23 Things Alcoholics Say, Even If They Don't Remember They Did
Louis Blythe

1. I'm not that drunk. I've only had a few glasses, perhaps a couple bottles.

2. I don't usually drink that much. Maybe three or four times a week. It really depends on how bad it gets.

3. I do not remember much from before. I try to suppress things; swallow the love I felt until it digests in my stomach and leaves my body. It's all sh*t anyway.

4. I remember everything.

5. I almost called my ex, but I guess I forgot I had deleted his number awhile ago.

6. I don't mind that he broke me, and I hope he is doing okay. He deserves the happiness he never received.

7. I pray for the day he breaks. What about the happiness he stole from me?

8. I am terrified my new love will leave like the last. How am I supposed to keep my doors unlocked when all people see is an illuminated exit sign?

9. I haven't had anymore late-night panic attacks.

10. I am letting go of him, his hands, and his lips.

11. Maybe he and I could be friends again. We could make it work.

12. I am fine with how things ended.

13. I think about that night over and over again. For awhile, I was angry too.

14. I dyed my hair blue. I could've chosen pink or purple or green, but I chose blue.

15. Blue was his favorite color.

16. I miss him more than I intended to.

17. Maybe he misses me too.

18. If I meet someone new, it is not considered cheating to want someone that will never come back. Right?

19. He never loved me anyway.

20. I still love him. I feel like drinking.

21. I always hated the smell of vodka, but it tastes so good coming from his lips.

22. I never said I was drunk on alcohol.

23. He is intoxicating.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

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:

Is there really such a difference in Challah bread or Easter Bread?

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.
