To the Dorky Girl Looking for Mr. Right

Be the fun-loving person God created you to be

To the Dorky Girl Looking for Mr. Right
Donnelle Johnson

Today’s society tells girls that they have to fit a specific mold to even dream about finding the right guy.

Well, if you are anything like me you are far from fitting into a stereotypical mold. You enjoy laughing hysterically and telling cheesy jokes. You never intend to make a fool of yourself, but that part just happens on its own.

It breaks my heart that we live in a world that tells girls they have to “stand still and look pretty.” To be fair (*insert thick British accent*), I don’t think that I am the type of girl that can stand still.. period. If a good song comes on, you better believe that I will be the first one to start dancing. It’s safe to say I’m not the type of person you want to hang out with if you’re easily embarrassed.

To the girls that have the same dorky personality that I do, don’t lose hope for finding “Mr. Right.”

I believe that God created us with a specific personality for a reason. If we were all meant to be boring and fit into a mold that society deems as normal, I believe that He would have created us that way. But, thankfully, He didn’t. Could you imagine a boring world with no laughter or sarcasm or pickup lines? Me either!

I’ve learned over the past couple of years that if a guy can’t appreciate my overly loud laugh and crazy sense of humor, then we aren’t meant to be together. I don’t want to sacrifice my fun-loving personality to be in a relationship that probably won’t end well anyway.

I’ve been in relationships before that just ended up suffocating me. I’ve been with guys that have tried to change me to fit the mold that they think I should fit, and I can’t wrap my mind around the fact that I began to let them change me. I started thinking that something was wrong with me, and that maybe I did need to change because if I ever wanted to find the right guy I needed to tone myself down a bit.

One thing that I quickly realized is that the guy I am meant to be with will accept me just as I am. He won’t try to change anything about me, and if I’m lucky enough he will be just as crazy as I am or even crazier. I hope that the girls out there who are like me can come to the same conclusion.

Trying to be someone other than who you truly are doesn’t sound like a very fulfilling life to me. So wait for the man that accepts you for who you are. Trust me, he is out there somewhere. You just need to embrace who you are and realize that God’s timing is perfect. He will place Mr. Right in your life when He knows you are ready for him. For now, live life singing songs at the top of your lungs and whatever you do.. don’t stop dancing.

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.
