Work vs. Happiness?
I don't know if it's just me, but in my opinion work and happiness just do not seem to go together anymore! The struggle of working at a job you hate but simply cannot afford to leave is REAL!!
Sam's BabblePublished 6 years ago in JournalDeclaring a Minor Not Similar to Your Major
First off, it is important to note that a lot of colleges and universities will dictate that you have a minor relevant to your choice of a major. In fact, some colleges and universities will not let you enroll or participate in classes or any other part of the college experience if you do not do this.
Noel WillettPublished 6 years ago in EducationHow to Write a Better Paper
Are you a procrastinator or a planner? Do you start writing as soon as you get a paper prompt or are you ten minutes late to class because you were grabbing your paper off of the printer in the computer lab? Professors and teachers always suggest that students get an early start on assigned papers. While this does work for some people (I know a few), it doesn't work for me. For me, it seems that the longer I work on an assigned prompt, the worse my paper gets, becoming disjointed and unclear. Over time I have discovered a five step process that helps me to compose my essays in record time, and while writing ability is the ultimate determinant of your grade, following these steps will help to streamline your writing process. You will find that you complete your essays faster, they are more coherent, and you are likely to see a jump in your average grade. After implementing this process, my average assignment grades went from a B average to A's. It doesn't matter if you are a procrastinator or a planner, just follow the steps.

I hated high school. Not in the cliché, "Oh my gosh, I hate school." But I truly did. All my friends would get dressed up, go to pep rallies, talk about the latest parties; none of it interested me, never did. Yet, freshman and sophomore year, boy, did I pretend that I loved it all. I would wear all black to our football games to match the theme, dressed up for homecoming, gauzed over how "cool" the seniors were; but deep down, I did not give a crap.

I am attending Mercyhurst University in Erie, Pennsylvania. It’s a beautiful campus that’s nice and up to date. However, it also keeps a nice, authentic historical side, especially the beautiful chapel with stained glass windows, with an interior of majestically painted biblical setting on the ceilings. My reason for choosing Mercyhurst was due to the fact it had a music therapy program in which not a lot of colleges have. Also, I liked the small population, which had a nice sense of community. I felt very welcomed.
