Single Girl Anthem

I'm right there too.

Single Girl Anthem
Molly Woolworth

Alright guys, this is going to be a little different. I'm writing this whole thing as a mostly joke. I mean the humor comes in the truth. I wanted to write this as the "Single Girl Anthem" because as a single girl, it's pretty true. The effort is there, but not always the most successful of methods is employed. And I wear this outfit a lot. I mean a lot. This is basically my morning routine. Here's a peak into the secret world of Molly. It's not a very exciting world.

Should I wear make-up today? Who am I kidding? I don't have anyone to impress. But wait. Yes I do. Do I want to get up at 6:40 before my eight o'clock to wear make-up though? Is it really worth it? Molly, our future husband could be in that eight o'clock class. Slow down, we're a freshman. But for how long? A year. Get back to the task. I guess some foundation wouldn't be that bad...

What should I wear today? I can see my leggings enticing me from the corner... No. I can't. I've worn leggings too many times this week. Someone is going to take notice. Okay, okay. I'll wear jeans. But which shirt? Which shirt says "I'm cute and wife material."? Molly, why would a shirt need to say I'm wife material? Because I am! Not really, my dorm is a mess. Besides, I'm here to get my education. That comes first. I know, but I just like the option to be open. It's not open. It's never been open. Maybe I should wear a dress. Maybe I should wear eyeliner. Great point. Flannel it is.

Okay, okay. Hair. I can do my hair. It's short, there's not that much to do. Oh, but I took my shower last night. I have a fro. A straight, ridiculous fro. Okay, I should do something. Do bobby pins work? And.... I look like an alien. Alright. That's not going to work. There's always a ponytail. I love my baby ponytail. It's so cute and little. That works.

Shoes... Shoesshoesshoes.... Okay. If I wear my red converse, I don't have to tie them, but my navy ones are more toned down. They match everything better. Oh, but what if it's hot today? And socks don't work well with these pants... Alright, I guess I should just go with Chacos. I mean, they literally go with everything. Not to mention, I just painted my toenails. Who am I kidding? I was always going to wear my Chacos. They're my favorite.

Alright let's do a quick run down of my outfit. Let's see... I have my hair in that half-ponytail. It doesn't look that well put together, but I guess it's more about the use than the look. I put foundation on! I don't look like I didn't go to bed last night because of homework at well past midnight. I have on one of my favorite and most comfy flannels. I love this flannel. And look! Denim jeans instead of leggings! That's something! Plus my Chacos! I love my Cha- Wait a second. Didn't I just wear something like this... Yep. There's my dirty flannel. In front of the closet. It didn't even make it to the bed where I store my pajamas. I wore something almost exactly like this yesterday. Same thing as usual. A flannel, jeans, and Chacos. My hair is in this ponytail and almost no makeup on. My future husband has a lot to deal with.

He's gonna love me.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
