no heat vision, no levitation, no super strength.
we're just people who live our lives like everyone else. we try our best to make things better. we do stuff to better ourselves and those around us. we make due with what we're given. however, sometimes things don't go our way. sometimes our "best" isn't enough. sometimes you try to do the right thing, but it just backfires. whatever. we're then only left with two options: mope around or get up and keep moving. we rise and we fall, but thats life. there would be no upsides to life without the downsides. though it may suck, the little mishaps that happen to us is what makes life worth living. who would want to live a perfect life? never getting hurt, never losing anything. that'd be real boring. the obstacles in life that we encounter are the most exciting things. being able to handle yourself. it's not that easy to predict what will happen in the future, how things will turn out. all you can do is prepare. prepare to deal with choices and consequences. sometimes it seems like its too much to handle. sometimes we get overwhelmed with everything that we just want to break down and burst into tears. there are always people there to comfort you. the people who are available to talk. the people who would, to the best of their abilities, help you through your situation.
having gone through so much in the past few weeks/months, i've learned to not be afraid to let out your emotions. holding them in is just like suppressing a ticking time bomb. it'll explode eventually. instead, if you have to cry, then cry. then, wipe your eyes clear and rise above the situation.
as the semester begins to wind down, we can feel the pressure increasing. we can see where we stand regarding our academics and we know where we need to be. at the same time, there are other things that have grabbed our attention. it's easy to put things off 'til later, but sooner or later, we're going to have to set our priorities straight.
do work.
