The Girl Who Knows She's Worth It

I am worth it, and I dare you to tell me otherwise.

I will be the first to admit that I have flaws, because I am not afraid to embrace them. I may not have it all together, but I know what I am capable of. I am the girl who knows she's worth it.

I am worth being bragged about. I am worth being fought for. And, I am worth being loved.

Some days I may talk a little too much, or sometimes I might just completely shut down and push people away. My moods may change often, and I might be a little irritating to those around me. I could never promise to be perfect, because I will mess up every now and then. I can be stubborn, and I might even make you feel as if you are speaking to a brick wall on my really bad days. There will be times where I may act extremely emotional, and there will be days where I may even act the slightest bit careless. I might eat too much junk food, and I honestly don't exercise as much as I should. I get a little frustrated when things do not go my way, and I might even push myself too hard, sometimes. I'm clumsy, and I embarrass myself more often than your average person. I'm sensitive, and I wear my heart on my sleeve. I love too hard, and I look for the good in people, even when it is quite obvious that there is none.

Yes, I have flaws. But, I am worth it.

I am passionate, and I never give up. I work hard, and I support those around me. I am genuine. I go out of my way to help others, and I neglect myself in the process. I take care of my responsibilities, and still make time for the ones I love. I am selfless, sometimes. I build my own self back up when I am constantly beaten down by others. I don't look for handouts. I'm a giver, but I've had things taken from me. I have reached my breaking point many times, but I find the strength to bounce back. I apologize when I am in the wrong, and I do not hold grudges. I am focused, and I have an extensive list of goals I have set for myself. I daydream (obsessively) about my future, and constantly think of ways to become a better person. I have the drive and dedication to pursue a lifetime full of success. I do not allow anyone to interfere with my dreams or ambitions. I have morals, values and beliefs. I am still growing as a person, and I am working hard to become the woman that I am destined to be. I am not anyone's doormat, nor am I a toy. I am powerful, and I am strong. I am a sucker for love, a hopeless romantic. I will have your back when no one else does, and I will love you unconditionally.

Yes, you are right. I am not perfect. Please, tell me something that I don't know.

I am the girl who knows her worth. I know I am flawed, and I am OK with that.

I am often misunderstood, and I've been made fun of more than most people would think. I'm mocked, and belittled. I face many demons alone, and still manage to stay strong. I am a lover, and a fighter. I'll always fight for what I believe in, and I won't back down. I forgive people who have hurt me, and I'm someone who believes in second chances. I am taken advantage of, and I've been made a fool out of, too. I have been through the ringer, and I have never allowed any struggles I have faced to alter my character.

No, I don't want sympathy, nor do I crave pity. The hardships I have faced, and the flaws I have do not define me as a person.

I am just a girl who knows she is worth it.

I thought senioritis in high school was rough until I became a college senior about to go into the real world. I'm supposed to have everything figured out, right? I mean I went through four years of tough classes and serious self-searching (and crying). What I found overall was Senioritis sneaking up on me.

College is filled with many things, and we're so often lectured to make the right decisions as we head out on our own into the college life. But sometimes it's necessary to indulge in some guilty pleasures as well as just doing things because you can. And honestly, a lot of the time it's inevitable. College is no piece of cake that's for sure, so it's okay to do some things you deep down know you shouldn't....once in a while anyways.
