To The One I Will Marry

You’ve done it. You captured my heart. I have thought so long and hard about the man you would be. The man who would one day ask my dad for my hand, and the man I would run away with. I have prayed for you since I was a little girl. I pray now that you will be loved the way God desires you to be loved. I pray that I will let your heart run wild; that I will be vulnerable enough for you to unveil my beauty. I pray every day that I will be kind, quiet, and faithful to you always; faithful in every way. I will be there for you through the good times and the bad, the happy and the sad. No matter what the occasion, I will stand by your side with a smile because you, simply, are enough.” When the rain is blowing in your face and the whole world is on your case. I could offer you a warm embrace to make you feel my love.”-Adele “Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor other, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delights in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. Love never fails.” 1 Corinthians 13: 4-8 I have worked hard to prepare my heart to love the way that God designs love to be, and I have wondered who would be the person to receive my love.

When you get on one knee

Know that I have waited for you my whole life. I have hoped that this would happen since you first swept me off my feet. I trust with my heart that you have made this decision knowing God has approved us spending the rest of our lives together. When you ask me to marry you, you ask for every part of me… the messy hair, loud laugh, and obsession with Netflix. But you also marry the girl who runs for God, the one who adores you more than you will ever know. “I could make you happy, make your dreams come true. Nothing that I wouldn’t do, go to the ends of the earth for you. To make you feel my love.” -Adele

Happily Ever After

It wont be easy and it may not be fun at times but it’ll be our happily ever after. You will be my world. You will be my rock and my comfort. I pray for this time, for our future. I pray that it will be full of laughter and love, of prayer and commitment. I pray that God prepares my heart for this time; that I will be able to love you unconditionally as long as I live. I pray that He continually melts my heart when I see you. I pray that we are blessed in every way. That my breath is still taken away when you kiss me. I pray that no matter what, you are ready for anything He brings. I ask that you will be led by Him and we, your family, will follow.

I promise to love you with every breath I take. I promise to give you my all in every aspect of my life. I promise to give you the fullest life I can. I promise to be your forever.

25 Beatles Lyrics: Your Go-To Guide for Every Situation

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.

Student Life

Waitlisted for a College Class? Here's What to Do!

Dealing with the inevitable realities of college life.

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.

The Best Lines from the Fab Four

And in the end, the love you take is equal to the love you make

The sun is up, the sky is blue, it's beautiful and so are you

Love is old, love is new, love is all, love is you

There's nowhere you can be that isn't where you're meant to be

Life is very short, and there's no time for fussing and fighting, my friend

He say, "I know you, you know me", One thing I can tell you is you got to be free

Oh please, say to me, You'll let me be your man. And please say to me, You'll let me hold your hand

It was twenty years ago today, Sgt. Pepper taught the band to play. They've been going in and out of style, but they're guaranteed to raise a smile

Living is easy with eyes closed, misunderstanding all you see

Can you hear me? When it rains and shine, it's just a state of mind

Little darling, it's been long cold lonely winter. Little darling, it feels like years since it' s been here. Here comes the sun, Here comes the sun, and I say it's alright

We danced through the night and we held each other tight, and before too long I fell in love with her. Now, I'll never dance with another when I saw her standing there

I love you, I love you, I love you, that's all I want to say

You say you want a revolution. Well you know, we all want to change the world

All the lonely people, where do they all come from. All the lonely people, where do they all belong

Oh, I get by with a little help from my friends

Hey Jude, don't make it bad. Take a sad song and make it better

Yesterday, all my troubles seemed so far away. Now it looks as though they're here to stay. Oh, I believe in yesterday

And when the brokenhearted people, living in the world agree, there will be an answer, let it be.

And anytime you feel the pain, Hey Jude, refrain. Don't carry the world upon your shoulders

I'll give you all I got to give if you say you'll love me too. I may not have a lot to give but what I got I'll give to you. I don't care too much for money. Money can't buy me love

All you need is love, love is all you need

Whisper words of wisdom, let it be

Blackbird singing in the dead of night, Take these broken wings and learn to fly. All your life, You were only waiting for this moment to arise

Though I know I'll never lose affection, for people and things that went before. I know I'll often stop and think about them. In my life, I love you more

Obviously the best superpower.

There have been many lessons learned.

1. The importance of traditions.

2. How to be thankful for family and friends.

3. How to give back.

4. What the word "community" really means.

5. That it isn't about the destination, but the journey.

6. The consequences of making bad choices.

7. To trust people, until you have a reason not to.

8. To be welcoming and accepting of everyone.

9. How to be my own, individual person.

10. How to work for what I want.

11. How to be great at giving directions.

12. How to be humble.

13. To be well-rounded.

14. How to be great at conflict resolution.

15. The beauty of getting outside and exploring.

16. To be prepared for anything.

17. That you don't always have to do it alone.

18. How to be creative.

19. To brush off gossip.

I have never been so thankful to know you.
