Everything Happens for a Reason

Everything happens for a reason

Do you believe that everything happens for a reason? I don't want to think of the what ifs or should I have done that? On July 1,2017 I was laying on the grass during that little storm we had. I faintly looked up at the sky while it was pouring down rain. it was hard to see while I looked up at the trees and imagined what if. My car was giving me issues. The one weekend I actually had plans. I was thinking was it meant to be? Why am I getting to having bad luck. Why me? I ask myself continuously what makes this world IT. Why are we forced to do certain things that may end up to be good or even great and some you need to deal with the consequences. Why do we have a voice in our head? How is our body working? Why do we meet certain people that once we're total strangers who became someone you can't live without? Why do we choose certain things? Why do we like certain people? Why do we dislike certain people? Why do we grow up to be certain people? Why this why that? Why does medicine help us get better? Why is the world like this? Why is each invention different but known to do great things? Why is the color blue,blue and not brown? Who made these names for these certain colors? Why are our parents our parents? It's crazy how this world is made. I have so many questions that are unanswered. But the same questions that are coming through my mind is, everything happens for a reason. Some things happen that you expect to happen and some things happen unexpectedly. We don't always choose what we want to happen. We just go with the flow. These questions often pop up in my head but strangely as far back as I can remember, when I was just a little girl I had all these questions I used to ask my parents and they never had a good answer. They always said "I'm not sure" or " I don't know" but when I started to get older and older I decided to stop asking my parents these crazy questions because they obviously gave me an answer I didn't want to actually hear. That's when google came into my life. Shockingly my mom was shocked I knew how to work a computer. Most technology came easy for me, especially phones. But over the years I came true to myself that I won't be able to find out every single question roaming through my mind. Which I came to accept that. I 100 percent believe that everything happens for a reason. Do you? Do you believe that every bad situation turns into a good one? I'm aware that everyone's minds think different and occasionally think the same. We all have different ideas. We all like different things. Nobody is the same. I mean it's rare who likes everything you like. Nothing's impossible. But after 20 years of life, certain moments make me believe that everything happens for a reason.

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.
