When You Know, You Know

Everything happens for a reason.

As a firm believer in the universe, I try to live my life based on the cliche quotes that you've likely tweeted one too many times. My favorite quote is a line by Marilyn Monroe, I believe that everything happens for a reason. For a while, no matter what happened, I was constantly telling myself that, no matter the circumstance or result, it was supposed to happen. At times I thought, there is no way this is supposed to happen like that, but I trusted the universe and just let it takes it course, and I am forever grateful I did.

Recently, I've began a life in the city. It's not something I was completely familiar with, but had an idea about. I left my friends at my old school, and am seeking new friends at my current school, and although these aren't always the easiest circumstances as a junior in college, I know it is completely worth it. I'm aware of this because of the feelings that overtake my body as I go class to class, and live life day after day. I can honestly say I know the exact reason that l transferred, and moved to the city: to be utterly and confidently happy. The city is a place that already has my whole heart and happiness, and it has only been about a week.

I have a constant feeling of excitement and pure joy like never before. Although, at times, I am unsure of many things, this is something I am positive about.

I'm not writing this to share my story about how I transferred, but rather, to let all my readers know that, it is okay to trust your gut. Those around you may appear to have believe they know what's in your best interest, but the only person that genuinely does is you. For some crazy reason, something invisible to the human eye has an incredible way of changing your life. If you feel like you're in the right place, you likely are, and vice versa. Our body's know us more than we give them credit for.

Trust your journey in life, because everything that happens is likely preparing you for substantial merriment.

Epic Creation Myths: Norse Origins Unveiled

What happened in the beginning, and how the heavens were set in motion.

The Norse Creation Myth

Now, I have the everlasting joy of explaining the Norse creation myth. To be honest, it can be a bit kooky, so talking about it is always fun. The entire cosmos is included in this creation myth, not just the earth but the sun and the moon as well. This will be a short retelling, a summary of the creation myth, somewhat like I did with Hermod's ride to Hel.

8tracks radio

We all scroll through the radio stations in the car every once in a while, whether its because we lost signal to our favorite one or we are just bored with the same ol' songs every day. You know when you're going through and you hear a song where you're just like "I forgot this existed!" and before you know it, you're singing every word? Yeah, me too. Like, 95% of the time. If you're like me and LOVE some good throwback music, here's a list of songs from every genre that have gotten lost in time, but never truly forgotten.

beer on the beach

Summer is hot and humid, and it's almost like summer was made specifically to drink the refreshing, cold, crisp wonderful, delicious, nutritious nectar of the gods. Which is none other than beer; wonderful cold beer. With summer playing peek-a-boo around the corner while we finish up this semester, it's time to discuss the only important part of summer.
