The Perfect Day

Where Everything is Good

The Perfect Day

Someone once asked me what my ideal perfect day would be, and I gave them the first answer that popped into my head. The most generic joke answer I could think of, just watch netflix all day. But then I got to thinking. What would my ideal perfect day be? I think a lot of the time people waste their days by just being sedentary, and trust me I am one hundred percent guilty of that, but if I had to think of my perfect day it would be doing something that would make the most of my 24 hours. I would wake up and hang out with the people I really care about, and do things that matter. I would make sure everyone that meant something to me in my life knew how much they meant. I would find a way to make a strangers life a little better, and probably eat the most amazing food I could imagine. I would find someone I could talk to for hours with, and actually take the time to talk to them for hours. I wouldn't be unsure if someone really cared about me, because they would remind me. I would spend the day not being confused or sad, but having a thorough knowledge of what was going on in my life. I think the best day would consist of not overthinking every little detail of your life. I would not get sad about what ifs, or things that happened in the past. The perfect day to me, would just be one where I am sure about everyone in my life, and they are sure about me. It would also probably consist of a field of flowers and like 10,000 puppies if I'm being honest. Life is short and I have realized lately just how precious it is. I wish everyone could think that way, and let it be known that you care about someone because you might not get another chance. I think the perfect day would just be one where you have it all figured out just for the day, where nothing seems to be going wrong, but if something does fixing it comes easily and without any sadness. What I want in my perception of the ideal day is not something extragagent or intense. Its pretty simple yet, it rarely ever happens. Just one where I am consistently happy all the way through, where no one is unkind, or messes with your head. Where people care about how their decisions effect other people. Just a day where everything is truly truly good, and no one is able to ruin it. One where you don't have to be in a state of worry, because you know exactly whats going on. I think one of the hardest parts about life is uncertainty. Without it the world would be so so much easier. A day where the only thing you were uncertain about was what adventure you were going to go on or what food you were going to eat sounds like the perfect day to me.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead.

You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?
