Accept the fact that, sometimes, life just sucks
Now please, as you read this, hold onto your judgement before you call in the cavalry or label me as callous, negative, or straight up morose. I intend on bringing things in full circle. So, where was I? Ahhhhh, yes, accept the fact that, sometimes, life just sucks. I merely mention this because I feel that sometimes, as a society, we lose sight of what a true miracle being alive actually is. Something bad happens and all of a sudden it feels like it is the end of the world. Typically, it is over something fairly insignificant when looking at the grand scheme of things. It could be that you failed a test, you didn’t get into the school that you wanted, your car broke down and you couldn’t make it to work or class, you didn’t land that job you wanted, or [ Insert whatever crap thing that you are dealing with here].

Flag Room Fun
A very interesting location in Texas A&M University is the Flag Room situated at the Memorial Student Centre. It is one of the most beautiful rooms on campus and has years of history associated with it. It is one of my favorite areas to sit, relax, make friends, and study in. Therefore, I decided to dedicate a post to this beautiful student lounge which is, practically, “the living room of Texas A&M.”...

Who are you fooling?
Last night I had a dream that I had agreed to be in a musical. (Which has not happened since I was voluntold to be the Big Bad Wolf in my third grade class’ production of the Three Little Pigs.) I was going to be a character called Eliza and I thought it was all just going to be good fun. It started out as a laugh, just a few friends putting on a show and being silly. Then things began to escalate, as they tend to do in dreams. I realized I didn’t know the name of the production. I frantically ran around and asked person after person, “Wait, there’s a script?!” I had thought we were just goofing around! “We have to SING SONGS!? I don’t even know how they go!” I panicked and ran through a building that was now a huge performance hall, trying to find the stage. I was terrified because I had absolutely no clue how to follow through on what I committed to but I knew the other people in the play were counting on me, they needed me.
