A Single Girl's Valentine's Day

It's a hard day.

A Single Girl's Valentine's Day

One day of the year, the single people in this world are the minorities. We don't get the romantic dates, the roses, or the chocolate. And if we do, it's from our parents.

I have to say, single is my middle name. No boyfriend, no problem. And whenever that catchy Beyonce song comes on during a night out, you know I'm the first one to start dancing.

I'm all "strong, independent girl who doesn't need a guy to complete her" until this sad, sad day of the year. For those who don't know, or for those who can fully relate, here is what a single girl's Valentine's Day is like.

Leading up to Valentine's Day, you try your hardest to promote your very obvious relationship status.

But, you realize no one is actually interested.

And you're just a little bitter.

So, you have to accept that you're alone for yet another Valentine's Day.

"It's okay," you tell yourself. "Next year will be my year!"

The dreaded day finally arrives.

But you (and your other single friends) claim that you'll actually embrace your singledom this year.

Single girls RULE! Yeah!

But that really means doing this.

Isn't dark chocolate supposed to be good for you?

And this.

I heard wine is too?

After you pull it together, you decide to go out in public. Big mistake.

They're literally everywhere. Really not a fan of PDA.

You run into your friend and her boyfriend, and she asks how you're doing on this lovely Valentine's Day.

She just doesn't get it.

After a long day of self-pity, you come to a realization.

Honey Boo Boo knows what's up. Life is hard enough, why throw one of those creatures from the male species into the mix?

Single girls actually rock, and if you are one, be proud.

Girl power always.

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.
