I Am Single And I'm Ok With That

Everybody always asks me why i don't have a boyfriend and I usually give the same general answer; I'm not ready. I am single by choice. I am happy with my life now and I don't feel that I am ready to make a change. I keep myself busy and I enjoy my freedom.

In today's world it feels like everyone feels the need to rush into relationships and never takes time for themselves. I will admit I used to think this way. I always though I needed to be in a relationship to be happy with myself, but I learned something. I actually don't. Being single has been a journey for me and I have learned many things.

I do not want to feel that I need somebody because i want to feel whole on my own. I want to be with someone purely because they enhance my life more rather than feeling like I cannot exist without them. I want to be with someone that brings out the best qualities in me and pushes me to be a better me. I am willing to wait to meet the right person because I am not settling in life anymore. So, In the meantime fine I have faith that my time will come.

I am working on myself still, and I have to put me first. I am young and I want to have fun and find someone who will make every day an adventure. I know my guy is out there somewhere and someday our paths will cross. However, for now I will work to better myself.

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
