Keep it together

Hi!!

Keep it together

Warning: cussing is apart of my regular vocabulary



In hopes of maybe one day i could get my word out there. I'm going to say the normal regular stuff you will hear from anybody. It'll be fine. You'll be fine. Push through the pain please. What makes you happy? What is a good distraction from the pain? Use that until you are actually happy.

People always say only you can make yourself happy. You can't love someone until you love yourself. Hopefully I'm not the first person to tell you this. Fuck that. The amount of relationships I have where I love them. Rather or not it is platonic love. I have found the love of my life while absolutely hating myself. I love him. Being with people who actually make you happy allows you not to dwell on what you think is so bad about yourself.

I know everyone sees the flaws in themselves. The flaws you think are so bad other people don't see. Other people might even like that. They might even think it's cute.I can guarantee the people most important to you don't notice what you think is so bad. Those love handles or muffin top they don't see it as such a horrible thing as you might see it. They will love all of you because they love you. You are the one person they connect with the most. The one person who they want to wake up to all the damn time. Believe me if they've been around you for your morning shits, coffee shits, or whatever. They're staying. They truly love you even if your poop smells bad. They did their own thing while you're just sitting there takin a dump. That is a different level of love right there.

Many things will make you happy. Like I've already said one person can make you happy. That one tattoo you got. That one song. I'm sitting up late at night thinking how happy this one tattoo makes me feel. It was my most expensive tattoo to date but i love it. I'm sitting here thinking about this one song that's stuck in my head (fade in/fade out- Nothing More). Little things make me happy. Everyone has that little thing that makes them happy. You keep it together for those small things.

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.
