This One's For The Girls

Take a hike, ride a train, love yourself.

This One's For The Girls

No matter where you are in your life right now, it will get better, then worse, then better again. Your life right now is no indication of what your future will look like, and I hope you understand that. I hope you remember that Rome wasn't built in a day, and that Disney World started as a mouse from man with a dream. When you start to get where you're going I hope you remember who you are and where you came from. No one is too good to go home to mamas for dinner.

I hope you figure yourself out before you expect a man to figure you out. How is a man supposed to know who you are if you don't even know? There are two types of men that will come into your life. The first will help you to find yourself, I hope you are careful to not let him form you to who he wants you to be. The second will come in after you know what you want out of life. A few things may change, but you will be loved for you and nothing else will matter.

I hope you take a hike every once in awhile, even when the weather may not be ideal. If you wait for the weather to be perfect, you definitely will never get anything done. Being one with nature is a feeling unlike any other. I hope you never wait for anything, good things do not come to those who wait.

I hope you find your calling, even if doesn't find you until you are well into your 50's. You never know where life will take you.

Keeping up with the Jones's is completely overrated. Please do not be stupid with your money, be proud of what you have and who you have.

I hope you never become the type of person to be on a boat and not realize how big the world actually is. I am constantly amazed by how enormous Lake Erie is, I know that if I lose sight of that, I need to rethink myself.

My biggest hope is that you never lose your sense of adventure. Wanderlust is a feeling that should never be lost. It doesn't matter where all you have been, there is always going to be a new place to visit, a new train to ride, or a new section of the ocean to explore.

Just remember that life is ever changing, the world never stops moving, and that men do not define you. Love Everyone and stay classy.

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.
