If you don't love her, you won't love yourself.
If you disrespect her, you'll disrespect yourself.
If you wish her bad, you are wishing bad for yourself.
Don't hate your mother, since you are the seed of her blossom.
If you love her, you will love yourself.
If you respect her, you will respect yourself.
If you wish her good, she will make sure you are good and taken care of.
Love your mother, she'd give the world for you.
I love you Mom <3

Being a Good Person is Directly Proportional to Having a Strong Conscience
Today I realized that good people have a very strong conscience. I have noticed throughout my whole high school that irresponsible people don't give a damn about the outcomes in whatever situation you are stressed about. A difference of them and me is that I agonize with my conscience for weeks, even months, and I can surely say years; when I do something wrong.
Irresponsible people, and bad people seem to hide their guilt very well, if they have a conscience at all; but good people struggle with it every day until they do something good about it. And that's me.
The thing about me is that I can't get myself together to do the right thing, or what socially and ethically seems to be the right thing, and if I do it always comes in a very awkwardly way.
I despise my strong conscience, but at the same time I'm grateful for it because it let's me be humble and keep both of my feet on earth.
To all those bad people out there, there's no shame in hiding your guilt, once you uncover it you'll change for the better.

The Struggle
At the beginning of 2013 I was in FSU doing some courses in advance to being in USF, because I think FSU is easier due to the nationality of the professors (Panamanian) and the expectance of their students (who are also Panamanian). Hence, I was used to an easy life in FSU doing homework once or twice a week and studying for each test for 15 or 30 minutes.
Now here at USF, where it is also harder; I took 7 courses compared to the 4 and 3 courses I took at FSU. I haven't felt this pressured and stressed since high school. Plus the responsibility of going out to eat, doing laundry (big time consumer), cleaning my room, exercising, and participating in organizations and other activities that may enhance my curriculum, I'm really feeling The Struggle.
This last week I've heard "the struggle" like 10 times from 10 different people, it's not just me who is taking this transition a little overwhelming. The only difference is that those I've heard it from are taking 4 to 5 courses, while I'm here taking 7.
I didn't just took 7 courses because I wanted to challenge myself, but my scholarship requires me to have 30 credits per year (15 per semester) and since I'm taking a couple of courses that only give you 1 credit (the labs), and a mandatory course which gives you none, I'm stuck with 7 courses.
This weekend I got really stressed out due to the amount of school work I have for this week, but I took a moment and analyzed. I got to the conclusion that I was getting overly stressed, because I wanted to finish all my school work for the week in one weekend, which may be possible but a hell of a weekend.
Right now I'm just taking one day at a time, and counting the days until my Christmas break (88 days for December 13th).
"The Struggle" can be prevented with good time management and prioritizing.
