It's hard to believe that life can be as busy as it is.... Looking back on it, I would have never thought that I could have made it in far in life as I have in this short of time. I'm 20 years old and have found out more about myself in these past two years than I did in the first 18 years of my life. Living on my own and having to act like an adult has changed who I am.
Some things that I've learned in college:
1)Things are easier when you don't look at a week's schedule, look at what you need to accomplish that day and you won't feel so overwhelmed.
2)Your siblings really can be your best friends, distance makes you realize how much they mean to you.
3) Find a few good friends and hold onto them for life; it's better to have a few good friends you can confide in rather than having many acquaintances that you cannot trust.
4)Guys are great friends, they can help you with advice about other guys.
5)It's okay to not always be happy, struggling with your emotions helps you figure out who you are and where you stand.
6)It's okay to have fun, just don't let it get in the way of the more important things.
7)Sometimes all you need is a playlist of sappy love songs and a mug of hot cocoa to mend a bleeding heart.
8)It's okay to call friends at 4 a.m. crying your eyes out, they won't be mad that you woke them up, they'll just ask what's wrong.
9) Find something simple and fun as a destressor, coloring is nice :)
10)Keep yourself busy, you'll stay more on top of your work that way.
God will never say no to any request you make, His typical three answers are yes, not right now, or I have something better in mind for you. Live by God's MASH board, don't try to make your own.
Starting orientation for my job this week has been a life saver, but at the same time I'm busier than ever...sometime's life is just easier that way.
