Looking forward to it

You are sitting on a boring class, you've been listening to professor presenting an important but soo boring lesson for half an hour already, and time goes by so slowly. But you know, after class finishes, you will have a break and grab a coffee with your best friend, while discussing random stuff. Maybe you are tired from school overall, but no need to worry - holidays are approaching and you will get (hopefully) at least a short break.


When you are at your workplace, and you have tons of work to do, think of that lunch break you will have soon. Think of that new book you recently bought and you will read once you come home. Think of that phone call you will make, calling a friend you haven't heard from in a while.

See time goes by, and there is no way you can stop it. So you can either complain of too long work hours, even if you work regular 8 hours, but you know it will eventually pass and you will be sitting at home with a cup of coffee or tea, browsing Instagram or other stuff online, being with your family. Look forward to it.

Parents - unconditional love

Parents are some of the most important people in our lives. They teach us life, they give us advice and guidance, but most importantly, unconditional love. Of course, not all parents are perfect. They are human, and they have their own lives that don't affect us directly. And there will be cases when they will have some disagreements. Now I know there are some dysfunctional families, divorced parents, or worse cases. This time I won't be talking about those. I want to focus on 'ordinary' families and ordinary arguments. So, you hear your parents are starting to argue about something. What should you do? First, try to ignore it. Like I said, they may have some issues that don't affect you directly, their personal issues. So go to your room, turn on some music and try to ignore the argument. Or go outside and take a walk. By the time you are back, in most cases, they will settle the issue by themselves. Don't take it too personal. Anger tends to c

Overthinking

You are laying in your bed, trying to fall asleep, but your mind just won't shut off? Instead of trying to get some rest and get ready for the following day, your mind wanders from mistakes you made in past, to issues you will have to face in the future. Well, I guess you realize you are overthinking. See, while at day, when we are busy doing other things - eating, socializing, playing online games, watching TV, listening to music, reading - we are often focused on those things and our mind does not have the need to wander. At night, however, when we get alone with our thoughts - well, it can be a problem. Over-thinkers tend to over analyze their past. While it may be helpful to rethink of a mistake you made and make a lesson out of it, thinking of it over and over again, annoyed at yourself why you did not do it other way, it can only be harmful for you. Having an important exam tomorrow? Worrying how will you do, a hundred 'what if's', 'should ha

Wish I knew - Elementary School

Elementary school wasn't the most pleasant experience of my life. I did many wrong things, made wrong choices, things I regret. Years after, looking back at those days, made me realize what should I have done better. This is dedicated to you, who may be struggling or wondering what are you doing wrong. - One bad grade doesn't mean it's the end of the world. If you came unprepared for test and got a low score, no need to cry about it. You can study harder and improve it next time. But you also have to remember final grades will have a significant impact on your future life. - Don't let them use you. If you see some 'friends' hanging out with you only when they need a help for a test or homework, never be afraid to say 'no'. You may feel you'd be losing friends, but frankly, they were never friends at all. - It is okay not to know all the answers. Those years may be sensitive, and you may have millions of questions. Talk to your older
