If You Find A Girl Like This— Hold Onto Her Tight

We don't come around often.

It can be so difficult to find someone you completely click with nowadays, so once you find someone that lights up your world, hold onto them.

With most girls it's either one way or the other - are you a tomboy or more of a diva?

But, what happens when you come across that rare breed when you meet a girl who knows her sports better than most men while having a full face of makeup on? I myself am one of those girls, having gone to makeup school in the city while working as a bridal consultant who wears dresses all day every day. As soon as I leave my job, the cowgirl boots come on and I'm out in the country for the rest of the day.

If you meet a girl who is the perfect mix of being a complete girly-girl and a tomboy, grab onto her tight and don't let go - we're a hot commodity.

If you find a girl who is willing to look past any imperfections or flaws you might have, hold onto her. Those girls don't come around often. Find the girl who is so excited for you to meet her family, and is proud that you are hers. Find the girl who always rearranges her schedule to be at any family gathering you ask her to come to. Find the girl who puts up with your awful fake accents when you're trying to be funny. Find the girl who laughs at your jokes, even if they're the worst!! Find the girl who roots for all of your favorite teams, even if they aren't hers. Find the girl who would drive two hours just to spend thirty minutes with you.

Find the girl who gets along with your family, the one who can banter right back with your sarcastic brother and go out for girl's days with your sister.

Hold onto the girl who drives a truck with a six-inch lift in high heels. Hold onto the girl who isn't afraid to ruin her set of gel nails getting down and dirty. Hold onto the girl that would drop anything to help someone out when they need her. Hold onto the girl who is reliable. Hold onto the girl who can get you through your roughest days.

Hold onto the girl that is home to you. Hold onto the girl that won't let you down.

A lot of the time, we, unfortunately, don't realize what we have until it's gone. So, make sure you take that time to be grateful for all of the amazing things or people in your life, because one day they might not be there anymore. If you find the girl who possesses all of the qualities you could dream of and more, hold onto her.

Because if you don't, you can bet someone is going to scoop her up and appreciate her the way she deserves faster than you can blink.

College is super hard. Between working, studying, and having a social life, it feels like a struggle to just keep afloat.

I understand. When you feel like your drowning and there's no way to stay afloat I understand that it feels like everyone else is doing just fine. I understand all the frustration, long nights in the library, and that feeling that you want to just throw in the towel. I understand that sometimes it's too hard to get out of bed because your brain is already filled with too much information to remember. I understand because I am also feeling pretty burnt out.

Some of the best advice I've ever received was from my social studies teacher in sophomore year of high school. He stated, "If you don't know it at midnight, you're not going to know it for the 8 a.m. exam, so get some sleep."

It's such a simple piece of advice, but it holds so much accuracy and it's something that the majority of college students need to hear and listen to. "All-nighters" are a commonality on college campuses in order to cram in studying for an exam that is typically the next day.

Sometimes my brain just starts turning on an idea and it doesn't want to stop.

I don't know if it is related to my anxiety, perfectionism or depression. I don't know why it happens. It's frustrating, it's painful and it stops me from functioning.

You are not alone.

This is for the girls who have dealt with an emotionally, mentally, physically or verbally abusive father.

The ones who have grown up with a false lens of what love is and how relationships should be. The ones who have cried themselves to sleep wondering why he hurts you and your family so much. This is for all the girls who fall in love with broken boys that carry baggage bigger than their own, thinking it's their job to heal them because you watched your mother do the same.
