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.

I think the hardest thing about going away to college is figuring out how to become an adult. Leaving a household where your parents took care of literally everything (thanks, Mom!) and suddenly becoming your own boss is overwhelming. I feel like I'm doing a pretty good job of being a grown-up, but once in awhile I do something that really makes me feel like I'm #adulting. Twenty-somethings know what I'm talking about.

I went to a small high school, like 120-people-in-my-graduating-class small. It definitely had some good and some bad, and if you also went to a small high school, I’m sure you’ll relate to the things that I went through.

1. If something happens, everyone knows about it

Who hooked up with whom at the party? Yeah, heard about that an hour after it happened. You failed a test? Sorry, saw on Twitter last period. Facebook fight or, God forbid, real fight? It was on half the class’ Snapchat story half an hour ago. No matter what you do, someone will know about it.

Chandler Bing

I'm assuming that we've all heard of the hit 90's TV series, Friends, right? Who hasn't? Admittedly, I had pretty low expectations when I first started binge watching the show on Netflix, but I quickly became addicted.

Without a doubt, Chandler Bing is the most relatable character, and there isn't an episode where I don't find myself thinking, Yup, Iam definitely the Chandler of my friend group.

Working with the public can be a job, in and of itself. Some people are just plain rude for no reason. But regardless of how your day is going, always having to be in the best of moods, or at least act like it... right?

1. When a customer wants to return a product, hands you the receipt, where is printed "ALL SALES ARE FINAL" in all caps.

2. Just because you might be having a bad day, and you're in a crappy mood, doesn't make it okay for you to yell at me or be rude to me. I'm a person with feelings, just like you.

3. People refusing to be put on hold when a customer is standing right in front of you. Oh, how I wish I could just hang up on you!
