There’s nothing wrong with reblogging posts, pictures, links. I’m guilty of doing the same. 

But for once, express yourself. Be proud of who you are. No need to hide behind the facade of reblogged pictures of fashion blogs and quote dictionaries.

Take a step forward and let your voice be heard. Tumblrverse, I want to see you write something for once.  

Same ol.. same ol… hashtagmyliferevolvesaroundreblogging  

I’m not running away from anything, it’s not an escape. Adventures make the world I live in more beautiful that I once believed it to me. Adventures open my eyes to the precious fantasies this world has to offer. 

I love the feeling when you’re on an adventure. That tingling sensation you get from the anticipated excitement of discovering something new. The knowledge you find and the happiness it brings, I want to go on an adventure. 

Go on an adventure with me. 

… let’s just hope she can learn how to use it. -____- 

With a long 7-day homestand ahead and finals to end off my week, the unsettling feeling at the pit of my stomach keeps growing and growing. It’s not so much the pressure of it all that makes me anxious, but it’s the pure thought that the next 7 days are probably going to be hell that makes me sick to my stomach. 

I don’t really understand why this happens to me. Anxiety is just something that comes naturally, and I’ve gotten smarter on how to cope with things. On the verge of panic attacks, I just give myself a moment to breathe, and tell myself that everything will be okay.

I need this week to be over.

Please send me your well wishes of strength. I really need it right now.  

.. the people that tell me that I look pretty when I make an effort to dress up, when put on make up, and when wear flashy heels.. 

I appreciate… 

.. the people that still stand by my side when I change into sweats, when my make up smears off, and when I lounge around the house in my janky slippers….

…even more. 

And just for today, try this!

“Make Someone’s Day Challenge” 

It’s funny how much a simple “how are you?” can change a person’s day. Be there for someone, it’s not to hard to be a little nicer, smile a little more, or even catch up with an old friend. Try it.

Oddly enough, happiness is contagious, and it’ll probably make your day better too. 
 

It’s my ONE day off from work, I figure I’ll give this a shot. Post results later. :D 

..when you’re lying in bed, you let your mind wander. As you start to drift off into sleep, and you worries slowly wander away… 

… you realize what is truly important. 

Peace. Love. Happiness.

After what seemed like a tough hurdle of stress, these feelings of anxiety and panic are going away. Either I’m beginning to overcome my fear of failure, or I’m finding better ways to cope with my emotions. 

All in all, I really DO feel better.

Thank you to those few that have stuck by me these past few days. You know who you are.

 And in celebration of Mother’s day this upcoming Sunday, I leave you with a little piece of advice my mom told me this week. 

“Life never gives you something you can not handle. You wouldn’t be here if it did. Whenever you feel stressed out or alone, remember your blessings. You are so lucky to be blessed with everything you have. Never take it for granted. But if EVER you need anything, whatever hour, just call me. I’ll be here. You’re never alone.”

So for whatever struggles life passes our way, take it with pride, overcome it, and stay strong. Be there for others when they are in need, and they will do the same.

Ha, if you are reading this right now, thank you for listening.
