For Those Who Need A Daily Reminder

I know how you feel. It's been a long day or a long week and things just haven't been going in your favor.

1. Stay positive.

Things will eventually begin to look up and go your way.

2. Believe in yourself.

Happiness is a mindset, and you can do anything you set your mind to.

3. Think about your blessings.

Life is too short to always focus on what you don't have, so start focusing on what you do have. Focus on what you need to do to reach your goals. Keep your goals far enough out of reach so that you continuously work toward them.

4. A bad day doesn't mean you have a bad life.

Everyone has bad days, so shake it off, and tomorrow is a new beginning.

5. Be thankful.

Not everyone has the things you do or is able live the life you were blessed with.

6. Call a family member.

They're right majority of the time, so look to those who love you unconditionally for the best advice.

7. Why not you?

I will never understand why bad things happen to good people, but you are never better than anyone else, so when something bad occurs in your life, think "why not me?" Instead of "why me?"

Everything will get better and your day will get brighter. Look for the good in your surroundings. God is all around you and will lead you in the right path.

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

Happy Birthday Cake

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?

So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.
