10 Major Keys To Make Your Semester Boomin'
Medium

DJ Khaled has taken over Snapchat, and the entire internet really, with his "major keys to success." Well, here are some major keys to make your semester boomin', just like business always is for DJ Khaled.

Eat breakfast.

In the wise words of DJ Khaled, "They don't want you to eat breakfast." While this makes no sense when he says it, it really is a major key to making your semester boomin'. Wake up a little earlier than you need to so you can eat breakfast, in order to keep yourself from thinking about food instead of listening to your professor (I know I'm not the only one that does that). Also, we all hate that one person that brings their food to class and sits behind you while munching on what sounds like rocks.

Always take your best shot.

DJ Khaled preaches to take your best shot in whatever you do, and this is great advice. Whether it be taking your best shot on your test, or asking that hottie out on a date, always take your best shot.

Show fan love.

Because every normal college student has fans, right? Well no, but in a way, you do. You have family and friends that support you and cheer you on in everything you do. Show them some love! Everyone loves to hear they're appreciated, and it'll make you feel good for making them happy. It's a win-win, really.

Know it's OK to get lost.

DJ Khaled told us that it's OK to get lost at sea. While most of us won't really get lost at sea, because between the classes, parties, and sleep we love, we don't have time to go ride our jet ski's all day and end up getting lost. However, this is a great lesson as well. We are young! It is completely okay to get lost sometimes, or to be lost all the time. College is about finding yourself and learning what your calling is. Not everyone has their life figured out. I take that back, no one has their life figured out. So, take a deep breath and remember, it's OK to get lost.

Celebrate with Ciroc Green Apple.

OK, so no, we aren't going to be celebrating being a millionaire (or whatever Dj Khaled celebrates on a daily basis), but we do have little victories that deserve to be celebrated! Like passing a test, hitting a new personal record for how many marshmallows you can fit in your mouth, or walking to class instead of riding the bus. Whatever your victory is, no matter how big or how small, celebrate it! And if you really wanna be like DJ Khaled, then do it with Ciroc Green Apple.

Keep people around you that lift you up.

It's a new year and a new semester, so let those people go who only bring you down. You have a goal, whatever it is. If someone isn't helping you get there, then you don't need them. No one needs negative energy in their life.

Exercise.

If DJ Khaled and his big ole ass can make it to his in-home gym and work out, so can you. Find some time each day to do some sort of exercise, even if it's doing crunches during the commercials while you're watching tv. They don't wanna see you healthy and sexy. Prove "they" wrong.

Start every conversation with, "This is off the record."

If you're like me, you have paparazzi everywhere you turn trying to twist your words. Okay, obviously I'm kidding. However, no matter where you are, someone is always watching and listening. You don't really need to start your conversation with your professor with, "This is off the record, but..."; however, be cautious in what you say.

Give thanks and bless up.

Always, always give thanks, and always bless up. Yes, there are going to be tough times, and you're going to want to scream. Instead of getting upset when things don't go your way, try to give thanks for what you do have. You may have made a bad grade on that test, but at least you're able to attend college in order to better your future. Remember to bless up.

Remember that even though there will be roadblocks, you will overcome.

Life is going to throw you some roadblocks in your journey to success. That's just a simple fact of life; however, remember that you will overcome them. If you really have your mind set to something, there are going to be things, maybe even people, that try and get in your way. Do not get discouraged, but instead, push through and prove them wrong. Keep your eye on the prize, and stay faithful to yourself and your values. You will overcome.

These are just 10 of the many major keys from Dj Khaled that will lead you to a boomin' semester. And once this one is over, it will lead you to another one.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
