From The Girl Who Can't Imagine Being In A Serious Relationship

I don't dream about the man I want, I dream about the puppies I need.

From The Girl Who Can't Imagine Being In A Serious Relationship
Maddison Boys

I am not your average girl. I don’t stay up at night dreaming about the cute boy I will marry or about finding a guy that I could settle down with. Instead, I dream about the puppy I want to get, the trips I want to go on, and all the other things I’d love to explore in my life.

I can’t imagine being in a serious relationship because there is still so much I don’t know about myself.

I’m still finding out who I am, who I want to be and what all of that means. My question to myself is always “how can I be with someone else when I don’t know who I am?”

Some may look at me and think that I’m lonely, but I’m quite the opposite! I am free to do whatever it is that I want at any moment. I can go ship off to Paris for a week if I feel like it, or travel to anywhere in the world if I desired (or had the funds to do so) I don’t need to tell anyone where I’m going, what I’m doing etc.

I can’t imagine what life is like for those girls who don’t go out without their SO or spend every waking moment with their significant others. I mean, I love my friends and I spend most of my time with them, but I also spend a lot of time alone reflecting on my life, and who I am. I’m able to see who I truly want to be without having anyone else’s life involved. I can truly find myself without having to make sure that my SO has the same life plans as mine.

Instead I know that wherever my life takes me, I’ll someday find what most people do, but for now, I can’t imagine being in a serious relationship and neither can some of these single girls who could careless about it.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Whether you met your new love interest online, through mutual friends, or another way entirely, you'll definitely want to know what you're getting into. I mean, really, what's the point in entering a relationship with someone if you don't know whether or not you're compatible on a very basic level?

Consider these 21 questions to ask in the talking stage when getting to know that new guy or girl you just started talking to:

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.

Top 10 Reasons My School Rocks!

Why I Chose a Small School Over a Big University.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
