An Open Letter To The Boy Who Isn't Ready

You’re reading this right now because I’ve called you out, the boy who has said, “I’m not ready for a relationship…” Well I am here to tell you, if you make her wait forever, she will not be there, the girl who is worth it will not wait forever, even if she claims she will.

In the past, she was always the one that wasn’t ready. She would leave and you always looked for a band-aid at a party or in your phone that would get you through the night. Now she’s finally ready and you are not. She is ready to take the next step and that terrifies you for many valid reasons. You are screwed up from your previous relationship, well aren’t we all? You know this would be real, so before you decide to make her wait and take the risk of her leaving for someone who is ready, or pull the plug out of fear of love I want you to think about a few things.

Would seeing her dance in another man’s arm make you want to punch out glass? Will you go crazy if you see her car? Can you make it through the night thinking about another man laying next to her, and holding her close? Can you imagine her not being in your life? If you can’t make it through these things, then you need to get your shit together before another man does.

You know she’s beautiful and when she walks into a room, men are staring straight at her. She has a smile that will light up the room and a personality that welcomes anyone in. You’ve seen it, guys walk straight up to her, made comments about taking a chance at her and you have had to fight them off. You know she could have any man in the room if she chose to, but she has chosen you. You have told all your friends who ask that you will eventually end up dating her when it’s the right time. They ask if you love her and you can’t lie, so you say yes. You know that girl cares more about you than any girl ever could; she has done more for you than she should because of how great she thinks you are.

The girl that is in your mind right now is there for a reason. You know she is worthwhile and anyone would be lucky to have her, you don’t even think you deserve her but guess what she still wants you. So if you can’t imagine her not being around, do something about it. Make sure she knows how much you care about her. Make that girl yours before another man does.

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.
