How to deal with Post-College/Summer Stress

Vacations...Oh the joy!!!!

Well if you are a little kid, maybe. But if you have had a really stressful and harsh time during the past months, it may be hard for you to really go full on Summer mode. Well. if thats not truly your case, then you sir are an awesome and yet mysterious person, that I fail to understand.
Anyway, as I was saying, you may need a little push to enjoy the laziness you deserve. Being a college student in a very energy consuming course, I often have this problem. I just cant seem to be able to relax when I no longer have anything to do. It's just like...work,work,work and then nothing, nada, zero, it's just a very quick transition, and it may be hard for some people to adapt to it.


Here are a few tips on how to get rid of that pos-traumatic stress that follows you around everywhere you go:




1 - Sleep. In modern times sleep is something you don't get, so make sure you lazy out on the world. A little summer hibernation as never hurt anyone.

2 - Go to the beach, go hiking...whatever. Just do stuff that you weren't able to do when working. Just do random stuff that reminds you of freedom, that takes work to a hole different universe.

3 - Go meet up with some old friends. Friends from times when everything seemed for ever, people that really make you happy. I'm not talking about those random friends you meet, I'm talking about your bros.

4 - Try something new. It may be a different hairstyle, a new hobby, a new tradition, like going to a different restaurant, or taking a different route home; it just as to be something that will be related exclusively to your Summer and nothing else. I'm not saying that you should change yourself, I'm just suggesting that you should evolve in some aspect of your life.

5 - Finally, be Happy, fell Amazing and Enjoy life. None of this tips will work if you don't fell joy in every single thing you do. 

Now seriously, being happy may seem hard and sadness may feel like the easiest way out, but it isn't. Happiness gives you everything, whilst sadness never ends and it will just consumes all your light until it goes out and there's nothing left. Listen, if the sun doesn't make you happy, try and enjoy the rain; if the sight of babies smiling at you makes you wanna run, don't look at them; if you just hate your life, Change it. Dude, NO ONE CARES!!! Your happiness is yours to make and preserve. People around you will try and help but they won't be there forever. You have to take care of yourself, and being healthy isn't all about you physical health...it involves your emotions too. After al, they are all a part of the same.

What I'm trying to say is: If you are able to be a happy person in every aspect of your life, then everything you do, everyone you meet will just add, and in the end, you'll think back smile and say: Yes, this was a good ride.

This entire article might sound tacky but it's the truth. I'm ending the post with a "Braveheart" quote, but it just sums up everything I wanted to say: Everyone dies, but not everyone truly lives.

Thank you for reading.

You are awesome

Life Update

So...I know I haven't wrote to you random stranger in some time. But yes, I've been busy with this weird thing called college, it's like a thing that's supposed to help you get a better future or something, idk.

Anyway, I just wanted to tell you that the most marvelous thing happened. I have this really difficult class that most people fail on the first year, and I had it already fixed in my mind that I wasn't going to be able to do it. I was really sad because all my effort would go to waste, and I didn't have any hope. Still I decided to take the exam...and guess what? I DID IT. Of course it wasn't the best of grades, in fact it was the worst possible, but still I did it!!! I FUCKING MADE IT!!!


Okay, the point of me writing this is to tell everyone that has the time to read this:

-Don't ever give up. Even if everything looks like it couldn't be worse, even if you fell like there's just no hope...Don't let go. If you do nothing, you are condemning yourself to fail. But if you just try, you can either lose and do it again, or you can win. It can either be god, angels, luck, or just random chance. Whatever the reason, there is still that one door that will lead you to victory!!!
Yeah, I might be dramatizing this to much, but me completing this class made me cry tears of happiness, and that never happens...NEVER.

Thank You For Reading :)
You are awesome
