Having a crush is all fun and games until the feelings you have for the person get more serious than you originally planned then its all abroad the train to stress city. Does he feel the same? Am I blowing things out of proportion and romanticizing too much? What if he just wants to be friends?

What if telling him my feelings messes everything up? These are the common thoughts that go through every girl's head when faced with a serious crush.


Now don't get me wrong realizing you like someone is really scary, you never know what another person is truly feeling, but sharing those feelings you have is worth every last bead of sweat. The worst that can happen is that the other person doesn't feel the same way and although that's a big punch to the gut, you gotta think.. what if this is the guy for me? You have to be honest about your feelings.


Telling your crush in itself your feelings is a thrill. The rush of adrenaline that you'll get from being vulnerable will leave you buzzing for days and if he feels the same it could last for months.

Plus it makes you look super confident, not only does it make you look like you're oozing self-esteem, it shows that you are strong and not afraid with sharing anything and gives a lasting impression.


AND it'll stop you from overthinking, over evaluating and plain just driving yourself nuts. The longer you hold your feelings in, the longer they'll bounce around in your brain and make you question everything. As soon as you express your emotions, that will stop. Put your mind at ease and just be honest with the guy you've had your eye on.


WORST case, they don't feel the same and you're just one person closer to finding your prince charming, BEST case scenario you both feel the same and get to explore the feelings and have a little fun together. We need to stop being stuck on the 'What Ifs' and just figure out point blank what's going on. Stop stressing, stop bottling things up, shoot ya shot and be happy or move on. We aren't here to be playing games anymore.

Mistakes are something we all make, no matter how old we get. Most of the time, the mistakes we made are little and sometimes due to something out of our control. Yet, there are mistakes that are bigger than others. Personally, I have mistakes that I wish I could go back and undo. Here they are:

5 Things To Do That Are Better Than Writing A Paper

Don't waste your time trying to write that paper when there are so many more interesting things you could be doing.

Writing a paper is never fun and is rarely rewarding. The writer's block, the page requirement, be specific, but don’t summarize, make sure you fixed any grammatical errors, did you even use spellcheck? and analyze, analyze, analyze.

Papers can be a major pain. They take up so much time and effort that by the end of the process you hate yourself and you hate the professor for making life so difficult. Questions of your existence start roaming in your mind. Am I even cut out for college if I can’t write a single paper? Am I even capable of taking care of myself if I lack the energy to open my laptop and start typing?

sisters

I can barely remember back when I was the only child. Most would say it’s because it is extremely difficult to remember things as a toddler but I would say it's because I was bored until my sister came along. My mother always says how important the "sister bond" is and with every year that passes I realize how right she is. Instead of writing a novel about all of the wonderful things there are about having a sister I decided to list a few of them instead.

It is the time of our lives that we are beginning to enter the adult world and most of us, if not all of us, have no idea what we are doing. It's like starting a video game, but skipping the tutorial. We're all just running around aimlessly hoping we accidentally do something right that moves us along the right path. Now that graduation has just happened, or is right around the corner for some of us, it's time to start thinking about how we are going to take care of ourselves once we are on our own.
