The Versions Of Love
Pinterest

The most overwhelming, mind consuming, body compelling feeling you have ever felt. It’s love and it’s powerful. Love makes you do crazy things. Things you would’ve never thought yourself to do until after you’ve done it.

There are so many different versions of love. Love for your family. Love for your friends. Love for your pets. Love for your passions. Love for your partner.

Every type is important and vital to living a full life.

Love for your family. These people are your blood and no matter what happens, the love never dies. You fight with your parents? Siblings? Cousins? You walk away, come back and it’s like nothing happened.

Love for your friends. It is a love similar to that of your family, but you get to pick these people. The love you have for them is a choice and that’s what makes it special. You love them as if they’re blood, but knowing there is no actually tie makes that bond even stronger.

Love for your pets. Do I even need to explain? Animals are angels that humans do not deserve. Pets are there for you through anything and everything. If you have one, you know. Whether it’s a cat, dog, bird, iguana, pig or fish…that love is forever.

Love for your passions. Your passions are what give you your fire. They’re what drive you to be all that you can be and put your love into something great. Passions give you purpose and the love for them is what will take you far in life.

Love for your partner. Your best friend. Your favorite person. Your go-to. Your love. This love is like no other. You feel as though this person is your other half, your better half, but you are already whole. The power of love is that you combine together to make double the person. Your two strong, whole selves build off one another and this bond is a love that is far different from the rest.

Love is what make the world goes round. If there is no love, there is hate and a world with hate is not a world that is enjoyable to live in. Fill the world with your love and it will be that much better.

The Daily Struggles of Being a College Commuter
morethanwheels

I've been in college for four years now. I spent half my time as a commuter and half as a resident so I've experienced both sides of the housing spectrum. One thing I've learned comparing the two is that my struggles as a commuter far outweigh anything I went through while living on campus. Commuters have to deal with the problems school brings along with a slew of other issues; I've filled up my gas tank in the worst kind of weather conditions and napped in random places in public more times than I'm proud to say of. This is a list of some of the most challenging aspects of being a commuter.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!
