Lessons

Today I was thinking and my mind started to wonder off, I tend to do that in some of my classes. A lot of things have changed in my life since I've come to college. Odd how that happens. Want to know what I feel has changed? I thought you would. Okay, I'll tell you. 

-I have realized that the words, "best friend" have a whole new meaning. I don't know What it means, and I don't know if I have one. 

-I have come to see that I am closer to my family than I ever thought. I never knew how much I cared and enjoyed being with each and every one of them. 

-It's okay to be alone. In all the business of college and life, it's okay to take some time and ponder. It's okay to not want to be with people, and have some time for yourself. 

-Some people never leave High School. 

-If you can't work out the system, then do the homework/reading/studying whatever it may be. 

-I don't like heart break. I mean who does? No one. Sometimes it wares on you and you can't get away from those thoughts and feelings inside. Sometimes it's hard to get up and put a smile on, to try with all that you have left to find something to smile about during the day. One day at a time.

-Leave earlier than you think for classes, it may be icy and if it is you better hope to high heaven that you don't slip and break your tush. 

-Relax on the weekends. If you don't, you won't feel ready for the next week of school. Anyways, why not have a fun time, goof off, plan trips?

-If you need to study, don't go to the library with your friends. Tons of things will get done, however, none will have anything to do with the class you're supposed to be studying for. 

-I can tell that going to church on Sunday's makes me feel better. Sunday's are hard for me, in the sense that it's my day with my family. They aren't here, so going to church makes up for that lack of family near. 

-Don't cry in your room unless you know you're roommate has class or other plans for a while. Find your own spot somewhere close, but secluded.  

-Make sure to say your prayers, include yourself in activities, eat three meals a day, brush your teeth and get at least 4.5 hours of sleep a night. 

These are a few things I have learned. I could keep going, but I'll keep from boring you.
Have a nice day everyone!
