This question is one that has crossed every single mind on this planet. “Why am I here?” I believe that there really is no reason as to why you are here. Asking why you are here is like asking why you got out of bed today. Why you ate breakfast today. Why you decided to have orange juice and not milk. Why you decided to bike rather than drive to class. There is no definite answer or reason to your actions. You yourself determine the reason why you were brought into this world. The reason you are here is whatever you’d like that reason to be. Do you want to save lives? Become a doctor or police officer. Do you want to be wealthy? Work hard and make use of the resources presented to you. Do you want to change the world? Then stand up for yourself and understand that nothing will come to you easily. This world was not made to tend to our every need. You might think that you’re nothing but a tiny speck in this world. What could you possibly do? You can do anything. I understand that you may have your reasons to be discouraged. You might think that because you were not born into a wealthy family, not the best looking person, not smart, not athletic, not charismatic, not a good speaker, not a good learner, or not a good person, that your dreams are unattainable. The truth is, all of your desires, all your needs, lay right at your fingertips. You must understand that as a human being you are only limited by the expectations that you have set for yourself. If you set a goal for yourself and aim for it, it will only be a matter of time until you achieve it. However, when you choose that goal, don’t ever waver from it. Don’t let anyone or anything lead you astray from that glorious path that you choose to walk. You and only you are in control of the one thing that is truly yours. Your life. The real question is, how badly do you want it? If you never try, it’s a given that you will never achieve your dream. Life is too short to be sitting idle waiting for something to happen. If you devote every ounce of your being into what you do, success lies at the end of your journey. Think of your actions as if they are strokes of a paintbrush on a blank canvas. A few strokes of the paintbrush may seem insignificant. Nonetheless, as you persevere, one stroke is added onto another until finally, you have created a masterpiece. Don’t view life as an impossible test of your abilities. Think of it as an opportunity. An opportunity for you to leave your mark on this world. A resolute and unfaltering mark that cannot be eroded by the overbearing waves of society. Life only moves forward. It is time to move forward with it. I leave you with this quote. “Sometimes, struggles are exactly what we need in our lives. If we were to go through life without any obstacles, we would be crippled. We would not be as strong as what we could have been. Give every opportunity a chance, leave no room for regrets.” - Junethea Crystal Centeno
I’ve realized that every country has it’s own ups and downs. We should not be so naive as to view things from only our countries point of view. There is always another side to an argument or problem. This world is not perfect, nor is our country. Before making accusations I feel that people should do research and see with their own eyes what other countries are going through and the struggles that they have or had to face. I feel that with knowledge we can achieve what we’ve been striving for all this time, and that is peace.
There are a lot of things that are going well in my life. Ever since I left to college I think my parents like me way more. Don’t get me wrong, they liked me a lot even before I left but it seems like every time I visit they just smother me in hugs and kisses. They always want to take me out to dinner and it’s great because my parents are hilarious. I ran track in high school, but I’m currently not on any sports team. I work out almost every day though so that I can stay fit and to work off the calories from drinking. I’m definitely not trying to get the freshman 15 though it’s bad for that. Since coming to SB, I’ve made many close friends and we’ve been through a lot together believe it or not.
When I first came to SB I was like, “damn everyone listens to techno here”. At first, I wasn’t used to it but it’s chill now though. I burn almost every day but you know, it’s cool because I have those iron lungs. Just kidding, I’m trying to quit eventually but that’s how it is. One thing that has been frustrating to me is that my debit card is not working! I have no cash on me and all my money is stuck in my bank account. No matter how many times I swipe my card I feel like my wallet is just destined to be empty. Machines got me messed up these days.
Last quarter I was doing a lot of stuff and ended up with a horrible gpa. This quarter I’m working really hard to bring up my gpa so that I don’t have to constantly worry about whether or not I’m messing up in school. I’m a science major so I have to take chemistry and all of that good stuff. My classes are way harder than I expected them to be. Actually, the labs are the hardest because my TA has the thickest accent in the world. Really, I’m not trying to be mean. It’s frustrating for me because he doesn’t even help with anything or teach and people in my lab are getting low scores on the lab because of that. I’m in a long distance relationship right now and to be honest it’s hella work.
I also don’t understand why I was put on the quiet floor at FT too. The first day that I came to SB, I looked outside my room and thought to myself “whaaat”? It is ultra dry on the quiet floor, I won’t lie. One of my homies moved from FT to Santa Rosa and he says it’s chill there. I heard the RA’s aren’t as whack on campus… A challenge in my life that I’m currently facing is the dining common food. It was whatever at first, but now it’s bad. I don’t know if I can eat that food every day because Woodstocks has better pizza than DLG hands down any day yolo!
I feel like there could be a lot of challenges in my life if I wanted them to be challenging. I don’t think that you should view life as a challenge because then you’ll feel like it’s hard to accomplish things when it really isn’t. What goes through my head most during day is the question “Where will I be 10 years from now?” . Well I’ve come to the realization that life is not something that is planned out for you. You aren’t going to wake up one day and suddenly be super smart, wealthy, or famous. I realize that you have to live in the moment of things and take life one step at a time. You have to have a dream and a goal for who you want to become and to do what you can right now to achieve that dream.
