start doing what makes YOU happy !!!

hey guys !!! 

today's post is going to be about happiness. & what you can do to achieve it. I believe happiness is a temporary feeling. I have yet to be proven wrong. but I also believe you are responsible for your own happiness. you have to do things to get there. even the smallest things can make a person happy. so I'm here to encourage you to do those things !! for example for me: I recently became a blonde from a brunette. I felt like it was time for a change, so I went ahead & dyed my hair blonde. it feels liberating & great to do what you want. I felt happy being able to do something so little such as changing my hair color but super meaningful. I encourage you to step up & do something you've always wanted to do because life is too short. also, never depend on anyone to make you feel happy. you'll just end up getting disappointed !!! If you're reading this, make a list & start doing the things on there !! :-)

love makes you blind

I'm writing this because it's how I'm feeling at this very moment. when you love someone so much, so strongly & so deeply it makes you oblivious to stuff. when you're in love it causes all the bad things to not look as bad. you start making excuses as to why they do what they do. love makes you blind. it drives you crazy, too. sometimes I wonder why we feel such feeling so deeply that our vision becomes "foggy?!" it hurts to give your all to someone & it not be good enough. I mean maybe it's because they're just the wrong person. or the timing is off...who knows ! everything happens for a reason, right ?? anyways, thought I'd write this quick little post since I'm not active here....if you're reading this just know you aren't the only one feeling a little confused about your emotions or why you feel how you feel. it's a natural & common thing we all have to go through....

much love

finding what you're meant to do/who you're supposed to be...

hey everyone ! I don't know if anyone right now currently feels or is going through what I'm going through, but I currently feel LOST. I am 22 years old, I haven't finished one full semester of college, I've been working in retail since I was 16 years old. numerous things have slowed down my college career. Now that I may have an opportunity to actually go back to school I have no idea what I want to do. I feel pressured by people & myself to quickly find my niche & get my degree. I have a huge fear though....I don't want to end up like everyone else that graduates college- either hating what they do or not finding a good paying job in their field. I do not want to waste years & money trying to do something I might hate. I'm already going through that...I feel super lost as to what I truly want to do. Yet everyone tells me I'm still young & I can do what I want to do. I guess I am my toughest critic at the end of the day. I don't want to FAIL ! I feel like I've already wasted so much time & energy making huge mistakes & failing in many departments that I do not want to keep on doing so. I guess I'm just trying to be the best I can be. I have a hard time relaxing or taking a backseat with certain things. I hope I can get the hang of this soon because I can't keep this up. If anyone shares my pain, please leave a comment !!!
