If I Were To Die Tomorrow

If I were to die tomorrow.

If I were to die tomorrow, I’d want each and every person that has come into my life to know that I love them. No matter how long or short you were a part of my life for, I love you all as equally as the next. For those whom I’m closest to you’d find a letter summarizing just how much of an impact you had on my life. An impact that only you would have the power to bestow upon me.

If I were to die tomorrow, I know the world would still strive on without me. People might miss me, but eventually they’d be forced to move on with their lives. I would want them to move on with their lives, I wouldn’t want they’re burning flames of determination to die when my soul died, I’d want it to burn brighter and stronger than ever before.

If I were to die tomorrow, I’d want to be a symbol to my loved ones in some way. The warmth I love and carry with me would be symbolized by the sun’s rays warming the side of their cheek. Perhaps, maybe even a gust of wind to help calm them down when they have too much on their plate. I would want to be the one to help them take that extra breath of fresh air when they’re in need of it the most. Even though I’d be gone, I would still be there for them.

If I were to die tomorrow, I would look back at all the things I’ve done, places I’ve been and memories I’ve made. Then, I’d look at what I had left to do in the plans I had made for my future. I would be proud of my past and if possible I would continue with my plans for the future, just not in the same way as before. I wouldn’t lay at peace if I didn’t yet accomplish what I wanted to do. However, if I couldn’t accomplish what I had yet to do living while dead, I’d have to find peace somehow. I have a feeling I’d find that peace within those who I left behind.

If I were to die tomorrow, this would be the only way possible I’d be able to say I love you and Goodbye to those who I cherished the most.

We shouldn’t have to think about death, but it is a natural part of life. Every day we lose people in this world, so hold on tight to the ones we still have with us. Forgive, forget, and move on before your time is done. You don’t know when their times going to be up, and you never know when your time will be up. Live everyday like it’s your last, and love everyone like it’s their last day.

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
