The Story Continues

 It is kind of crazy how everybody returns back to what they were originally supposed to do--what everybody is originally passionate about, motivated by, and excited towards since they were a child.  And here I am, back to what I love doing, too.  It is pretty wild to see how a whole year has passed--how many friends I have made, how many memories I got to experience, and how much I have learned.  I have learned more within this year than I ever have learned my entire life.  I have met people that have changed the way that I view life and think of others.  Through ..read more

I Thank God
The Juice Box

 I was just sitting in my dorm room, thinking, going through pictures, and reminiscing on some memories. This past week, just like every other week in a college student's life, is crazy.  But, the weekends are for taking a deep breath and taking a nice break.  Lately, I have been the happiest human alive, keeping God in my mind, and spreading my love to others.  I haven't been living in the future, I've been taking one day at a time, and I have been holding on to the little moments in life that make me smile.  I never thought that living in the present could make me fe ..read more

What Does Success Even Mean?
The Juice Box

 Greetings to all of my loyal readers who are taking the time out of their day to read my post.   I am writing this blog post sitting in my dorm room, again like last week, but on better terms.  Last week I was feeling down and out about a lot of things happening, but I am in much better spirits this week.  Swimming actually began, and we have been practicing non-stop (some two-a-day practices), and I am definitely feeling sore and tired.  Swimming, for me, is kind of like an escape.  And everybody has their escape in some aspects.  Whether it be video games ..read more

Not About the Money

After a couple weeks of a break, I am here.  There was a lot of stuff that was happening in my life that I wanted to take care of before I sat back and started writing on this blog again.  But, after a small break, I wanted to share some things that I've experienced recently that really hit me. The last time I wrote on the blog was during a period of division in this country and a lot of malevolent behavior.  Arguments, fights, name-calling, and disruption reaped this nation, and I was appalled. I was upset with the way people were acting and I spoke up about it on this blog. &n ..read more

Log off, and Love Life Again
The Juice Box

3y ago
 I've taken a break off of social media and this blog for about a week.  This week has been brutal in America.  Riots, protests, fights, arguments, and hate being thrown around left and right on social media.  In general, Instagram, Snapchat, Twitter, and even TikTok are very toxic places to be spending our time.  People are cussing each other out, fuming with anger- social media is a war zone.  And it is that way because nobody can listen to each other.  Our generation is so accustomed to not listening to each others' opinion and why they think that way. &nb ..read more

Take the Bad Days with the Good
The Juice Box

3y ago
Lately, I have been so focused on spreading positivity and motivation and I have failed to mention the aspect of life that isn't as fun.  Life isn't all about sunshine and rainbows, and I think that it is 100% important to discuss the days that just don't go as according to plan.  Yesterday, I had a day that just kept beating me up.  I heard some bad news in the morning from the second I woke up, and then, repeatedly throughout the rest of the day, I felt like I kept on getting punched and kicked by life.  At one point I just wanted to go home and go to sleep and get rid o ..read more

Taking Care of Our Bodies
The Juice Box

The act of taking care of our bodies is something that has been mentioned in the Bible many times.  It is something very important, and something that we need to do a lot of in our daily life. It has been said multiple times that our bodies are a temple.  Therefore, we need to take the time to exercise and build muscle so that our bodies are strong and equipped. I am a college swimmer so I am constantly working out.  During the school year, whether it be lifting, racing in the pool, or running, I am always working to get my body built into shape for competition.   This past ..read more

My Joy of Life

 Merry Christmas! Two weeks later I am back.  I have been slacking with my blogging because I have been a stir-crazy mess due to the Holidays.  Even though it has been a great week and a half with all the Christmas preparations, gift wrapping, giving, and cooking, I am glad to be able to settle down.  I'm happy that things can get back to normal. Throughout the past couple weeks, I have had many "coming to God moments" and realizations.  I actually have decided to start writing a children's book and gotten closer to a lot of my friends and family.  This children's ..read more

The Uncertainty of the Future

It has almost been a week since my last post!  I convinced myself that I was going to post every single day since I made the blog, but then life hit, and here I am a week since I wrote last.  But I have so much to catch up on! Within the last week, I have been back and forth to Pittsburgh, DC, Annapolis, Long Island, and New York City.  I pretty much never want to have to see a truck again in my life (driving alongside cars is fine with me- but it is the trucks that drive aggressively that I can't stand.). And, in the past week of driving around the East Coast of the United Sta ..read more

Add a Little Bit of God in Your Life

Words cannot describe how much of my time in the past 8 months I have spent in the silence of my own thoughts.  Before anybody reads that and thinks I am crazy, I think it was a good thing. It was a time to reflect on my life: where I am, where I want to be, and what I have to do to be at the place I want to be.   Last year around January/February time period, I was an overworked mess.  I was trying to balance swimming (which feels like a full time job) with grades and trying to be social and having a girlfriend.  It was hard for me to balance everything, and I wasn't bein ..read more
