7 'Sex And The City' Quotes Every Person Looking For Love Needs To Hear

Some of the best advice I have picked up over the years has been displayed through the actions of Carrie, Miranda, Samantha and Charlotte. Women who came to the city looking for two things, Labels & Love.

1. “I’m looking for love. Real love. Ridiculous, inconvenient, consuming, can’t-live-without-each-other love.”

In reality, this is what we strive for, what we spend countless hours questioning ourselves to find this, to find love.

2. “I will not be the first one to speak. And if he never calls me again, I’ll always think of him fondly, as an asshole.”

In most cases, we are all going to kiss some frogs (“assholes”) until we find the one. Try not to fall in love with the assholes.

3. “The fact is, sometimes it’s really hard to walk in a single woman’s shoes. That’s why we need really special ones now and then to make the walk a little more fun.”


Being single isn't a punishment, it just means you need to fall in love with yourself first, have fun and walk in those fabulous shoes while you still can.

4. “Being single used to mean that nobody wanted you. Now it means you’re pretty sexy and you’re taking your time deciding how you want your life to be and who you want to spend it with.”

There's no need to fall in love with every person you meet, be picky, don't just give your heart away to someone who didn't deserve it.

5. “You and I are like that red wall. It’s a good idea in theory, but somehow it doesn’t quite work.”

You tried, you tried to fall in love, but like that red wall, there's always going to be something off about it. Don't give up on finding your love, you'll find them one day and they will be the perfect shade of red.

6. So maybe it won’t look like you thought it would in high school, but it’s important to remember that love is possible. Anything is possible.

Maybe you planned to fall in love with your high school sweetheart and live happily ever after, but if that doesn't happen, it's because the love wasn't the right love.


7. “The most exciting, challenging and significant relationship of all is the one you have with yourself. And if you find someone to love the you that you love, well, that’s just fabulous.”

Let's face it, we all dream of being loved, but finding someone who loves you only works if you love yourself first.

Let these words seep into your everyday life, learn to and let yourself love.

The 5 Painfully True Stages Of Camping Out At The Library

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.

I know every college student has daily thoughts throughout their day. Whether you're walking on campus or attending class, we always have thoughts running a mile a minute through our heads. We may be wondering why we even showed up to class because we'd rather be sleeping, or when the professor announces that we have a test and you have an immediate panic attack.

The Great Christmas Movie Debate

"A Christmas Story" is the star on top of the tree.

The Great Christmas Movie Debate
Mental Floss

One staple of the Christmas season is sitting around the television watching a Christmas movie with family and friends. But of the seemingly hundreds of movies, which one is the star on the tree? Some share stories of Santa to children ("Santa Claus Is Coming to Town"), others want to spread the Christmas joy to adults ("It's a Wonderful Life"), and a select few are made to get laughs ("Elf"). All good movies, but merely ornaments on the Christmas tree of the best movies. What tops the tree is a movie that bridges the gap between these three movies, and makes it a great watch for anyone who chooses to watch it. Enter the timeless Christmas classic, "A Christmas Story." Created in 1983, this movie holds the tradition of capturing both young and old eyes for 24 straight hours on its Christmas Day marathon. It gets the most coverage out of all holiday movies, but the sheer amount of times it's on television does not make it the greatest. Why is it,
then? A Christmas Story does not try to tell the tale of a Christmas miracle or use Christmas magic to move the story. What it does do though is tell the real story of Christmas. It is relatable and brings out the unmatched excitement of children on Christmas in everyone who watches. Every one becomes a child again when they watch "A Christmas Story."
