What I imagine finding the one will be like…..

Okay ladies and gents (if you are reading this), close your eyes, clear your mind and let’s use your imagination. You know those days when you are so busy that you don’t eat anything ALL day. The days that are like don’t look at me like that or you will be losing your left arm due to my hangariness. The day drags on and then you finally have time to go to a restaurant, order your meal and then wait for an eternity for it to arrive. Then. It. Happens. A tray suddenly comes from behind the corner with your waiter or waitress’s arms attached to it. Your eyes get big, your heart starts beating really fast, you get all giddy and your stomach drops.

That’s what I hope finding the one will be like. The mouth open, deer in the headlights, stop you right in your tracks, fireworks and the thought “Oh Shit! I’m in trouble” running thru your mind moment. Just imagine one day when you are walking to class, getting into your car or doing your everyday activities and that happens. Seeing someone look at you the way you look at your food when it gets put right in front of you would be the absolute best feeling ever. Of course this isn’t a fairy tale, you might find the one when you literally just rolled out of bed to get to that class on time. You might find the one when you are walking to class and a bird poops on you. You might find the one when you just left a party and you are throwing up and peeing yourself (Hey! Don’t judge, we have all been there). I wish that we had a magical way of knowing that this person was our one and only, a necklace that matched up to theirs, a tattoo that glowed when theirs was next to ours, anything that would help us to stop wasting our time on the douchebags that don’t even matter. Whenever it might be I hope your one will be the most caring, compassionate, awesome, amazing, beautiful creature that you have ever laid your eyes on. When you find the one you will absolutely have hard times because everyone goes through them in this crazy life we live in, but I hope your one will be there every minute to help you get through with a strong shoulder to lean on. I hope your one says “Come bother me baby” like the cute couple off The Choice. I hope your one snaps candid pictures of you and posts them with the cutest captions so that everyone can see what their world looks like. I hope your one makes this crazy thing called life worth the roller coaster ride that it brings with all the loops and turns. I hope your one makes you feel like you are worth it every single day because baby you are. With all fairy tales, the prince and the princess, the prince and the prince, the princess and the princess (whatever you are into) lived happily ever after.

I know that life isn't a fairy tale but we live in a messed up world that I hope that this article brought some hope into this magical moment that you WILL experience one day. When this one falls into your life, I hope you fight like hell to keep this person that will become your person, your everything, your kind of church, your healing hand, your light at the end of the tunnel in your life. We aren't promised tomorrow and thing happen so fight for those that would never leave you because everyone needs someone worth fighting for.

This is for the girls who have dealt with an emotionally, mentally, physically or verbally abusive father.

The ones who have grown up with a false lens of what love is and how relationships should be. The ones who have cried themselves to sleep wondering why he hurts you and your family so much. This is for all the girls who fall in love with broken boys that carry baggage bigger than their own, thinking it's their job to heal them because you watched your mother do the same.

Blair Waldorf Quote
"DESTINY IS FOR LOSERS. IT'S JUST A STUPID EXCUSE TO WAIT FOR THINGS TO HAPPEN INSTEAD OF MAKING THEM HAPPEN." - BLAIR WALDORF.

The world stopped in 2012 when our beloved show "Gossip Girl" ended. For six straight years, we would all tune in every Monday at 9:00 p.m. to see Upper Eastside royalty in the form of a Burberry headband clad Blair Waldorf. Blair was the big sister that we all loved to hate. How could we ever forget the epic showdowns between her and her frenemy Serena Van Der Woodsen? Or the time she banished Georgina Sparks to a Christian summer camp? How about that time when she and her girls took down Bart Bass? Blair is life. She's taught us how to dress, how to be ambitious, and most importantly, how to throw the perfect shade.

too tired to care

We've all been there. From move-in day to the first finals week in college, your first term is an adventure from start to finish. In honor of college decisions coming out recently, I want to recap some of the most common experiences college freshmen experience.

1. The awkward hellos on move-in day.

You're moving your stuff onto your floor, and you will encounter people you don't know yet in the hallway. They live on your floor, so you'll awkwardly smile and maybe introduce yourself. As you walk away, you will wonder if they will ever speak to you again, but don't worry, there's a good chance that you will make some great friends on your floor!

We all freak out when things don't go exactly as planned or when our expectations are unmet. As time goes on, we realize that the uncertainty of college is what makes it great. Here are some helpful reminders about life in college.
