To The One Who Lost All Faith

Cherish the ones that don't and hold the ones that do near and dear to your heart.

To The One Who Lost All Faith,

Your whole life you were taught that if you want something you need to work for it. Nothing has ever been handed to you. Back then maybe you thought that was a bit torturous but now you look back and you are so thankful. You're thankful that at such a young age you were taught that so when you grew up you didn't find out the hard way. We were taught to live your dreams and never give up until you fulfilled them. But my question is, how are you supposed to fulfill them if the ones your surrounded by, the ones you love, the ones you thought once believed in you don't agree? They tell you that your goal is too hard to reach. They tell you that it's a dream for a reason, get back to reality. They tell you that you're not good enough. They finally tell you that they don't think you can do it. They lost all faith in you, but they're wrong. We set goals and dreams so we can work for it, you can't expect it to come on the first try or it to just be handed to you. I think they forgot that part. For anyone who has believed in me and than lost all faith, I thank you. Thank you for pushing me more than I have ever pushed myself. Your negative outlook on my life is all the encourage I need. It will take time and there will be many difficult obstacles in the road but you will get there. If you give up, you are letting them win the fight. This is your life and nobody else's. If you live your whole life listening to what other people say you will be living a life of lies. Stay strong, you will get through this and throughout this journey you will see who believes in you and who does not. Cherish the ones that don't and hold the ones that do near and dear to your heart. One door closes, another one opens. Have an open mind and open heart and promise yourself that you will never give up.

Sincerely,

The Girl Who Is Never Giving Up

mu bucket list

I was sitting at my cubicle, now that I am an adult, looking at the rain pouring down on the windowsill, bumming on life, wishing for the rain to just stop for a full day.

There are moments where we count down the hours until work is over and how many more days till the weekend, and this many weeks until something exciting. Or something like that? Well, I was bumming because my next day off from work is not until Memorial Day weekend, which is not until the end of May. And since this is my first year out of college being a “real person,” I am totally missing the winter, spring and summer breaks. I am sure all of us have felt this way even if just for a hot minute…

It's officially December. There is less than a month of 2023, and I still feel like yesterday was summer. Now comes the merriest time of the year, the Christmas season.

Everyone has been waiting for this time of year since mid-October (which is way too early, in my opinion) or before. It's a time of love, family, memory-making, and gift-giving. A lot of times when I ask friends and family what they want, I get a lot of "I don't know" or "I don't care."

If you go to or went to Kent State, then more than likely you have done or will do some of these things.

1. You’ve slipped and fallen on the ice at least once.

The winters at Kent are brutal, and while the heated sidewalks and some great snow boots are always a help, there’s no chance you won’t bust it on the ice at least once in your four plus years at school.

Christmas is literally so close. We can almost taste it. But there is just one thing standing between you and the big day: FINALS. It's not the studying, lack of sleep, last minute cram sessions or crappy food intake that is the worst... but the fact that you cannot focus because, well, CHRISTMAS. How do professors expect you to focus when Christmas is soooo soon. For all my fellow Christmas lovers out there, I feel your pain.
