Why Does Life Have To Be So Complicated?

Sometimes we think life is hard, but it is not really if we learn how to work it through.

Why Does Life Have To Be So Complicated?

I always wonder why my life is filled with so many problems and there is a little solution to it. There is so much that I can handle, but life says there will be so many things that you have to take in. So I compromised myself that there is always going to be so many things happening around me.

I never learned how to handle them, but I am trying to make my life better.

For example: If I have an exam to study for and I also have a club to attend so badly because club meetings occur only some times and I thought it would be cool if I went. The only problem is that I have an exam for the next day and I have to study for it today. These kinds of situation happens a lot to me. When I am finally thinking about going to a friends party, it would be the day that I have dance class. If I thought about relaxing for the day, I might have to help someone in my family for something.

It always happens like this and all the time I would think that things would get better, but it doesn't get better. Somehow you have to learn with these things. Sometimes I do have to take some hard decisions to make my life easier. If I want to go to a club meeting, then I can go next time because I don't want to fail in an exam. If I want to go to a party, then I can join later because dance is also important to me. If I have a free day, I should have some free time for my family and then I can enjoy the rest of my day.

There is always a decision to make. Some are easier and some are harder like my life.

Life is not complicated. We are the one who is making it look complicated. If we learn how to live with our problems, then it wouldn't feel like a problem instead it feels like you are born to break your obstacle.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?

Finals week is upon us. It is a magical time of year during which college students everywhere flock to the library in attempt to learn a semester's worth of knowledge in only a week.
