It's the first week back to school, and as expected, the Strom Thurmond Fitness and Wellness Center (GYM) is CRAWLING with people ready to start their New Year's Resolutions. Students (it seems like it's usually girls) are flocking to USC's fitness Mecca to attain their perfect bodies that reside within their current flabby physique. Upon first hearing complaints about how many people had swarmed the Strom, I became enraged. In a way, I reasoned that these people weren't really serious about getting in shape, and that they'd be gone by the end of the week. I was angry they'd be there taking up my space, faking the drive it takes to maintain a healthy body. But after thinking about it, I hope those that do decide to go and workout and get in shape as their New Year's Resolution do hold themselves to it, and stay. It's better for everyone if more people decide to get in shape and actually stick to that decision. I wish all those setting out on their Resolutions success. I know I'll need a bit of good luck to carry out mine, but so far it's going well.
Speaking of things, it's the first week back to school, and I'm excited not only about the school year, but the year in general. It's bizarre how my attitude towards some things has changed in the month away from Carolina. So many things can change in just a short while, and once again, I believe good things happen to good people, so as long as I try to be good, I think good things will continue to happen to me.
I'd urge you to take the new start to the semester to look at yourself and see if you're really doing everything you can to get all that you want out of life.
Briefly-
1. If you want something bad enough, you'll work for it. That's how you earn things.
2. Nothing worth having ever came easy. If it did, then everyone would have it.
3. You never know who's going to come into your life at any given moment. It's up to you if you recognize the importance of that person or not, and act on it.
