What It's Like To Be In Love

If you've ever been in true love you'll know exactly what I'm talking about. There's that one person who drives you absolutely crazy. In good ways and bad. You fight over the dumbest stuff, but at the end of the day there's no one else you'd rather get in bed next to every night. You feel so loved, supported, and important. They make you feel good about yourself. They never tear you down. They make you feel beautiful on your worst days. They make you laugh even when you aren't sure you even remember how to smile.

When you're in love you'll do anything just so to see that one person smile. You'd drop everything just to make sure that their needs were met. You fight for them every day. No fight is too big or lasts too long. After a fight, you go back ten minutes later and it's like the whole thing never happened. The feelings you have never go away. They just keep getting stronger and stronger every single day.

You hear a love song and suddenly it's not cheesy and stupid anymore. You think of that person and smile. Maybe even shed a tear because you realize how lucky you are to have someone like them in your life. Any time something bad happens, you run to them like they are your shelter. You need them more than you need air. You can't get enough of them. The thought about them being with anyone else except you makes you physically sick.

They are home. They put your heart at ease. Things with them seem simple. When all hell breaks loose, they are the one you run to. You don't have to think about anything except the fact that you know that you are a hundred percent safe when you are with them. You are safe from physical harm, mental stress, and emotional pain. They are your sanctuary. They are your assurance that there is still some good in this chaotic world. They are your rock. The one stable thing you have. They are your home.

With them, you feel like you can conquer the entire world. No task is too big and no problem is too complicated with them by your side. Superman has nothing on you when you're in love. You'll do anything to make sure they are safe too.

But the most amazing thing about being in love is they make you realize that being in love is as great as it seems in the movies. Yes, you have your downfalls and fights but the love you receive and give is worth so much more than any of the negative things you could ever endure in your relationship.

Being in love with the right one will be one of the best things that will ever happen to you. I promise.

5 Things To Do That Are Better Than Writing A Paper

Don't waste your time trying to write that paper when there are so many more interesting things you could be doing.

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?

sisters

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.

If you’re anything like me, you love a good cup of coffee. My coffee always comes from Starbucks; I refuse to drink it from anywhere else. Over the years, it’s become one of my biggest addictions.

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.
