Inside My Head: Part I

They said that it would be easy. That it would get easier if it wasn’t already. I don’t believe life is supposed to be easy. Why would something so fragile be simple to any of us? What is the fun in the simplicity that we all seem to be seeking? You’re lost, but aren’t we all? We are expected to get up, get out, and learn who we are every day, but how are we supposed to do that in a world that is unbelievably cold to the thought of change and difference? How are we supposed to ensure that the world is going to be better for the next generation, the generation of our children, their children, and eventually our children’s children’s children? With the constant hostility in the world toward new things you’ll never truly be able to be who you think you can be, or who you want to be. In a world so conniving, evil, and cruel how is anyone supposed to change anything at all? We make new laws just to create new ones. Something is okay here, but that same something isn’t okay there. What you did today was alright, but what you do tomorrow may not be alright. I really don’t know if anything is going to ever be “alright” in this world. These articles, just like you and me, are a work in progress, there is nothing wrong with progress. If you take one step every day toward what you want out of life or what you want to be in this life, you’ll get there. You may not get there tomorrow, or next week, next month, maybe not even next year, but eventually you’ll have everything that life intended for you. So bare with me while I make what I want to do in life a reality, stick around, it may be worth it.

We are forced into this world with no knowledge as to who we are going to be, who we want to be, or what we will make ourselves. As i said, we are forced here. Our parents decided that they wanted a child, or in some cases, they didn’t choose, we just kind of happened. Accidents. They happen. Sometimes they are good things, other times they’re bad, but they are just another part of life and we have to learn how to deal with them. Our parents put us here without us knowing that we would be faced with so many problems when we grew up. They were able to protect us when we were young, guided us to where we are now, and although you may beg to differ, they created who you have become. But now, times are changing. You may be exactly like them, you may be the complete opposite of them. But no matter who you have become, they helped you realize who you wanted to be. You grew up seeing their struggles and how they parented you, and you determined from those actions how you wanted to see your life pan out. Maybe they had other people helping them raise you, those people watched you learn and grow into who you are too, they got you where you are now just as much as your parents did. There are so many people who influence who you become in life, it isn’t all on you. Up until now I constantly worried about being like someone I did not want to be, I also worried that I would not become who I actually did want to be. I’m still becoming who I want to be, I may be

writing for my own personal benefit at this point, but I find it hard to believe that I am the only one in need of this. This being my thoughts and my fears, which I am sure I am not the only one who has or will experience them. There are so many people in this world, someone is bound to have something in common with me.

I think the hardest thing about going away to college is figuring out how to become an adult. Leaving a household where your parents took care of literally everything (thanks, Mom!) and suddenly becoming your own boss is overwhelming. I feel like I'm doing a pretty good job of being a grown-up, but once in awhile I do something that really makes me feel like I'm #adulting. Twenty-somethings know what I'm talking about.

I went to a small high school, like 120-people-in-my-graduating-class small. It definitely had some good and some bad, and if you also went to a small high school, I’m sure you’ll relate to the things that I went through.

1. If something happens, everyone knows about it

Who hooked up with whom at the party? Yeah, heard about that an hour after it happened. You failed a test? Sorry, saw on Twitter last period. Facebook fight or, God forbid, real fight? It was on half the class’ Snapchat story half an hour ago. No matter what you do, someone will know about it.

Chandler Bing

I'm assuming that we've all heard of the hit 90's TV series, Friends, right? Who hasn't? Admittedly, I had pretty low expectations when I first started binge watching the show on Netflix, but I quickly became addicted.

Without a doubt, Chandler Bing is the most relatable character, and there isn't an episode where I don't find myself thinking, Yup, Iam definitely the Chandler of my friend group.

Working with the public can be a job, in and of itself. Some people are just plain rude for no reason. But regardless of how your day is going, always having to be in the best of moods, or at least act like it... right?

1. When a customer wants to return a product, hands you the receipt, where is printed "ALL SALES ARE FINAL" in all caps.

2. Just because you might be having a bad day, and you're in a crappy mood, doesn't make it okay for you to yell at me or be rude to me. I'm a person with feelings, just like you.

3. People refusing to be put on hold when a customer is standing right in front of you. Oh, how I wish I could just hang up on you!
