I am sure I am not the only person that thinks T.J. Maxx is heaven on earth. Most of the time I go into the store not really needing anything, but still, somehow I end up with a total of $80. Here is a list of thoughts I have had while in the store.

"Oh look, super cute headphones!"

"I already have four candles but the more the merrier, right?"

"Wow, this face mask is made with gold? Sign me up!"

"No one has to know this cute T-shirt is from the guys section."

"Suddenly I want to decorate my entire house."

"I can't NOT go to the sale section."

"I HAVE to get these shoes, I probably won't find them next time I come."

"Another pair of yoga leggings never hurt anyone."

"I know I never write in notebooks, but I'm probably going to buy this anyway."

"I probably shouldn't sign up for that store credit card. Or should I?"

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?

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.

College involves a whirlwind of emotions, whether it’s from the stress of an assignment (or twenty), or from fighting with your roommate. It can be overwhelming at times and it’s important to take a step a back and calmly think things over. Maybe gain some perspective.
