5 Times Sherlock Characters Described My Life

youtube

For anyone who is a fan of the BBC show "Sherlock" knows that season 4 premiered last Sunday. Fans of "Sherlock" also know how relatable each character on the show really can be. This is five times "Sherlock" characters have described my life:

1. Having To Deal With (Stupid) People Everyday

I think everyone can agree with me and Sherlock that the brain cells in humanity has suddenly decreased or completely gone away. Most of the time people just don't think before they speak or do anything and it can become very annoying very quickly. Sherlock, having to solve very difficult cases, also has to deal with stupid people every time he needs to figure out a case.

2. Having The Confidence Of Moriarty

Even if I'm not a psychopath like he is, Moriarty has such a high-level of confidence that everyone should aspire to reach. I wouldn't suggest becoming a psychopath like he is, but takes some tips about his confidence.

3. Being The Middle Person In A Fight Between Friends

With the many arguments that my friends and I have gone through, most of the time I end up being the person in the middle and seem to be okay with everyone. John Watson, has such a quiet personality where he wants everything to be peaceful, especially in the earlier seasons. I related to him a lot when it comes being on the quieter side and trying to keep the peace.

4. Having No Idea What Is Going On Most Of The Time

I'm going to be quite honest, while I may sometimes look like I have my life together, I don't. Just like a lot of people in the world, I have no idea what is going on and what I am doing most of the time.

5. His Loyalty To Family

While Mycroft has to deal with a brother like Sherlock, he is constantly loyal to him and will help him as much as he can. Any fan knows how difficult Sherlock can be and I understand that with my family. I will be the first one to admit that my family is difficult and I am too, but at the end of the day, I'll always be there for them.

While the "Sherlock" clan may be different from everyone else and is a little odd compared to the rest of the society; their wit, charm, and brains make them such an interesting group to watch.

To The Girl Who Falls Too Fast, Never Be Ashamed Of How Hard You Love

Love hard, every day, and never be ashamed.

If it hurts now, it'll hurt again. Not because you're gullible or naive, only because you fall fast, hard, and you do it every time.

We fall each and every time with the complete and utter confidence that someone will be there to catch us. Now that person we SWORE we were never going to fall for has our hearts, and every time we see them our palms start sweating. The butterflies in our stomach start to soar and our hearts are entirely too close to bursting out of our chests.

Barn Pros

Growing up I have always wanted to own a horse. My grandparents own a well known equestrian facility in Georgia, so I have been riding since I was born. A bond between a person and their horse is a bond so strong that it cannot be broken. Everywhere I went I wanted to be around horses, even forcing my family to go on trail rides during vacations. Horses have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember has taught me great responsibility, as well as 14 things that all equestrians can relate to.

College is super hard. Between working, studying, and having a social life, it feels like a struggle to just keep afloat.

I understand. When you feel like your drowning and there's no way to stay afloat I understand that it feels like everyone else is doing just fine. I understand all the frustration, long nights in the library, and that feeling that you want to just throw in the towel. I understand that sometimes it's too hard to get out of bed because your brain is already filled with too much information to remember. I understand because I am also feeling pretty burnt out.

No Matter How Challenging School Gets, You Have To Put Your Health First — A Degree Won't Mean Anything If You're Dead

Some of the best advice I've ever received was from my social studies teacher in sophomore year of high school. He stated, "If you don't know it at midnight, you're not going to know it for the 8 a.m. exam, so get some sleep."

It's such a simple piece of advice, but it holds so much accuracy and it's something that the majority of college students need to hear and listen to. "All-nighters" are a commonality on college campuses in order to cram in studying for an exam that is typically the next day.
