Five Reasons Owning A Pair Of Birkenstocks Is Better Than Having A Boyfriend

I did not know that my life would be changed forever in March upon my purchase of a Jesus-esque-two strap-suede and leather-sandal. The Godsend, that is also named Birkenstocks, have been touching the souls and soles of women around the world for ages. I have been told love is a strong word, but no other word can express the sensation of owning this heavenly sandal.

Going through relationships with the opposite sex can be hard, impossible really. When in doubt, it is time to go to the one thing that is never a let down, these delightful sandals. With this being said, Birkenstocks are the best companion you can have going through life and here are some reasons why.


1. Your Birkenstocks are always up for an adventure.
Whether it's walking around campus or exploring a new city, your Birkenstocks are molded to your feet and ready to stroll through life with you. These granola sandals are ready to pound the pavement and take the world by storm.


2. They Last Forever
The sad and realistic gamble you take upon getting into a relationship with the opposite sex, is that sometimes the harshness of a breakup is a real possibility. But not with Birkenstocks, these sandals are meant to last. You are guaranteed years upon the investment of these.


3. They comfort you.
Sometimes boys just do not understand. There are things they will never get, but your Birkenstocks know exactly how to make your feet feel their absolute best, which translates to the rest of your spiritual and mental well-being. Let's face it, happy feet equals happy you.


4. There are a variety of them.
Who needs arm candy, when you can have feet candy? Birks come in a variety of colors, strap styles and materials. You may not be able to customize a perfect boyfriend, but you can sure customize your perfect pair of Birks according to your zesty personality or chill attitude. These miracle sandals look good with socks, without socks, in warm weather, and cold weather. Forty degrees and windy? No problem, pair these guys with a pair of wool socks, slide foot in, repeat.


5. Everybody wants them.
The envy of even the most distinguished of shoe connoisseurs, these simple sandals are the perfect shoes for anyone. Owning a pair of Birkenstocks is kind of like an episode of The Bachelor, only everyone gets a rose. Upon your purchase of these shoes, you are sure to get a fair amount of compliments and others who are itching to get a pair of their own. Be prepared to know your local Birkenstock distributor, so you can send these gals on their way to buying a little bit of happiness. I don't know about you, but I don't need a glass slipper, all I need is a pair of Birkenstocks to call my own.


So really, who needs a boyfriend, when you can have Birkenstocks? You are sure to find your sandal sole mate.

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.
