11 Things Every Young Girl Needs To Know

Everyone goes through a tough time now and then. So, in order to make those tough times a little more bearable, these sayings/quotes are guaranteed to make it just a bit better. I hope they help you as much as they have helped me.

1. Others can only give you words and things; only you can give yourself feelings.

Some of these feelings include being truly healthy, confidence, happiness, etc.

2. The only time a friend should make you cry is because you're so overwhelmed with how greatly they appreciate you.

Love your best friends like they are your family because sometimes they will be the only ones there for you.

3. Not every friendship with a boy is going to turn out romantic. It's okay to have platonic relationships.

It's okay to have guy friends!

4. You are growing and changing every second. You are not the same person you were five minutes ago. Embrace the growth and change the world.

Continue to grow and change into the best version of yourself.

5. It's okay to eliminate toxic things and toxic people. You are too important to hold onto things that don't help you improve.

Try to forgive and forget.

6. Never, never leave a friend for a stupid boy who won't remember your name in three months.

"Sisters before misters"

7. Just because you hate them, doesn't mean that everyone else will, too.

Don't listen to other people's opinion about someone, make your own judgment.

8. Don't get mad at someone for not understanding how you feel when you won't tell them how you feel.

Learn to express your feelings and be honest with yourself and others.

9. You can't control what people will say to you, but you can control how you react to them.

Try to not overreact to situations that won't matter in the long run.

10. You are not your struggles. You are not your emotional breakdowns. You are not your past.

Push forward and see what the future holds.

11. Always keep your head up high. No matter how bad your hair looks. No matter if you're wearing dirty sweatpants. Hold your head up as if you are the hottest person in town. Because you are.

Everything gets better.

All of these things are so true and something I personally believe every girl should know and live by. By knowing these quotes, you should be able to be the best, beautiful and confident version of yourself.

Taylor Swift in orange dress playing a moss-covered piano on stage with bright lights.

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?
