Don't Wait For The Perfect Time

Make now the perfect time.

Every day we are given so many new opportunities. Life is always changing and it seems like life keeps moving faster and faster.

There are so many things that we want to do and experience. There are so many obstacles in life and many things that we want to accomplish.

The clock never stops so why wait to do what you want?

If you just sit around and always think about what you want to do it will never get done. Just get up and do it. We don’t want to live a life full of regret. We want to live a life full of adventure.

Do things that you want to do and that make YOU happy. Don’t wait for things to happen, make them happen. Don’t hold yourself back because you are scared of what others might think or you are scared of the outcome, just do it.

Life is forever changing and time isn’t going to stop for you to make up your mind about something. Go do the things you never imagined you would. Life can be whatever you want it to be and it is going to be whatever you make it.

Why wait? Go on that crazy adventure. Go buy that dress that you’re not sure if you can pull off. Eat that extra scoop of ice cream or another cookie because you want to. Say the things you’ve always wanted to say. Just do what you’ve always wanted to do.

There are times where we want people to tell us what to do but sometimes we just have to do what we actually want to do. Go that extra mile for what you want.

Don’t let others stop you from doing you. You only get one life, so don’t waste it. Don’t regret the things you didn’t do, just go do it.

Don’t wait for the “perfect” time because that will never happen. Make it the perfect time. It will be the perfect time when you do what you want.

Why wait?

Just go accomplish what you want to do.

Go do what makes you happy.

The Great Christmas Movie Debate

"A Christmas Story" is the star on top of the tree.

The Great Christmas Movie Debate
Mental Floss

One staple of the Christmas season is sitting around the television watching a Christmas movie with family and friends. But of the seemingly hundreds of movies, which one is the star on the tree? Some share stories of Santa to children ("Santa Claus Is Coming to Town"), others want to spread the Christmas joy to adults ("It's a Wonderful Life"), and a select few are made to get laughs ("Elf"). All good movies, but merely ornaments on the Christmas tree of the best movies. What tops the tree is a movie that bridges the gap between these three movies, and makes it a great watch for anyone who chooses to watch it. Enter the timeless Christmas classic, "A Christmas Story." Created in 1983, this movie holds the tradition of capturing both young and old eyes for 24 straight hours on its Christmas Day marathon. It gets the most coverage out of all holiday movies, but the sheer amount of times it's on television does not make it the greatest. Why is it,
then? A Christmas Story does not try to tell the tale of a Christmas miracle or use Christmas magic to move the story. What it does do though is tell the real story of Christmas. It is relatable and brings out the unmatched excitement of children on Christmas in everyone who watches. Every one becomes a child again when they watch "A Christmas Story."

After talking to a few of my friends at college, I realized that a lot of them don't really have "Christmas traditions" in their family, and I want to help change that. Here's a list of Christmas traditions that my family does, and anyone can incorporate into their family as well!

It’s here; that time of year when college students turn into preschoolers again. We cry for our mothers, eat everything in sight, and whine when we don’t get our way. It’s finals, the dreaded time of the semester when we all realize we should have been paying attention in class instead of literally doing anything else but that. Everyone has to take them, and yes, unfortunately, they are inevitable. But just because they are here and inevitable does not mean they’re peaches and cream and full of rainbows. Surviving them is a must, and the following five phases are a reality for all majors from business to art, nursing to history.
