Living life with less distractions

I guess this is good for me, at least for now. During high school, I was so preoccupied with too many things and a lot of the things that I obsessed over was actually pretty stupid and pointless. I lost sight in my goals, my priorities, my beliefs, and ultimately things that really should have mattered. Ever since I started college, I’ve had more time to myself and I’m so thankful to be close to my family and home because I think I would’ve been an absolute wreck if I decided to go straight to a 4-year university. I’ll admit, life gets kind of lonely when the number of new friends you made at community college is less than the number of fingers you have on your hands. But overall, I’m enjoying this kind of down time that I am receiving. Less distractions:more time to reflect and to improve upon yourself.

Long overdue

  • I haven’t been on Tumblr in over a month
  • I LOVED Black Friday shopping this year! $170 spending spree at H&M, new boots, and a new Coach bag! Yay! Macy’s is so awesome. I ended up buying my boss a small coach pursue for about half the original price! So cheap! hehe
  • I got to see my friends that I love so much! Christmas tree at Union Square and our usual bread bowls! I’m so happy that we got to spend time with each other! Reminds me of the good old days of Mr. Sullivan’s calc class! :)!
  • Finals…
  • Ihategaptheyaretheworstemployersinthewholewideworld
  • ABG and AGS is finally done for the semester. I met a lot of good people there!
  • I don’t think I’m gonna consider economics as my alternative major anymore…I’m leaning more towards Political Economy, Legal Studies or Public Health.

Did some soul searching

I think I found something meaningful in life that I can work towards.

Since college started, I’ve learned to be more grateful. Yeah, I’m still living at home, I’m missing out on the “college experience” and I might not have so many friends at city, but I’m still thankful. I used to think that my life sucked and that I was really unlucky. Now that I think about it, I’m ashamed to have been so narrow-minded and ignorant.  Every time I think about my family and all of my friends who have been there and supported me, I can’t help but smile because it’s really all I ever asked for.

Right now, I’m going through a lot of things, but emotionally and physically, but I’ve learned to calm myself down, to relax, and to sit quietly to clear my mind up. It’s been kind of hard not seeing people I’m used to seeing on a daily basis, but I have my priorities straight and I’ve never been so motivated or driven before in my life.

Oh, and no one warned me about how difficult college was going to be! :( Yeah, I might be in a CC, but it’s still hard!! >:(!
