Ah, it's the most wonderful time of the year. The weather is cooler, the finals are upon us, and you have to reunite with your family. While going home for the holidays is a great time, especially since you've totally gained 10 pounds eating Chick-fil-a four times a week this semester and could use someone to force a vegetable or two on your plate, but this also means you're going to be bombarded with questions you probably don't have the answer to.

And even though everyone has your best intentions at heart, you're going to have to force a smile or two to get through the interrogation portion of the holidays. Luckily, you were prepared this year and you have plenty of time to prep your answers for the neverending change of life questions upon you this holiday season.

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.
