I remember the first time you told me you loved me - you wrote it, in German, on your notebook during Psych. I thought that it was romantic and sweet. You had a way of making me feel so loved, and so wanted, that it was so incredibly easy for me to fall in love with you. For the first time, I actually felt a real connection with someone; I actually thought that I had found true happiness.

It seemed a little surreal at first. I actually thought to myself, "This handsome, funny guy is attracted to ME. This is some sort of a joke. I must be getting punk'd."

But as it turned out, you really did like me. And it was wonderful. You made me so happy. In my eyes, you were the definition of perfect. I was thinking that we would be together and everything would be perfect. If only you would let me..

I should have seen the signs in the beginning - the fact that you constantly ignored my messages, or would be extremely distant at times, or the fact that I ONLY saw you at night. I kept thinking that at some point you would have to let me in. But you never did. The more distant you became and the more lies you told, the more irritated I became with you. I kept walking away and saying, "I've had enough." But I would always come back and the cycle would repeat, over and over again.

Finally, we'd both had enough. It became clear that no matter how hard I tried, I couldn't get you to open up. And I couldn't make you want something with me. I walked away for the last time and we haven't spoken since.

I wish I could say that we ended on a good note, but that would be a lie. I wish I could say that I never think about you, but that would be the biggest lie of all. I miss you more than I ever thought possible. And I wish that things had worked out differently for us. But You've moved on and you're starting a new chapter in your life with someone new.

I wish I could say that I'm happy for you, but I can't..Because, as much as I hate to admit it, I still love you.

But you broke me, and for that, I don't think i'll ever be able to forgive you.

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.
