

It is because deep down we know that these people aren't meant for us, but it is easier to hold on than to deal with the pain of walking away. We have to learn how to step back, realize we are not loved from the person in which we seek love, and finally just walk away!

It is a beautiful experience when we can come to terms with the fact that we are already so loved; so loved that He chose to lay down His life for our sins. The world has done a great job of trying to brainwash us into settling for things we do not deserve mainly by social media. The likes, comments, and messages lead us to believe that we have to settle in life. Nonetheless, don't flirt with the world. Your soul is at stake!!

Today, let's make a promise to stop being afraid of living our lives without certain people. Let's stop settling for things we know we don't desire because at the end of the day, the one true person who we really need promises from will never leave!

We deserve so much better and I hope oyu will always remember that!

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.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.

Top 10 Reasons My School Rocks!

Why I Chose a Small School Over a Big University.

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.
