Thread: ItsTheWriter's Triumphs, Failures, & Everything in Between

Valentines Day, 2019 Happy valentines day. I really hope you all find yourselves a rather peaceful evening. One either full of romance or sweets that could capture a feeling like no other. I hope you all find the best in what you're looking for. As for me in the future, hey Writer. If you ever have a problem when it comes to relationship advice, just know this. Ask yourself, is it worth fighting for? If it is, hold it and never let go. Do your absolute best. Temper your determination and strength with wisdom and understanding so you may break through whatever obstacles stand in your way. Unlike yesterday, I had a much better day today. Today is a day of triumph. I took a test that I was studying all week for. It was tough, as I was counting my expected grade. At a minimum, I should be expecting a B. At maximum, at least an A-. Hopefully, the odds are in my favor today. I want to make my girlfriend, friends, and family proud. I mean, if you choose to live right next to your university, you might as well use your time wisely right? One day, I'll be the hero my friends and girlfriends want. They were the reason why I took psychology in the first place. I wanted to better understand their behavior and steer them in a positive direction. Although I know that I can't replace a psychologist, the least I could do is offer advice to either seek counseling or making positive changes in their life that have a significant impact. I'm also slacking a bit on my recent homework assignment. Oof. Ah well, time to keep trudging my way forward. I also was guaranteed a better place with people who don't drink alcohol or smoke weed. Of course, I don't mind if people do so. I just prefer it if they don't do it where I sleep. I wouldn't want my college to think that I'm a stoner because the smell is all over my clothes. Nor do I want to drink right before a major test. I understand that Alcohol is a social drug. I just wish it didn't come with the side effect of damaging the brain. Especially when I'm paying so much to learn. I wouldn't want to waste it all away for a night of debauchery. I also don't want to influence my girlfriend into participating in bad habits because I do them. It's strange that I have underclassmen who call me senpai. They're just in high school, but they mean a lot to me. I spent much of my childhood with them even though they were so much younger. I hope they never lose sight of their goals. I understand I'm having high expectations, but its moreover because I want to see them succeed rather than to see them struggle. I'm feeling a lot better today. Enough so where I have a sudden mood high. Is that a thing? Maybe I need to ask myself if that's normal. Ah well, I might as well take advantage of it while it still lasts. Maybe one day, I could be the difference that my parents need. Oh, I wish they would take care of themselves better. I keep trying to push them to go to the gym for their own lifespan, but they are usually tired. I have a few fears about losing them. Each time I spend with them, I treasure. You never know when you lose the people you love most. The least you can do is tell them I love you before you go. It's a better farewell than goodbye. Anywho, I hope you have a great day. Happy valentines day.
