11 Things Every Girl Just Needs In Her Life

In This Article:

As we live life, we make some discoveries like that we feel absolutely fabulous with a power outfit, great makeup, and a sassy perfume. So here's a list of things that every girl should have to feel like her best self all the time.

One expensive bra

You feel powerful and confident no matter what t-shirts and sweats you throw on top of it.

A silk pillowcase

This thing is magic. My hair was all frizzy and unruly before, but in the years since I've had my satin (cheaper, slightly less good option) pillowcase, my curly hair is never frizzy and unmanageable anymore.

A really nice perfume

Not a body mist. A really nice perfume lasts all day long, compliments your natural scent, and gives you so much more confidence.

A phone with a good camera

Honestly, phones are our only cameras now, so why get one that takes subpar pictures. You want your memories to look as good as possible.

Crafting stuff

So we all need a break from real life sometimes, and a really fun break is doing a hobby that involves crafting because you get something out of it in the end. I've made paintings, jewelry, and clothing, and it's great to see how much you can do, yourself.

High-quality sports clothing

Once you put on Lululemons, you're not going back. Those things are magic. And really any sports bra that actually works is a godsend.

A cute water bottle

We don't hydrate ourselves enough unless we carry a water bottle. So don't carry around an ugly thing that you're embarrassed by, just suck it up and buy the overpriced cute one this time.

Vitamins

We also don't eat healthy enough, and girls are more prone to a lot of bodily problems than guys are (like anemia coming from losing blood every month.) So just take your vitamins and take care of your health.

A suit

You will never feel more powerful than you do in a hot suit and some pumps. Every job interview, presentation, and board meeting will be conquered. Get it now just to walk down the street too.

Non-drugstore eyeshadow

Drug store is honestly pretty decent, and worth buying over the expensive nice stuff at Sephora on most days, but the exception to the rule is eyeshadow. No good one exists. Don't fool yourself.

High thread-count sheets

I only went up to, like, 500, and it's magical. I had no idea sheets could feel that good. They don't sound worth it, but oh my gosh, they are.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?

Finals week is upon us. It is a magical time of year during which college students everywhere flock to the library in attempt to learn a semester's worth of knowledge in only a week. For some students, it's their first time in the library all semester, maybe ever. Others have slaved away many nights under the fluorescent lights, and are slightly annoyed to find their study space being invaded by amateurs. While these newbies wander aimlessly around the first floor, hopelessly trying to find a table, the OGs of the library are already on the third floor long tables deep into their studies. Here is a few signs that you may live in the library, whether you'd like to admit it or not.
