TOP 8 Things You Should Know Before You START College

Sometimes it's better to learn from the mistakes of others instead of making your own - I wish I knew these things before I went to COLLEGE. Dear College Freshman,   RELAX! There is no law that says life must be completely figured out by 18.  High school is over, and college is a whole new ball game. It is scary at first, but it will be your second home in no time. College is the place that you will find some lifelong friendships and find out who you truly are. It’s the first time you'll feel truly independent by staying on campus. Coming to the realization that High school is over is so scary but just know that you can get through it. At first, it is going to feel overwhelming because everything is new, the people, the class schedules, the fashion and the college lingo. Yep! I've been there and it is so weird at first. You are not going to be  a freshman forever. After the first month or so you will know the college campus like the back of your hand. Lo...

Haters Are ALWAYS Looking Over Your Shoulders

          About three years ago, my college roommate and I went to the Hershey Factory in New York City and we were having a blast. I decided to take a pictures of me with my favorite food of all time CHOCOLATE of course. We were just having a blast enjoying the city and I even posted pictures on Facebook like any normal college student.   We had no worries until someone in the Facebook comment section was making fun of the guy in the background. We thought to ourselves, What guy in the background? This was embarrassing but funny at the same time.  How did we not see him in the background ?                  Began to set your eyes on the prize like the girl in the picture and ignore the obvious haters in the background because they are nothing but secret admirers anyway. I believe having a bit of haterade in your corner means that you are doing something right.  This image brought a ...

A Positive Mindset Can Help You Become Successful

        A Positive Mindset can help you Become  Successful:  When something bad happens to you, you can either   let it destroy you, let it define you, or  make you stronger.   I t's up to you to make that decision.   This is a very hard concept for many people to get because at times they let their circumstances determine their end results. Try to always look at the good in a situation it will be very difficult but it is definitely possible.  Don't be a negative Nancy because ain't nobody got time for that.  If you continue to always see things in a negative manner many people will not want to hang be around you. I am not saying that it's not okay to be there for someone but if they are always being negative outside of normal emotional crisis. Peace I will be gone because I can't be around people who are constantly draining me of energy for unnecessary stress that I can be using for somethin...
