10 Small Life Wins That Feel Like Winning The Lottery To A College Student

It's not the day you win the lottery, but the day you find a dollar on the street that counts.

Your high school graduation, your best birthday, New Year's Eve, prom...what do they all have in common? They're all memorable! They can count as some of the biggest moments in your life, and you probably have photographic evidence of each tucked away somewhere in the depths of your photo gallery.

But what about those neglected moments in life that we experience daily—moments we are all thankful for, but forget as easily as the Staples Easy button? What about those underrated memories that honestly give us that warm, happy feeling in our bellies?

Let's all take a second and appreciate the top 10 underrated feelings we experience in our lifetimes:

1. Hearing an old song you used to jam out to play in the middle of the store, bringing back all memories ever.


2. Getting into bed after a long—LONG—day.

3. Putting on fuzzy socks. Period.

4. When eating a sandwich, you get to that bite right in the middle that makes your mouth water.

5. That feeling when you put on warm clothes after a shower—there's just nothing like it.

6. Just seeing that cute dog on the street... #letdogsruletheworld.

7. Getting to that day when enough time has passed that you can wear your favorite outfit again.


8. Walking by a booth and getting offered free samples — clearly nothing else in life feels this freeing, literally and metaphorically.

9. Being complimented randomly — even when it happens in a restroom at Outback.

10. Finding that new song you know you'll be annoyed of soon, when you literally decide to slay that replay button.

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:

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.
