Relationships And Girl Code

It's time for girls to stick together.

Relationships And Girl Code
MTV

In my ideal world females would be as nice to each other as they are when they're drunk in the bathroom of the bar. Many of those reading this will know what I mean, but for those who don't, I'll explain. The women's bathroom is like being in the "Twilight Zone." Girls compliment complete strangers on their outfits while making small talk about some guy out on the dance floor. Instantly, best friends for the night are made. It's honestly quite refreshing and a nice change of pace. Why can't we, as females, be like this all of the time to one another? Given you're not going to like every woman you come across, but you can still be civil and friendly. Do you realize how much better a place the world would be? Honestly, it doesn't take much.

Something I strongly believe in is Girl Code. It's something I believe needs to be followed more, respected and cherished. In today's society, where people tend to be more self centered, the idea has become lost. There are many parts to Girl Code, as MTV's hit show will tell you. However, there is a part that I believe in more heavily than the rest and that has to deal with relationships.

Almost every girl is after their "happily ever after." She wants to find the person she'll spend the rest of her life with. Some people want it so bad that they are willing to get in-between another couple for the chance that it may work out. Maybe that's not even the reason why, but instead for the complete opposite reason. They are just selfish and are looking for a little late night fling. I'm telling you, don't be this girl. Seriously, just don't.

Often times when I tell my people my opinion they say, "Well I don't know the girl" or "It's not my issue, it should be up to her boyfriend to stay loyal." That is the issue right there. It's a selfish reasoning and only one that will make you feel better and help justify the wrongdoing. Now maybe it's because I've been the girl who has been cheated on that makes me more opinionated and biased, but truly before you act, think. How would you feel to be the girl at the other end? Why would you want to cause another girl the excruciating heartbreak pain that I'm sure you've felt at least once in your life. For a few hook-ups? Because he's hot? Because you think you can get a relationship out of him? Trust me, you can't.

Their relationship probably won't work out and for good reasons. Anyone who is willing to cheat isn't someone anyone should be with anyways. But have some damn decency. Females need to stick together and follow Girl Code. We need to build each other up not break each other's relationships. I will not even attempt to be with someone who is even "talking" to another girl. Maybe that's a bit extreme, but as I said before, I'm extremely empathetic to this type of situation. There are so many guys out there, why go for one that's taken? Why not just simply be a good, decent human?

Be the girl who walks away, deletes the number and just moves on because it's simply the right thing to do. Be the girl who sleeps with ease at night because she turned down someone who had a girlfriend. Sure, he might cheat anyways with a different girl, but you know what? That girl wasn't you. I believe good things come to those who do the right thing. Something as simple as turning down another male just because it's the right thing to do will make you feel better, I promise. However, if it doesn't, there's a larger issue at hand and you might want to take a step back and look at yourself in the mirror.

I'll leave you with one last piece of advice, live your life like the drunk girl in bar bathroom.

Girl Code.

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
