Hey All,
My name is Alisa and I am a college student with an urge to write.
This blog is an outlet for me.
Some words that inspire me are by Jordan Lee Dooley:
“But I’ve found that if you’re willing to try, you can, in fact, use your passions into something that can practically provide. The two are not mutually exclusive.
Sis, they weren’t put in you on accident — they need to be put into action.
You’ve just gotta take a step or faith, have some grit, and sister you’ve gotta be willing to go there…
To put yourself out there when you worry what your friends will think before it’s all figured out & when you’re afraid to be seen starting small.
But here’s the thing. You’re gonna have to double time. You’re going to have to be willing to go the extra mile, to put the work in where you can. I don’t care if your passion is medicine and you need to squeeze in extra volunteer hours to get into med school or if you want to
You’re not going to find out all that life has for you if you skimp out on it. So go for it. Apply to that top notch med school you believe you can’t get into. Shadow that event planner on Tuesday evenings. Ask your friends to help you raise money for that cause so close to your heart.
Just don’t avoid it any longer. Look yourself in the mirror and say these words til you believe them: You’re not stuck, sis. Except for maybe in your own head. You’ll never know until you try 🖤”
