5 Ways to Become Happier

1. Freshen up your space. Whether this means a deep clean, some new pillows, or even a new paint color, it is important to love the places where you spend your time. Try giving places such as your bedroom, your office, or even your car, a bit of TLC. Trust me: it will be worth it.

2. Spend some quality time with people you care about. It can be your friends, your family, your dog, it doesn't really matter. It is important to know that you are loved and a great way to feel the love, is to share the love. Gosh, if everyone knew and understood this concept, the world would be a much happier place.

3. Step outside of your comfort zone. You never know, something life changing could be waiting for you and you could totally miss out because you are too afraid to go out and look. Great days don't jus happen, they are created. If you really want to be happy, get out there and do something about it!

4.learn something new. The only thing that we take with us after we die is our knowledge. Why not learn something new? You never know when it might come in handy.

I personally find such great joy in making other people happy and honestly, what makes people feel better than when you give them a compliment.

30 Things I Wish I Knew Before Starting High School

It is NOTHING like the movies.  Being super involved in sports isn't everything. If you want to be valedictorian, you need to decide 1st term of freshman year. You need a LOT  less  school supplies than you think you do.  Time flies A LOT faster than you think it will. Failing a class isn't the end of the world. If you don't go on a lot of dates, IT IS NOT THE END OF THE WORLD.  Find something that you love and stick with it. Don't be afraid to make new friends or lose old ones.  DO NOT MISS CLASS. 1 hour of missed class = 2 hours trying to catch up. If you have a hard time remembering your locker combination, write it in permanent marker on your hand. Keep it there until you can remember it.  Having a good teacher is better than having an easy teacher. Only rent a locker if you need one. I ended up spending $10 to rent a locker last year and never used it.  Don't use binders. They are heavy and take up a lot of space. Opt for a no...

The Writings of Baby Julie | Installment #1

Hi Guys!  This past week, I have been sorting through old folders and files, trying to clean out my flash drive and I stumbled upon a bunch of old writing. I read this one and thought it was pretty good. It was from my English class when I was a freshman. Hope you like it! (And if you don't like it, don't tell me. This essay has little bits of my heart woven into it.) ~Julie ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- It's Okay to Cry by Julie Ackerson Purple skies of rain drenched my sorrowful soul as I watched the casket being lowered into the ground. The tightly woven tension crept through the chill morning air, threatening my ability to stay strong. Don't cry Julie, don't cry. I  listened to the people who spoke and held my tears through the whole program. I  looked around me and a tear began to arise in my eyes. I  could no longer hold it. The single tear slid down my face. I ...
