To The Girl Who Hasn't Been In Love Yet

To The Girl Who Hasn't Been In Love Yet
Taylor Anne Pace

This letter is written to all the girls/women in the world that have not fallen in love yet in this particular point in time of their life.

I'm just going to start off by saying it's okay. That's right, it is okay. It is okay that you haven't fallen in love before. It is okay that you haven't found the "right person". You still have time.

Most people are nervous that if they haven't found their soul mate yet then they are going to be alone forever and that is obviously not true. You will find your one true love some time. You might meet him in your 20's or 30's. Or you might meet him after you divorced the guy that didn't respect you. You have no idea when you will meet him and that is okay. God is molding the man or woman; your significant other; just for you. He knows who to put you with. He knows who will appreciate you, who will love you like no other person has in the world. He molds the person who will be there for you when you are down, and to bring you up to the highest of highs when you need it. Have faith. Believe that He has a plan for you.

While you're waiting for God to throw that person at you head first, think of this time as a retreat. Sort of like a time to reflect. When you're single you are the most independent. Yes, you are still independent when you date, get engaged and marry someone, but when you are single you find your true self. You discover who you truly are.

You get to go out and go wherever you want to go. If your girlfriends want to go on a spontaneous trip to Michigan for the weekend, you're all for it.

You can travel. You can go do a back packing trip through Europe. Explore! Adventure! Experience everything that the world has to offer. Who knows maybe you can tell some of your stories of your travels on a first date.

You can watch couples. See what their struggles are, examine what it really looks like to be in a committed relationship. You will be shown that a relationship isn't a big fairy tale. You will struggle and fight, but the point is that you and your partner will get through those struggles and how you both come out of those situations will strengthen the love you have.

You can be picky. Learn this word: No. It is a very important word and you will need it in tricky situations or just any situations. Don't settle. Take time. Take time to find someone that treats you with respect. Find the person that loves you for who you truly are, no matter what.

Experience life. Take that trip. Realize that you don't need a man. Buy that house. Buy that dog. Just live.

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.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.

Top 10 Reasons My School Rocks!

Why I Chose a Small School Over a Big University.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
