1. Boys don’t matter — Every time before you go out on a Friday, you complain that the boy you hooked up with last week still hasn’t texted you, and you complain about it the WHOLE night. Do I text him, or do I not?? Then your friends tell you to stop complaining and move on. Why are we spending so much energy on this boy? When we’re out and about with our friends, we should be focusing on having fun and making memories with them! Not the dumb boy who is not responding to you. But when it’s 1:15 AM and he texts, “What are you up to?”, your drunk self freaks out to your friends for a second, and then somehow 30 minutes later, you end up at his apartment. In the morning you question your sanity for leaving a good time to go hang with a boy. We’ve all done it, don’t be afraid to admit
2. Do what makes you happy — You enter college with huge intentions, but have no idea what you’re going to major in. The struggle many of us deal with is whether we should major in what we love (even if it’s not the best field and odds are paychecks will be slim), or do we major in something we absolutely hate but know we will be financially stable after college. Sophomore year rolls around and you’ve switched your major at least three times and now is the time to declare if you’re ready to graduate. I say major in what makes you happy, and you will find your dream job and money won’t be an issue. But then again, having extra spending cash because of your job never hurt anyone either.
3. Stop overthinking everything — Stop over thinking everything. The emoji he sent you probably means nothing. He hasn’t texted yet, chill out we’re in college; he’s probably busy. No one really cares if you wear the blue cardigan or the black one. And no, stop freaking about if you look fat in that dress. Why do we overthink everything? We have way more important things to think about rather then freaking out if you should post that picture on Instagram or add that guy on snapchat.
4. Your body is a temple — Ha ha ha until you find yourself taking shots after shot and having that slice of pizza at 1 a.m. But you did work out last week, (even though it was the first time in a month…but its fine). I can do what I want with my body, and if I want more scoop of ice-cream I am going to have it; it just makes my temple a little sweeter.
5. School is a priority; not going out — Well that’s what most of us want to think, but then dancing and boys come into the picture and its so hard to resist going out! One night won’t kill me! My test isn’t until 3:00 tomorrow… I’ll just come home before 1 AM and I should be fine, right?
