Another Freshman Year
Freshman year…gosh I couldn’t have asked for anything more amazing. I definitely chose the right place for me. Everything about that school is beautiful and colorful and full of pure excitement. Everything from the weather, the campus, and the people especially. It seems like everything that has happened in the past 8 months happened yesterday. I will never forget orientation, meeting some of my best friends because they came and randomly knocked on our door one night and asked if we’d like to walk around and meet people, rooming with one of the most driven (and hilarious) girls I’ve ever met, playing pranks and other shenanigans with the lovely girls of Walsh 7, meeting my best friend Rachel who is the sweetest girl ever, meeting the love of my life (I can write a whole other essay on that), becoming a starter on the UM Quidditch team and traveling to NY for the world cup, football games, basketball games, drunken nights in the Grove, sober nights huddled in my room watching movies, baseball games, days in the library, concerts, picnics, trips to Sunset, crafty times, hammock times, pool days, beach times and all the other times in between.

Notes"Go be that starving Artist you’re afraid to be. Open up that journal and get poetic finally. Volunteer. Suck it up and travel. You were not born here to work and pay taxes. You were put here to be part of a vast organism to explore and create. Stop putting it off. The world has much more to offer than what’s on 15 televisions at TGI Fridays. Take pictures. Scare people. Shake up the scene. Be the change you want to see in the world. You’ll thank yourself for it." -

Notes"Only once in your life, I truly believe, you find someone who can completely turn your world around. You tell them things that you’ve never shared with another soul and they absorb everything you say and actually want to hear more. You share hopes for the future, dreams that will never come true, goals that were never achieved and the many disappointments life has thrown at you. When something wonderful happens, you can’t wait to tell them about it, knowing they will share in your excitement. They are not embarrassed to cry with you when you are hurting or laugh with you when you make a fool of yourself. Never do they hurt your feelings or make you feel like you are not good enough, but rather they build you up and show you the things about yourself that make you special and even beautiful. There is never any pressure, jealousy or competition but only a quiet calmness when they are around. You can be yourself and not worry about what they will think of you because they love you for who you are. The things that seem insignificant to most people such as a note, song or walk become invaluable treasures kept safe in your heart to cherish forever. Memories of your childhood come back and are so clear and vivid it’s like being young again. Colours seem brighter and more brilliant. Laughter seems part of daily life where before it was infrequent or didn’t exist at all. A phone call or two during the day helps to get you through a long day’s work and always brings a smile to your face. In their presence, there’s no need for continuous conversation, but you find you’re quite content in just having them nearby. Things that never interested you before become fascinating because you know they are important to this person who is so special to you. You think of this person on every occasion and in everything you do. Simple things bring them to mind like a pale blue sky, gentle wind or even a storm cloud on the horizon. You open your heart knowing that there’s a chance it may be broken one day and in opening your heart, you experience a love and joy that you never dreamed possible. You find that being vulnerable is the only way to allow your heart to feel true pleasure that’s so real it scares you. You find strength in knowing you have a true friend and possibly a soul mate who will remain loyal to the end. Life seems completely different, exciting and worthwhile. Your only hope and security is in knowing that they are a part of your life."Bob Marley (via suejaybluejay)

A (much needed) (self inflicted) Slap in the Face
I feel like my life is rushing by. The clock is ticking out of control and there’s no way to stop it.
I so often dream about the future.
I feel like I forget about living in the present.
But when I begin to live in the present.
I feel like I’m forgetting about my future.
I should be perfectly happy. I am perfectly happy.
And yet, I feel like I’m missing a little bit of something.
Like I could be doing so much more.
Is that it then? Even if everything is perfect, will I always feel an emptiness—
STOP. THIS IS STUPID.
Happiness is being satisfied,
Am I satisfied? Absolutely. I’m on top of my work at school, (I could be doing a little better in Bio but that always gives me trouble.) I have great friends, a loving boyfriend, a beautiful college, a wonderful education,a job for the summer, a plan for life, and a supportive family back home.
Being grateful for what you have,
What I have…everything that I’m blessed with. My home, my college, my clothes, my food, my friends, my family <—Costa Rica taught me to be grateful for the simple things.
For the love you receive,
My boyfriend…waking up next to me every morning and loving me every second of the day and night. My friends…from back home staying in touch, and my new friends here loving me even while I still try to figure out who I truly am. My family…calling me every few days to check in, giving me motivational speeches, missing me, supporting everything I do <3
For the gifts that God has given you.
Gifts? Refer back to everything stated above <3
As I sit outside on a beautiful day with the birds chirping and the sun shining, I couldn’t ask for anything better. If I continue to work hard, and remember to take no second for granted and live life to it’s fullest, all my dreams will come true in due time. I started this day in an “off” mood, and now I can’t stop smiling.
Thank you God, for everything and please forgive me for the short (temporary) oversight of all the beauty in my life <3

Notes"‘I love you’ means that I accept you for the person that you are, and that I do not wish to change you into someone else. It means that I will love you and stand by you even through the worst of times. It means loving you even when you’re in a bad mood, or too tired to do the things I want to do. It means loving you when you’re down, not just when you’re fun to be with. ‘I love you’ means that I know your deepest secrets and do not judge you for them, asking in return that you do not judge me for mine. It means that I care enough to fight for what we have and that I love you enough not to let go. It means thinking of you, dreaming of you, wanting and needing you constantly, and hoping you feel the same way for me."Jonathan Safran Foer (via suejaybluejay)
One word of this I would like to change: “… hoping you feel the same way for me.” -> “…knowing you feel the same way for me.” (8
