It's sometimes hard for this generation to really truly find their person (as "Grey's Anatomy" would put it). I still have yet to find my person but maybe he's already reading this and that's okay. Someday I am going to look back at this article and remember all of the crazy memories that come to mind when writing this. But that to me is fine, I want to be able to look back on this and to make an impact.

I want college girls to know that its okay for them to wait on their happily ever after. As cheesy as it may sound, good things come to those who wait.

I wholeheartedly believe this is true for all of us girls despite what we really think will happen in our lives. I think that there's no way to tell if the guy that we are just friends with now will be our happily ever after. Heck, there's no way to tell if the guy we haven't even met yet will be our happily ever after.

This time in our lives in college is a time for growing and learning about ourselves. Yes, it would be nice to have someone to grow, learn, and love during this time.

But it may not happen right now and that's okay. If your prince charming does happen to meet you during your time in college, there is nothing wrong with that either. It's also easy to forget that we are not going to be on the same happily ever after pace as each other.

Love just has a way of making its way into our lives at different times, and we have to be willing to let it in when its right.

So, when you leave this article, remember this quote to live by:

"You deserve love and you'll get it"

It is no secret that many American traditions have changed over time. As we grow older we change in so many ways that it only makes sense that we also change the way we celebrate special occasions. Of course when it comes to the holidays there are some family traditions that many of us still excitedly look forward to, whether it is eating your favorite dish or seeing favorite cousin. However, we all know that the holidays have overall changed a little from what they used to be.

I'll never forget the day that someone told me these words: "Madison, I think you're a good friend to everyone but yourself." I stood there completely in awe of that statement. Before that day, I never really thought about being a friend to myself, and at the time, I didn't really know what it meant. Now, I realize that you can't fully be there for other people unless you're there for yourself, too. You can't show up for others until you're willing to show up for yourself.

Here are five things everyone should learn in order to be a better friend to themselves. These steps are hard, but they're so worth it.
