An Open Letter To The Boy I'm Talking To

Dear ___,

Sometimes it's just nice to have someone to talk to at 2 p.m. or maybe even 1 a.m. Thank you for being that person for me. Thanks for always being there for me whether I was having a good or bad day. I know that at the end of the day I could always go to you and tell you anything.

Everyone says that they love the "talking stage" because that's when you learn the most about the other person. It's exciting to learn so much about a person in a short amount of time. From strangers, to being able to name your favorite color and having goofy pictures of you on my phone. I never thought you would become such an important part of my life.

To be completely honest, I'm really glad that you and I are not rushing into things. I'm glad we are taking the time to be able to figure out what we want in our lives. Sometimes people tend to jump into something serious so fast that they end up not working out at the end. I hope you and I will be different.

I'm so glad that you and I are always on the go. Hanging out with you is probably one of my favorite things to do. I love that we can just sit there and watch Netflix on some nights. (You got me watching shows that I would've never watched on my own.) I also love that you and I can just go anywhere and still make it fun. I love that our group of friends can hangout together and not be awkward. Your sincerity to my friends truly mean a lot and I'm glad that you are becoming friends with all my friends. I knew from the moment I told my friends about you, they were excited to learn more about you.

I'm glad that you know the joy and the frustration that comes with playing golf. Being able to go to you at the end of my frustrating day and tell you about my round or telling you about this awesome shot I hit is honestly so awesome. I love that I can share such a big part of my life with you.

Whatever we may become or not become, I am truly thankful to be able to meet someone like you. You and I clicked instantly but I never knew that we would be where we are today. It's weird to think that a year ago, we were just friends that said "hi" to each other. I would have never thought that I would be this close to you back then. I also never thought I would feel like Edmond was home.Thank you.

Thank you for listening to me rant about the stupidest stuff while you nod your head and smile at me. I can't really tell if you've lost interest in what I'm saying or not because you keep smiling at me. Thank you for picking me up when I'm down, literally and figuratively. Thank you for not letting me go to my sorority stuff alone. Thank you for studying with me late at night. Thanks for going out and eating with me nonstop because I never want to cook. Oops.. butthank you for being my person.

xoxo,
G

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

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.
