To Love and to Be Loved

As we grow from a child to an adolescence we begin to realize what it should be like to love and to be loved. As an adolescence, we go through a series of relationships that show us what love really is and what it is not, sometimes what is taken for granted, sometimes what we forgot. When you're i n a relationship make sure you are with someone who makes you happy, you makes you feel good about yourself. Make sure it's someone who motivates you, encourages you, reassures you, and is there for you when you need them. Now we must understand it's obviously hard to find people like and on top of that makes sure you like and accept them as they are. You want to have some things in common and share secrets, but mostly laughs and lots of love. The most important thing of all is when you are with someone who loves you and you love them, don't let go.

Do not give up on them because of what is going on, you have to remind yourself why you started dating in the first place or why you said "I love you." I believe if you truly someone you will never give up on them no matter what the conditions are. When you really love someone, you won't ever stop loving them. True love does exists we must realize we love with our free will. We love a significant other because we want to not because we have to.

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!
