An Open Letter To The Teacher Who Cares

To the one who became my at-school mom.

An Open Letter To The Teacher Who Cares
Boy Meets World

If there was a teacher you had in high school or maybe even a teacher from your younger years that you always visited, who knew just about everything going on in your life, then you're a lucky one.

To the teacher who became my at-school mom.

Thank you. Thank you for always listening to my probably really annoying problems, and giving me the same advice over and over. Thank you for being someone who really cares about me and wants me to realize my full potential.

Through all the problems I had in high school from stress to boys, to any other type of stupid problem I ran across, your classroom was the place I knew I could go to cry, talk, or forget about it for a little bit.

You created a safe place for my friends and me, and whatever we talked about stayed there. At one point we all had the most intense conversations or shared the most personal stuff and no one ever found out beyond the 4 walls of your classroom.

Thank you for not only seeing me as a student but a friend. Someone who you talk to about the world, life and who knows what else. But also making sure I know, that no matter where I am in life, I’ll have your guidance through it all.

Thank you for all of the life advice you’ve given about anything and will continue to give me when I’m at college and living my life after high school.

I feel like I never really can explain the way our relationship has helped me and taught me through the last four years, but now that I’ll be on my way to college, I’ll be able to use so many different lessons I learned from you while I’m there. I’ll forever be grateful for you and like you said, “both of our lives are changed forever…”

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.
