Love Found Me

"You'll find love when you stop looking."

Love Found Me
Alycia Daniels

They always say that you will find love when you aren’t even looking, which I believe to be true. In the beginning of high school, I was trying so hard to be with someone that didn’t want to be with me. Then I finally just decided to give up on relationships all together.

As soon as I decided to stop looking for the love, love found me. That someone happened to be someone who had been right in front of my face. Literally, right in front of me because he sat in front of me in one the classes I took sophomore year.

Yet it wasn’t until the summer of 2013 going into junior year when we first started talking to each other and getting to know each other. It’s kind of crazy to think about how we first started talking. I was just on Twitter one night going through my feed and I saw this tweet he had put out about movies and I decided to comment back. However, I didn’t think much of the conversation and that it would turn anything other than gaining a new friend.

But I was wrong. It didn’t take long for me to start liking the little things about you. The way you were so easy to talk to. How you were so driven to do good in school. As well as the quick and funny remarks you came up with.

From then I gained someone who I feel has become “my person.” My person who is always there for me when I need someone to talk to no matter what it is. Who will give me another perspective on a situation that I’m dealing with. Who will go on any adventure with me whether it’s to the grocery store, to the movies or McDonald’s to get some pancakes.

It’s crazy to think here we are almost three years later and I couldn’t imagine life without you.

It is that time of year again. Christmastime. It is one of my favorite seasons for a myriad of reasons. Here are just a few reasons why I love Christmas. This list is in no order of importance.

1. The Christmas decorations

I am that person who will decorate directly after Thanksgiving is over. This year, my roommates and I put the tree up in our apartment before we even left for Thanksgiving break. It is a great stress reliever for me to just sit in my living room and work on the huge amount of work I have before the semester is over.

5 Things To Do That Are Better Than Writing A Paper

Don't waste your time trying to write that paper when there are so many more interesting things you could be doing.

Writing a paper is never fun and is rarely rewarding. The writer's block, the page requirement, be specific, but don’t summarize, make sure you fixed any grammatical errors, did you even use spellcheck? and analyze, analyze, analyze.

Papers can be a major pain. They take up so much time and effort that by the end of the process you hate yourself and you hate the professor for making life so difficult. Questions of your existence start roaming in your mind. Am I even cut out for college if I can’t write a single paper? Am I even capable of taking care of myself if I lack the energy to open my laptop and start typing?
