Journal Entry 1

Journal Entry 1
Jack Walsh

Sitting outside Espresso Royale on a beautiful Sunday afternoon, I had the idea of starting a journal. Not of the physical variety, but on here where I could talk about the things which pop into my head throughout the week, and how they affect me. Personally, I think it is a fun idea which would help me to better engage with my thought processes and creative self. So here we go...

The week, but more weekend of 3rd:

Overall, I would say that my week was very long. Full of deadlines and a full day of snow I was elated to finally feel the welcoming embrace of the sun and weekend. I was made even more happy when I decided to finally venture to the coffee shop I had seen driving into Lansing a month prior. It was warm enough, and the walk felt good as I walked over the cracked sidewalk with Grimes playing between my ears. As I entered this new territory, I felt the welcome that I always find in a truly amazing coffee shop. Those who know me, know that a finding a new one can quickly become my sole focus for weeks, and this was no exception.

As I sat at the little bar, sipping my nitro coffee and reading a book, I felt the welcome of spring. A rush of excitement hit me, and I will not be quick to forget my first spring in East Lansing.

Until next time,

Jack. :)

10 Reasons To Thank Your Best Friend

Take the time to thank that one friend in your life you will never let go of.

Thank You on wooden blocks

1. Thank you for being the one I can always count on to be honest.

A true friend will tell you if the shirt is ugly, or at least ask to borrow it and "accidentally" burn it.

2. Thank you for accepting me for who I am.

A best friend will love you regardless of the stale french fries you left on the floor of your car, or when you had lice in 8th grade and no one wanted to talk to you.

You're away from home and your mom who can take care of you and all you really want to do is just be in your own bed. You feel like you will have never-ending classwork to catch up on if you miss class, so you end up going sick and then it just takes longer to get better. Being sick in college is really tough and definitely not a fun experience. Here are the 15 stages that everyone ends up going through when they are sick at college.

Do as I say, not as I do.

Your eyes widen in horror as you stare at your phone. Beads of sweat begin to saturate your palm as your fingers tremble in fear. The illuminated screen reads, "Missed Call: Mom."

Growing up with strict parents, you learn that a few things go unsaid. Manners are everything. Never talk back. Do as you're told without question. Most importantly, you develop a system and catch on to these quirks that strict parents have so that you can play their game and do what you want.

"Friends" maybe didn’t have everything right or realistic all the time, but they did have enough episodes to create countless reaction GIFs and enough awesomeness to create, well, the legacy they did. Something else that is timeless, a little rough, but memorable? Living away from the comforts of home. Whether you have an apartment, a dorm, your first house, or some sort of residence that is not the house you grew up in, I’m sure you can relate to most of these!
