It's not just a boob holder.

The 5 Symbols of a Bra

Bras are a large part of a woman's life. They determine how annoying or sexy their day will be.These boulder holders were originally created to "support the breasts". In other words, they make running and jumping not so painful, and they make the girls look a little better underneath your clothes. So why do we tend to believe they are so awful? Basically, bras are a symbol of our days, feminism, confidence, laziness and commitment.

The symbol of the day.

As the day begins, the bra gets put on. Both of these things can be equally as awful. If the day involves long meetings and work tasks, the uncomfortable bra you're wearing is just as agonizing. During the work week, the end of the day is the most relaxing time. When we take our bras off, it is representing the symbol of relief, the symbol of "I'm not doing anything productive for the rest of the night so don't bother me". No matter what happens, you are not putting that thing back on. It's almost as if the bra you were wearing all day wasn't just holding your boobs, but everything you hated about the entire day.


The symbol of confidence.

On the other hand, a nice, sexy bra could become the outlet for confidence. Why do you think Victoria's Secret makes millions off of their lingerie? They make bras with unnecessary frills, jewels, bows and lace, but we love that shit. Even if no one can see our bra, knowing that we look and feel good under our clothes despite the bad hair day or lack of makeup can make a world of difference in our attitude.


The symbol of feminism.

In opposition to the wearing of bras, there are gals willing to let them loose all day, disregarding what any man may think. After all, the whole idea of a bra being a supportive article of clothing has been lost over time, considering they are being designed to create a woman's "ideal body". If they were strictly made for bearing breasts, the 1950s "bullet bra" would have never been created. So, if you have the courage to let them hang free, YOU GO GIRL.


Symbol of our laziness.

I'm sure I'm not the only one to wear the same bra a day or two in a row. Unlike our undies, some of us strongly believe that bras just don't get dirty...even though they sit under our pits and over the boob sweat all day. Bras are also a symbol of how often we take our bras off at night to find the potato chips we never bothered to dig out during lunch.


A symbol of commitment.

We never give up what we love. No matter how ripped, stained or small our bras become, we cannot just simply toss them out. They have been with us through the best and worst of times, never letting us down (literally).

Bras,

We hate you. But we also love you.

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.
