If You're Questioning Your Relationship, You Already Know The Answer
New Girl

If you're having recurring doubts, it's time to sit back and read into it. No, don't overthink it. That's something I'd definitely do, so easier said than done, but just take a deep breath and if you feel that one tiny squeak deep down in your body that says something is off, then something is off.

It's not your period. It's not the stress from school. It's not what anybody says. It's your gut telling you something.

If there was a second that you were worried if he loves you or not, then you're not feeling it. There is no need to backtrack and think when this itsy bitsy hunch came about. It doesn't matter what happened. It doesn't matter how stupid or insignificant. If you're questioning something, then you've got some trouble.

I don't want to hear about a pros and cons list.

Love doesn't work like that. And if it did, that would suck, the romance would be buried in a dark hole and never seen again.

But, I get it. Deciding is the worst part. Making decisions that will personally impact you and your world, isn't a piece of cake. I'm not going to stand here and tell you that it's one, two, three—easy peasy. But, don't be afraid of this step.

It doesn't matter if you've been together for three months, one year, or five. If you think, "Oh! Maybe it'll get better, I just have to give it some time." No! You don't have time to waste. There will never be a good time to say goodbye, but you have no reason to be scared of being alone. You'll always have yourself and you're more than enough.

Do I believe in giving people chances? Duh. Do I believe that, in general, our generation has a fear of commitment (count me in, as well!) and that we are too brusk with swiping from one person to another? Yup. But, if you're with someone and you've been walking around with this blah sense inside of you, you don't have to ask yourself if this is a good relationship. You already know it isn't. You're not happy and it's time to find you a big bucket of glee.

You can't run away from your heart telling you something isn't right. And, if you try, it will only burn hotter later on.

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!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.
