Fate Doesn't Happen By Accident...

When the stars align, fate hits you in the face and destiny is there to watch it all happen.

Fate Doesn't Happen By Accident...
Tyler Sanders

Have you ever had a memory that you look back on and all of a sudden...BAM! Destiny, fate, the lining of the stars and planets or whatever you call it hits you in the face? Almost like the kool-aid man coming through the wall next to you and saying "OH YEAH. THAT'S SOME GOOD DESTINY THERE!" Cause we all know that's how it works.

Whether it's how you met your other half, best friend, someone you call family, got a certain job or maybe just had some lucky moment. We've all been there. We've all realized that after some chain of events (usually crappy ones), something good happened. Something we cherish and will never forget.

Maybe it was a hard relationship(s) that set you straight to find someone who has fixed everything in life. They became your knight in shining armor and swept you off your feet. Showing you a whole new world and opening up your heart to something new. They brought you a feeling of bliss that you thought you understood before. Fate brought you to this person.

Or was it you playing your cards right to have a certain outfit on or maybe go somewhere at the perfect time. You ended up finding something that made your bad days turn around. It was almost as if you pulled the golden ticket that day. It was the stars aligning.

What if it was a chain of events from meeting one person to the next and so on. Maybe that one person has helped you change your life around for the better. That person opened up so many opportunities that would still remain a fantasy if you never said "hello" to them. That's your destiny.

We always here blah blah it's in your cards, it's your fate, it's your destiny. Well, it's true. Maybe we don't all believe in that hooblah that some fortune teller would tell you. Or believe in luck, superstition and card readings. But out of all of it, this is something you have felt.

Destiny, fate or whatever you decide to believe it to be, it will always find a way into your life and when you remanence on everything just be thankful the stars picked you that day.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.
