How To Survive Living in a Small Town

Image
Are you a city person living in a small town and don't know how to enjoy yourself? Are you curious how people enjoy living in a small town? You have clicked on the right link! I have lived in a small town for pretty my entire life and I hope to move to a bigger city one day. But people have asked me how I survive and how do I have fun when there's not as much entertainment and sightseeing like in the big cities.

I'm a pretty #basic kinda girl, but I love finding things to do that are unique and different from the norm. I try to break out of my comfort zone and find places that are special to that particular city. Here's a list of things you can do based on my experiences.

If you know me personally, you know I watch a lot of YouTube. My taste has changed over the years, and today I watch mostly beauty/fashion videos. And literally EVERYTHING that I have learned about makeup has been from YouTube, so I thought I would share my favorite beauty channels here! These are literally my go-to channels.

Oh how funny life is! If I'm confusing you, basically the expectations you're seeing below are what I was told by society and the reality is what actually happened. (Disclaimer: this is my  reality. If you had different experiences, that is so great and I'm genuinely happy for you and just disregard this post, haha) Expectation: You're gonna love college. Reality : College was actually one of the worst times of my life. 10/10 would not recommend. Expectation : Sarah, I promise your experience in college will be completely different from high school. Reality : College was the larger version of high school with less rules and a lot more expensive. Expectation : If you d
