I’m Only 19 But I’ve Found The Person I’m Going To Settle Down With

And no, I'm not making a mistake or an impulse choice.

I’m Only 19 But I’ve Found The Person I’m Going To Settle Down With
Lauren Brocious

Yes, I’ve found the person I’m going to settle down with for the rest of my life.

Yes, I know I’m only nineteen and I’m young and have the world ahead of me.

Yes, I’m also aware that ½ of marriages end up in divorce.

And I’m also aware of the current state of the world and the financial responsibilities.

And yes, I know it’s going to be rough making ends meet sometimes.

I know we both will be in student debt trying to pay our rent.

And I know we both will be trying to find jobs.

But this is what WE want.

WE want to build a life together and grow with each other every day.

WE want to be next to the person that builds them up in situations that tear them down.

WE want to make a future for our own and be successful human beings.

WE want to be together because once you’ve felt this feeling, you’ll never let go.

And I know this won’t be always easy, but WE ARE determined.

WE ARE not like other couples are age, we don’t party, drink, or practice drugs.

WE ARE believers that society is forgetting what commitment is.

WE ARE best friends, business partners, sometimes worst critics, and each other’s half.

WE ARE both Christians and believe in God has a plan for us and loves us.

WE ARE only human and sometimes we make mistakes but this is not one.

WE ARE what each other has dreamed about finding and are stuck like glue.

WE ARE successful college students who invest time in their studies and future.

WE ARE both greek-affiliated and don’t care if friends go out and party.

WE ARE leaders in the community and want to help others succeed.

WE ARE only ourselves. We don’t try to live up to anyone’s standards but our own.

WE ARE different from others, we are ourselves and that what makes us unique.

The Daily Struggles of Being a College Commuter

It's not all morning coffees and singing along to the radio.

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.
