For The Girls Who Think They’ll Never Find Love

I know way too many girls and young women, including myself, that think they will never find love. I mean we have it in our heads that someday, maybe not right now, but someday we are going to find love. Whether that be our prince charming or our princess. Girls and young women everywhere want to find love and if they don’t find it right away, then *dramatic sigh* “I’ll forever be alone. I’ll never find love.”

If you’re lucky, you will find love, but be patient. I know you’ve heard this a million times, but love comes when we least expect it and just waiting for it to happen is a waste of time. If you wait around just hoping for something to happen, you’ll have missed out on so many things in life. Maybe even the love of your life. So, don’t sit around waiting for your prince or princess to come and sweep you off your feet. They may be waiting too, and then where does that put you? Never meeting your love.

It may be harsh, but live your life. I would love to find love and meet the person I’m supposed to spend the rest of my life with, but I’m not going to meet them just waiting for it to happen. You could find love in class, at work, at the store, in a bar, at the movies, literally anywhere.

But, what if you don’t? Well that’s ok too. You keep on loving yourself and living your life to the fullest. Maybe your life plan just doesn’t include love and that’s ok because loving someone else doesn’t define who you are. Loving someone else can add to who you are and make you feel complete, but maybe you’re already complete. So complete with the love of yourself, your family, and friends that you don’t need a new addition.

In the end, you will find love or you won’t. Either way, your life is the way it is meant to be. With or without your prince or princess. So be patient and love life. Love yourself. Make memories and have adventures. You never know what could happen.

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?
