We have all been in a situation in which we cannot have a good time. Whether our time is spent alone or with company, sometimes, it’s hard to have a good time.

With so many stresses in this world, many of us have forgotten how to take away what’s on our mind and relax. To do so, I believe it’s important to simply live in the moment. By living in the moment, we can experience life to the fullest and save our worries for work and home.

Living life and enjoying life to the fullest is all about your mindset. By generating optimism and positive thoughts and ideas, you will find it to be much easier to enjoy life. Life throws unexpected surprises to us all the time. We just have to learn how to embrace these changes and live through the ride.

If you are along and find yourself bored in your company, this is a good time to sit or lay down and reflect. Look around and embrace everything you have. Listen, see, observe. The more you silence your mind and become aware, you will experience gratitude in life, no matter how bored you are.

In your own company, you can also learn something new or try to do something creative. Draw, write a poem, express your thoughts, listen to music, dance, sing, create a rap song, be you and enjoy life.

If you have other company around and find you are not enjoying yourself, you can always change that around. Find the things you like about other people and embrace those qualities. If they are talking, really listen to them and what they have to say. Maybe provide insight to their problems or reply with a witty response. Any time spent with another person is never wasted. Everyone you meet always teaches you something.

No matter what situation you are in, the key to having a great time is to push all of your troubles to the back of your mind. Write your worries in a journal and come back to them later. You were meant to spend alone time or time with some or a lot of people for a reason. Learn to listen, see, and observe so you can live in the moment and fulfil every aspect of life-- that way, you won’t be miserable, but will be fully alive and living!

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.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.
