No Significant Other is Alright

Not one person needs to go through life thinking that being in a relationship is the only way to be happy.

No Significant Other is Alright
MSECND

All around, you will see couples everywhere. You see holding hands, kissing, laughing, etc. All of your friends may have someone that they never shut up about. I can see how that would make a person feel excluded from the circle.

But guess what? We have ALL been there. Every single person knows how it feels to not have a significant other in their lives. The more you think about it, the more it sucks. It may feel like the world is ending, but that should not be the case at all.

This goes out to all ages out there, especially the younger population. There are some out there that believe that they need someone else's hand to hold to be happy. I am so tired of hearing that. A person should not have to feel liked by the opposite sex or even the same sex to be complete in life, especially if you are young.

Who cares if you don't have a serious relationship? Be young, go on multiple dates, and just have fun. Eventually that special someone will come along....you will know when that happens. Just stop worrying about it and live your life. Everyone is a special person and has great friends...spend time with them and once again go out and have some fun!

The point of this is that you do not need someone. Everyone deserves to be happy, but you can be happy with your own person. Be happy with everything you have, not what you don't have. Focus on a bright future and I can bet that everything else will fall right into place.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.
