War


Hi, thanks for visiting my blog again. This week I will be speaking to about the emotional wars that a student will face at the end of their fourth year and the beginning of college life. This stage is critical because it’s where decisions take a great impact for several years.

During my high school years of high school I had made  the decision to study in the health field. . Thanks to a lecture given at school and my initiative I was able to participate in a program in the Central Caribbean University about careers in health. To contact them got a pass for me and several of my fellow students. These activities were very rewarding and I made the most of the activities.  I got another contact and it opened the doors for me in the Academy of Medical Directors of Puerto Rico.

These decisions were not easy to make and came with many implications. Every email, call to it was with fear because I did not know what would be there response.  Answer  in which today I have no regrets. Thanks to these decisions today I am science student.

Not everything was for the best; this new era brought many changes in my life. At this stage where the war of inner emotions begins looking for who you really are. Thank God during this difficult time which some choose to surrender, I had the support of my parents and sisters at all times. I also received   counseling and psychology services at the university where I study which helped me find my inner self and helped me adjust to university life.

I hope this experience will help other people. I want them to know that in life you need support and help so they can understand what you are going through. Life is just one and there are always emotional wars but you are the one that has the decision in your hands to see who wins.

Happiness


 

 
As I mentioned before I will be expressing my experiences through weekly post with different themes, which I hope will help those people who have not yet reached this stage of their lives, to serve them as examples and experience. This week I will talk about my happiness in high school and its impact in university. Happiness, what is happiness? Perhaps for many people happiness is something mainly material such as money and luxuries, but for others like me happiness can be represented in the act of helping others, it makes me feel good, be helpful no matter who. For me happiness does not come because of the material that you have or want, but you need to live and do well. Happiness comes to me, when I am a leader, I also help in organizing events for people with simple gestures of cordiality, make others feel good. A good morning or a smile to cause me instant happiness to be able to perceive the change in the faces of others.

Sometimes I actually think what I do is not happiness but it is an escape for not being in my home and to face family conflicts. Moreover happiness from my perspective as I had already mentioned is the gesture of doing well to others, to cause you got to be happy to others. The happiness I found during my school years, in this case higher, taking up all my free time in different groups as it was in the school newspaper, presentations of plays also finding solutions to certain issues on the School Board and convey joy through music, etc. In performing these activities I forget all my problems and only focus the moment for me to realize what I do correctly. It's like being stopped to be someone else, that person you have unconditionally. By doing what I love I feel happy, happy, motivated, and that's what makes me want to move forward. An inexplicable feeling.

            Happiness as I defined it made me want to be part of something. I am inspired to belong to the school newspaper where we reported important events that happened at school. Enter the theater group where I did work behind racks and it was not until my senior year I discovered that I had charisma in action which caused me even more happiness. In my years as a student I entered the municipal school band bringing joy during each concert and presentation. See the astonishment of the people to hear the songs, make them remember and relive moments of their lives and at the same time they pay you up and applause we give away is priceless. Community service in my community with the youth was not easy, but rewarding. With them I could perform various activities in which they are glad the lives of many people in the community.

Looking from another point of view the fact of using these and other activities as an escape route to clear my mind no doubt I was served upon entering college and to continue doing what I like. My experience in the school band opened doors to ask the college band, which conducted semiannually concert overflowing with joy to people. Serve as an alliance between the students, the board and management of the institution where I study. Performing such an act, personally makes me feel happy because I think I'm helping my other fellow students. In addition there is always opportunity to perform community service giving the opportunity to anyone who wishes to make such a gesture of kindness possible.
 
Who I mean after all, that in life there is time for everything. It is important to enjoy every step to the maximum, but with prudence and balance, take advantage of every opportunity you thought to grow as an individual personally and commonly. My experience was a rewarding but dry. Dry by lack of solid friendships, because the simple fact that everyone knows who you are and respect does not mean at all that you are friends. Perhaps leave with many questions and that is why I invite you to continue reading my post every week hoping to clarify any doubts you may have.
