Everyone knows college can be well….a pain in the *ss! Classes, work, homework, quizzes, exams, finding a place to live, my to do list feels endless. However, there is always a bright side; sometimes it gets hard to remember that, or to find the good things in those dark days. Just start right here, with reading this, and then put it in the front of your mind to not take your focus off of the positive. Allow yourself to count your blessings and live it up the way you were meant to! Your only other option is to wallow in sadness and stress and no one wants that
1. Having a beautiful day outside when you least expect it
These are the days where Missouri’s crazy weather swings (it’s like mood swings but with... yeah, you get it.)
2. The words “cancelled” and “free”
Check any college kid's closet and you’ll find a hundred T-shirts that were being given away for something or another.
3. Knowing I’m headed home to my bed!
Hardest goodbye and happiest hello is so accurate.
4. Seeing my friends excited about anything!
As we all go through classes and down different paths it’s such a great feeling to come together and see them flourish in their lives! Hearing about a great grade on a project I know they worked so hard on makes me so proud! GO YOU! Get that job, own that exam!! I’m here cheering you on!
5. Seeing any type of puppy on campus!
Whether they are actually there for my benefit or just happen to cross my path, I’m excitedly hitting my friends shrieking, “Look there’s a puppy over there!” Even if said puppy is all the way across the quad, don’t worry I’m on my way!!
