May your eyeliner be even
Your lipstick always fresh
May your shoes never be painful
And your nails never a mess
 
May your hair fall into place
Despite storm and windy weather
And in the heat of summer
Your sundress lighter than a feather
 
May your health routine 
Not contain a pesky diet
So when dessert is passed around
You never fail to try it
 
May your poise and grace 
Inspire suitors left and right
May your high class style
Stun and awe every night 
 
But overall my prayer for you
Is simple, classic, and sincere – 
May you be judged for your brains 
And when you speak, may others hear
 
May your confidence shine brightly 
In every situation 
And when you set a goal, 
May you reach your destination
 
As you grow and change, 
Be not held back by your past
And as you find yourself, 
May you find friendship that will last
 
I pray that everyday you know
How beautiful you can be
And do what makes you happy –
In life, your passion is the key
 
At this time in your life
Things are challenging and dark
But know that being true to yourself
Will help you pass the mark

Meet HCND's current Campus Coordinator and Editor-in-Chief! Originally from outside of Chicago, Sara is a Senior Peace Studies, Theology, and Italian major at Notre Dame (yes, that is three majors; no, she doesn't have any free time). When she isn't painting her nails, Sara enjoys cooking vegetarian friendly dishes, taking pictures for The Dome yearbook, and reading for fun. Sara began writing for Her Campus Notre Dame in May of 2013 and quickly fell in love with the site and it's staff! After writing for the inagural editorial staff (shout-out to AnnaLee, Katie, and Lex!) for a semester, Sara decided to branch out and become an editor. She particularly enjoys doing interviews and sharing travel expereinces, as well as connecting with the HCND reader network through thought-provoking social commentaries. If you like what you read from her on a weekly basis, this self-proclaimed "Queen of Social Media" has several accounts for you to follow - twitter, instagram (@saraspit22), tumblr, and a blog!
