"You Are Beautiful In Every Single Way"

The way you look at yourself is a huge deal, and struggling with your body image is a huge problem among girls of all ages, myself included.

Being a girl is hard. there's hormones, our many many emotions and of course, boys. We all long to look like those Victoria Secret models and be able to wear all the cute new styles and to just fit in with everyone else, but let me tell you a little secret... None of that matters, because whether you are a size 2 or 22, you are absolutely beautiful and someone will always love you for you.

There are many reasons girls struggle with the way they look, and it really shouldn't be that way.

To the girls with a weight problem

Size is just a number and you should never let that number define who you are! You are an amazingly beautiful young woman with so much potential. Please don't let the size of your jeans stop you from being happy.

To the girls with the eating disorder

Whether its anorexia or bulimia you are still beautiful and when you're ready for help someone will always be there. You don't have to be a size 0 just to be beautiful. Beauty comes from within and every single girl in this world is beautiful.

To the girls with the scars

Those scars aren't a sign of weakness, they are a sign of how strong you really are. I know how hard it is too live with the scars, Whether they are self harm or other incidents, I know. Scars are beautiful, they tell a story of a beautiful girl that has had a little trouble along the way. Don't be ashamed of your scars, wear those shorts and tank tops. Find a cute swimsuit to wear. Show off your body because as soon as you start feeling comfortable in your own skin you will start feeling better all around. The best decision I ever made was to stop hiding my scars. You are beautiful and I may not know you, but I'm here for you.

To the girls who thinks makeup will help

Yes it's fun to dress up sometimes and put on a whole face of makeup, but darling, you don't need any of that to make you beautiful. I'm not saying don't wear makeup, you can wear as much as you want, but I want you to know that you are absolutely beautiful with or without it. Just do what makes you happy.

To every girl out there

You are all very smart, beautiful, and amazing women and please don't let anyone ever tell you any different. Being a girl in this society can be a daily struggle, not just because of body images but because we are all fighting our own battles. There are probably times where it feels like no one could ever possibly care about you or your problems, but I promise you that everyone has someone that will always be there for them through their worst times.

Even though you probably don't know me I will always be there for you. So if you feel like you are all alone just remember that I'll be here no matter what the situation is.

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.
