Why You Should Date the Southern Mess
Sierra Chapman

1. She can hang with the boys.

There's nothing like having your girl around -- I totally get that, especially when you're crazy about her. However, having her around the guys at times can be a little discomforting to your "crew. " She's the kind that your friends don't mind having around because when she opens her mouth, she doesn't sound like another female. Not everything is "yucky," and you can catch her saying, "Hey boys watch this."

2. She's the best fishing partner.

Ain't nothing better than sitting on a river with a cold one in one hand and seeing your girl with a zebco in hers. She ain't around to bait her own hook. Heaven forbid you take the fish off the hook for her because you can bet she can do that herself.

3. She's always down for whatever.

She's the wild ride. She's sliding on in, shotgun ready to see where the road takes her. She's always ready to get into whatever you are, and she wouldn't trade a night of riding and singing along to every country song for a night downtown with her girlfriends.

4. She's your right-hand man.

She's the kind that you can find elbow deep in an ole' box Chevy discussing how you need a 7/16ths wrench instead of a 3/8ths. She's there cheering on the SEC with you every Saturday in the South!

5. With her there is less drama

She isn't worried about what this person and that person are doing on social media. Partly because she is more worried about what fish is nibbling at the end of her hook. At the end of the day, she's only worried about what makes her happy and what makes you happy. Life just seems to be simpler with a Southern girl at your side.

6. Your momma really loves her

She has that Southern Hospitality that hardly exists nowadays. She's respectful in all the right ways. She cares about you and what truly happens to your future or the future that possibly includes her in it. She's the kind you bring home to mamma, and next thing you know, she and your mamma are in the kitchen cooking fried chicken with a pan of fresh corn bread in the oven. She respects the woman who raised you and isn't afraid to love her just the same.

7. She knows how to treat you

She can bring out your wilder side, but she also knows how to love you. She knows that you need all the love and support you can get after a long day. She is always there to vent to, and you know she will never be biased about anything. She will always give her honest opinion even when you are being a dumb ole' donkey. She can sass you around long enough to make you see she is only wanting the best for you.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

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.
