Two seconds can lead to life-long memories.

A Picture Is Worth A Thousand Words

They say a picture is worth a thousand words. If you look at a picture, you’ll remember those times and those memories. You’ll remember details about that memory - what you were wearing, what you said, how you felt and so much more. I am not saying to live life through your phone and never take your eyes off the screen because you are so busy taking pictures; All I am saying is that you should document your memories through life to remember them in the long run. All it takes is less than two seconds to snap a picture and have it in your memories forever.

From the major events in your life to the bittersweet ones, snapping a quick picture goes such a long way. Whether it be a video at your favorite artist’s concert or a Snapchat of a funny event that happened to you, document it. It is amazing how much happiness you can feel when you come upon a memory of a time where you simply thought life was amazing. Those moments are not always apparent in life. So, it is important to always have memorable memories there to make you remember how you felt in that time.

Looking back at the times when you had so much fun is truly the best feeling. It allows you to live in the present but remember the past so that it continues to make you happy. So, next time you are having just the time of your life, take a quick picture of it. Two seconds on the camera can lead to remembering memories filled with fun, laughter and happiness.

I've known you your entire life. More than likely I held you in the first three days of it and at least one of us cried. Cousins are truly one of the best things in the world and while sometimes I complain about how many people crowd Grandma's living room on Christmas Eve, I wouldn't trade you all anything.

You are my best friends, the only people who can understand what it's like on Thanksgiving, and you are the spunkiest people I have ever met. But you as so so young, most of you are just now starting your adventures in the public education system. I mean, I'm so very young too. I'm not married, I don't have children, heck, I just started my adult life, but I do want to give you what little advice I have. My dears, these are the things I want you to know.

You are a senior in high school, you have made it to the final year that you have been looking forward to since the first day of freshman year. Whether this has been the worst or best four years of your life, appreciate it. You will never have these times back, you will never be in high school again. It is hard for someone still in high school to wrap their brain around, but there will be a day when you wish you could be in the shoes you're in right now. Here are 15 things I have learned being in college that I wish I knew as a high school senior:

Everyone, and I mean everyone has heard of the show "One Tree Hill". Many people think that this show is the best thing they've ever watched and others won't bother watching it because they know they'll get hooked.

Trust me, once you start "One Tree Hill", you will be hooked. There's way too many reasons to list as to why you'll love this show, and these are just a few.

The first two weeks of classes have come to an end and they have been anything BUT easy. It seems like life has been serving up more bad than good and in all honesty, the only thing you want to do is crawl under your covers and hide from the rest of the world.

Although this seems like the best solution, it is also the easy way out. Take it from the girl who took basically a whole week off from her life because she just could not handle everything that was being thrown at her. This caused her to feel extremely lonely and even more stressed out for being behind in classes that JUST began.
