I feel for you. I get it. I know sometimes it's hard to live your life when all you can think about is disappearing. It's hard when no one understands or cares to understand your thoughts, your pain. But you just smile and nod like everything is okay like you are okay. But you're not. You feel like the world is caving in on you, giving you nowhere to run. You constantly look for an outlet, but are left with walls built up so high and so strong, stopping you. And you cry in silence hoping someone will hear. But they never do. So instead you convince yourself that you, in fact, are not enough to be around, to be talked to, or to be cared about. You feel left out. You feel in the way. You never say how you're feeling in case it's stored as ammunition against you.

But you are, in fact, enough. You feel this way now due to the situation that is trying to drown you. Please, don't give up. You are more than enough for the right person, or for the right people. There are people out there waiting to accept your flaws and make you feel special. Wanted. Never degrade yourself. You are enough, for you. You are powerful and you are going to move on to bigger and better things. This place in your life is temporary. It will pass. You can make it on your own. FInd the strength within yourself to push forward and open your eyes to see the light.

It is that time of year again. Christmastime. It is one of my favorite seasons for a myriad of reasons. Here are just a few reasons why I love Christmas. This list is in no order of importance.

1. The Christmas decorations

I am that person who will decorate directly after Thanksgiving is over. This year, my roommates and I put the tree up in our apartment before we even left for Thanksgiving break. It is a great stress reliever for me to just sit in my living room and work on the huge amount of work I have before the semester is over.

Writing a paper is never fun and is rarely rewarding. The writer's block, the page requirement, be specific, but don’t summarize, make sure you fixed any grammatical errors, did you even use spellcheck? and analyze, analyze, analyze.

Papers can be a major pain. They take up so much time and effort that by the end of the process you hate yourself and you hate the professor for making life so difficult. Questions of your existence start roaming in your mind. Am I even cut out for college if I can’t write a single paper? Am I even capable of taking care of myself if I lack the energy to open my laptop and start typing?
