15 Things I Think While Looking for the One

Just sit back, eat ice-cream, and laugh.

15 Things I Think While Looking for the One

Growing up as a female, I was told stories of fairy tales and true love. I often day dreamed about what my wedding would be like-where, who will be there, what my dress would look like. Now, entering my fourth year of college I still day dream of it all, as I imagine many do. Seeing so many people around my age on social media sharing photos of their adventures with their significant others, engagement photos, and baby announcements sometimes make me think harder of "why not me?" I realized there are 15 questions that go through my head:

1. Do I love food too much?

2. Do I make too many jokes?

3. Are my clothes too baggy (or rather, comfy)?

4. Do I not dress up enough?

5. Or maybe it’s that I can’t throw a baseball.

6. Am I not smart enough since I don’t understand fantasy football?

7. Na, it's me constantly sharing cute cat videos.

8. Do I have too many guy friends?

9. Is it me knowing more about guns than they do?

10. Or maybe me loving to work on cars and watch them race?

11. Maybe they don’t like me beating them at video games.

12. Is it because I carry a list of anime on my phone at all times?

13. Maybe I sing too much in the car.

14. Is it because I don’t do the dishes enough?

15. Oh, I got it, I know what it is, I have too many cats.

Truth is, there are no reasons except not meeting true love. So keep laughing, being who you are, and day dream of love. The day will come.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
