Single Girl Anthem

I'm right there too.

Single Girl Anthem
Molly Woolworth

Alright guys, this is going to be a little different. I'm writing this whole thing as a mostly joke. I mean the humor comes in the truth. I wanted to write this as the "Single Girl Anthem" because as a single girl, it's pretty true. The effort is there, but not always the most successful of methods is employed. And I wear this outfit a lot. I mean a lot. This is basically my morning routine. Here's a peak into the secret world of Molly. It's not a very exciting world.

Should I wear make-up today? Who am I kidding? I don't have anyone to impress. But wait. Yes I do. Do I want to get up at 6:40 before my eight o'clock to wear make-up though? Is it really worth it? Molly, our future husband could be in that eight o'clock class. Slow down, we're a freshman. But for how long? A year. Get back to the task. I guess some foundation wouldn't be that bad...

What should I wear today? I can see my leggings enticing me from the corner... No. I can't. I've worn leggings too many times this week. Someone is going to take notice. Okay, okay. I'll wear jeans. But which shirt? Which shirt says "I'm cute and wife material."? Molly, why would a shirt need to say I'm wife material? Because I am! Not really, my dorm is a mess. Besides, I'm here to get my education. That comes first. I know, but I just like the option to be open. It's not open. It's never been open. Maybe I should wear a dress. Maybe I should wear eyeliner. Great point. Flannel it is.

Okay, okay. Hair. I can do my hair. It's short, there's not that much to do. Oh, but I took my shower last night. I have a fro. A straight, ridiculous fro. Okay, I should do something. Do bobby pins work? And.... I look like an alien. Alright. That's not going to work. There's always a ponytail. I love my baby ponytail. It's so cute and little. That works.

Shoes... Shoesshoesshoes.... Okay. If I wear my red converse, I don't have to tie them, but my navy ones are more toned down. They match everything better. Oh, but what if it's hot today? And socks don't work well with these pants... Alright, I guess I should just go with Chacos. I mean, they literally go with everything. Not to mention, I just painted my toenails. Who am I kidding? I was always going to wear my Chacos. They're my favorite.

Alright let's do a quick run down of my outfit. Let's see... I have my hair in that half-ponytail. It doesn't look that well put together, but I guess it's more about the use than the look. I put foundation on! I don't look like I didn't go to bed last night because of homework at well past midnight. I have on one of my favorite and most comfy flannels. I love this flannel. And look! Denim jeans instead of leggings! That's something! Plus my Chacos! I love my Cha- Wait a second. Didn't I just wear something like this... Yep. There's my dirty flannel. In front of the closet. It didn't even make it to the bed where I store my pajamas. I wore something almost exactly like this yesterday. Same thing as usual. A flannel, jeans, and Chacos. My hair is in this ponytail and almost no makeup on. My future husband has a lot to deal with.

He's gonna love me.

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.
