You know that feeling of hopelessness, well that’s how I felt…

We all might wonder why things happen the way they do. I know I do, but sometimes it’s for the best right? I don’t know how some people can even handle this type of situation. Me on the other hand, I get pretty upset. I mean it is okay to feel upset, it is part of being human. We all have feelings and emotions that need to be expressed at times in our lives. Well, that is what happened to me. It came to my realization how many things I have lost after putting just so much effort into. You know, I don’t think anyone would want to work so hard for something, something happen, and then it seems like you just wasted your time. I hate that. I know that will happen in life, but it is just so frustrating and annoying. Why did I work so hard to get where I am just for something to go wrong. It honestly makes me feel very hopeless. I shouldn’t feel that way, yes I know, but I did. It clearly wasn’t easy to accomplish everything that I did. It took long hours, practice, running all over the place, and no sleep. I will say I’m glad for everything that I accomplished, but then when I try to take another step to something else, it didn’t quite go so well. I just wanted it to better my life and future. This might sound like I am giving up or something, truth is, I am not. I will never give up on anything I want. I’ll do anything to make them happen.

I thought my whole life just went crashing down. But, that is what I thought, after listening to people’s advice, I re-thought my problem. It came to my clear hard-headed self that there is more out there. It isn’t too late for anything as long as you know that you are working for it now to make them happen. Maybe that didn’t hit me because I was just so caught up thinking how hopeless I felt. Now that it hit me, I feel much better, I feel confident, and motivated. At the end of the day, I am aware of my own accomplishments and opportunities I have received. I am satisfied with everything and ready to accomplish more things each day.

For those who might be feeling hopeless as well, don’t quit, don’t give up, keep standing tall and move forward. If you keep feeling the way you do, you’re the only one holding yourself back from doing better things. Stop feeling so afraid, defeated, or just angry. Instead, learn something new and move on. Think about it, at the end of the day, you are the only one who got yourself, your friends or family may support you, but it’s not them creating your life, you are. You have a control of your life, so make it all count. Nothing is worth losing, life will not always turn out the way you want it too, just accept it. I am done feeling so hopeless and I am now ready to move forward and continue the good I have been doing so far.

"Friends" maybe didn’t have everything right or realistic all the time, but they did have enough episodes to create countless reaction GIFs and enough awesomeness to create, well, the legacy they did. Something else that is timeless, a little rough, but memorable? Living away from the comforts of home. Whether you have an apartment, a dorm, your first house, or some sort of residence that is not the house you grew up in, I’m sure you can relate to most of these!

There is nothing quite like family.

Family is kinda like that one ex that you always find yourself running back to (except without all the regret and the angsty breakup texts that come along with it).

No matter how long your class is, there's always time for the mind to wander. Much like taking a shower or trying to fall asleep, sitting in a classroom can be a time when you get some of your best ideas. But, more than likely, you're probably just trying to mentally cope with listening to a boring lecturer drone on and on. Perhaps some of the following Aristotle-esque thoughts have popped into your head during class.

Bob's Burgers is arguably one of the best and most well-written shows on tv today. That, and it's just plain hilarious. From Louise's crazy antics to Tina's deadpan self-confidence, whether they are planning ways to take over school or craft better burgers, the Belchers know how to have fun. They may not be anywhere close to organized or put together, but they do offer up some wise words once and awhile.

We're in college, none of us actually have anything together. In fact, not having anything together is one of our biggest stressors. However, there's a few little things that we do ever so often that actually make us feel like we have our lives together.

1. Making yourself dinner

And no this does not include ramen or Annie's Mac & Cheese. Making a decent meal for yourself is one of the most adult things you can do living on campus. And the food is much better than it would be at the dining hall.
