Boys Go To Jupiter

I've been thinking a lot about whether or not I wanted to write a blogpost about my recent break up. It was undeniably the three years that were the best, most difficult, and most inspiring years of my life. I've learned so much from them. I'm still so young. And I feel incredibly well equipped to face my future.

I also spent a lot of time so far over break (yay for having two weeks left!) wondering if I should write about my "resolutions" for the new year. Every blogger seems to be doing some variation on these posts, and I thought it might be a good idea to hop on the bandwagon.

But this is blogging, and it's not about the bandwagon. It's about sharing my life, my experiences, and having something useful to look back on. Why should I sit here and tell you that I'm gonna go to the gym when I know I'm not? Why should I vow to eat more vegetables and cut out the ice cream when that's not really what I want to be blogging about?

I woke up this morning and realized that I wasn't going to benefit from telling you all my "resolutions" that are just the same as everyone else's. And I didn't want to drown you all by talking about my relationship, because some things are better kept private and if I feel the time is right, I'll fill y'all in. 

So, today! Here's what I have planned. My fifteen (for 2015 because I still wanted to tie it in somehow) kickass reasons why being single is okay and why it's gonna be aaaaawesome!

Let's get started, shall we?

TIMELESSPREP'S 15 REASONS WHY BEING SINGLE IS THE BOMB DIGGITY

1 //  I'm not tied down to anyone. I can go to bed without texting someone, wake up without texting someone, and I'm only responsible for myself.

2 // I can go out to parties and not be worried that there's someone three hours away worrying (or not worrying) about me.

3// I can wear lipstick all the ding dang time and no one can complain about it.

4 // I get to talk about cute college boys with my friends and not feel guilty.

5 // I can spend time finding out who I really am, what I'm really interested in, and what I want out of life.

6 // I can dedicate more time to my studies without being distracted by texts.

7 // I get to meet all new people by rushing and hopefully joining a Greek chapter, and going to formals!

8 // I can hang out with my guy friends and really get to know them better.

9 // I get to treat myself to Valentine's day presents and chocolate ;)

10 // I can dress however I want without someone questioning "who really decides what fashion is."

11 // I can reconnect with my girlfriends since we lost touch over the years.

12 // When my friends have boy problems, I can give them experienced advice and not be stressed about my own guy.

13 // I will indulge in myself and make myself a priority.

14 // I know the characteristics I don't like in a guy and can learn from my past mistakes.

15 // There is someone out there who will treat me better, and I have all the time in the world to find him.

Well there ya have it, folks. My fifteen reasons why boys are stoopid and I'm excited to be single! Here's some Tumblr inspiration for good measure:

I hope that this post can help even some of you out a little bit. Remember, that you do not need to be perfect all the time, It is okay to give yourself space and grow apart from things that are no longer good for you. Design your life just the way you want, so you can wake up everyday and love what you're doing. If that means removing a toxic boy, let him go. I promise everything will be okay in the end.
