Fantasy or Reality?

Most teenagers have a fantasy life that they have created for themselves. Who they're going to marry? How many kids they are going to have? What college they will attend? But many of those are not realistic. Majority of the time we are way off. We imagine ourselves marrying some celebrity that doesn't even know that we exist. But that's okay, because it's your fantasy, it's the life you would have if you were in charge of your own destiny.But then comes the unwanted truth of reality kicks in. Let's be honest. Those dreams will probably never come true.WHY? Because that's just the way that life works. I'm not saying that one of you won't end up marrying Austin Mahone or Ariana Grande, all I'm saying is that chances of that happening are 1 in a Million.

 I mean come on. If I had the choice to make up my own life. I would be rich, famous, and dating an amazing  guy. Reality. Normal teenager, normal teenager friends, and single. But, I'm learning to be okay with that. Being single is okay. That just means that you  have more time focus on yourself. Yeah, Yeah, Boring is probably what most of you are thinking. But if you think about it, it's true. While you are single, you get to decide what you want in a relationship and what you will not accept in a relationship. So that way, if the WRONG guy comes along, you will know. 

So, which is better... Fantasy or Reality? For me, I chose reality. Even though, it's not always what I want, it's what I need. So even when things aren't always going my way, I know that in the end, everything will be fine. 

Let me know what you guys would choose? Fantasy or Reality?

Today affects Tomorrow

Everyone compares them selves to someone or something at one point in their life. Whether it was when you were 5 and the kid next to you had the 64 pack crayons, or in 6th grade with the girl two rows down had the better birthday party, or in middle school and high school when most teenagers are out partying and having relationships and your just like "I'm the social outcast". Let me tell you, NONE OF THAT MATTERS!  Because in 10 years, it won't matter who had better crayons or the better party, or most relationships. What is going to matter is where you are in life. Did you go to college? Did you graduate? What are you doing with your degree? Because in all honesty you can have a college degree and just sit at home and do nothing. You may have "swag" today and nothing tomorrow. Don't follow the crowd and waste your high school years. Do well. Get good grades. Join sports and clubs. Make friends everywhere. I'd rather be remembered for being a great friend, than being a great party buddy. Be smart. Make wise decisions. No matter what you choose to do though, the consequences will follow you for the rest of your life. Be wise and go to college and work, you won't have to worry about not being able to support yourself. Blow off school, work at McDonald's for the rest of your life.... Your choice. But for me, I choose school.

Let me know what you guys want to major in for college.
