It Gets Better

        My results got released yesterday and I am ever thankful to be where I am in life today. Today I am a happier and stronger person than I was 3 years ago. I'm in a better place now and I'm extremely grateful. It's taken a lot of effort and a lot of ups and downs to get to where I am today.

       To anyone who feels like they're just not doing that great in life at all, believe me, life get's better. Life is hard, it's not designed to be easy but that's the beauty of life. You'll never get to enjoy the great moments in life if you've never been down before. So believe me when I tell you that life gets better. It won't get better in a day but it will get better eventually so hold on. Lot's of people are advocates of the term "It Gets Better" and they're right it does. 

        It's not easy. It takes consistent effort and strength to push yourself to be better. Some things will never change and sometimes the only way for things to get better is for you to change. You will never be in a better position in life if you keep hoping for things to change. They change because you change. I can guarantee you that it's hard and my goodness is it hard. There'll be times when you get kicked even when you're on the ground trying to pick up pieces of yourself. Sometimes you'll find that you're alone and that no one in the world would be able to really help you with your problems but that's okay. 

        The one thing that life has taught me is to find strength within myself and that's a lesson you'll have to teach yourself. It's hard but it's worth it because at the end of the day you are all you've got. Your family and friends may be there for you to help you but it's not their place to teach you how to be strong, it's yours. I can't tell you how to be strong because it's a lesson that only you can teach yourself but I can tell you that if all else fails never stop believing in yourself. You are all you've got and most times that's more than enough. You are strong and you are beautiful and if you do right by yourself and by others you will be fine.

     As usual, I hope you have a wonderful day and thank you for reading :)

Sincerely,
Siemone

Exam Stress and Facial Masks

     Aside from dealing with the stress of wanting to do well in exams. I've been pretty alright. It's a Friday night and while most students are partying their night away, I'm sitting at my desk with a sheet mask on my face. Fun fun. My books are right beside me and I'm doing everything in my power to not close them and head to bed. It's been one hell of a week and I'm still wondering where time went.      Anyway I did a little shopping today and got a whole lot worth of stuff for the money I spent. I swear there's something extremely satisfying about getting more for what you paid for.. Mainly, a nice handkerchief, 8 sheet masks, and a 3 little samples of facial products. I know I know, it's not a whole whole lot but what can you expect when you pay less than 50 bucks on masks? I'm on a student budget here so sue me.     If you ever want to invest in affordable facial masks that are made from natural ingredients then I'd highly suggest you

How to brighten up your day

     Most of you may know, my moods haven't been that great lately. I blame stress and PMS (pre, present and post). Honestly, feeling sucky is a horrible feeling. It gets worse with every passing day and nothing seemed to be cheering me up. I'd get super grumpy then I'd get moody then I'd get stressed and then all that I've been feeling accumulates into this big ball of negativity which, lemme tell you, makes you feel more like crap than you already do. But today, I decided to do something that would ease my mind a little bit and I feel a whole lot better now than I did a few hours ago. So I'm gonna share some tips on how to make yourself feel better/ brighten up your day.      Now with most people who're under lots of stress, it's easy for us to neglect pampering ourselves because "there's just not enough time". Me personally, I feel really guilty if I take time away from studying to do other things.  I typically use these few tips to

Things to do during a break

     Exams are over so here come endless (5 Weeks)  days of sleeping late and waking up late. Days of no homework and studying and they'll most probably be the most wonderful days of my life. Now the above situation is what I'd generally tell myself every time I'm on a break but I'd usually end up rotting away in my room. A potato's gotta do what a potato's gotta do, even if that means being part potato and pig.  This time though, I'm gonna use these few weeks to really achieve some goals before I start a new semester. So here a few things I'm gonna do during my holiday that you can try with me. 1. Get Fit      This is the number 1 thing that everyone tells themselves that they'll do during the holiday but never happens; myself included. Here's the thing, the trick to getting fit is to be specific with your goals. I typically don't measure how fit I am based on the amount of weight I've lost. Usually, I set a specific routine to comp
