You Broke Me, But I Refuse To Be Your Victim

All the sadness turned to anger and this is my final letter for my own closure.

132
Free

Dear You, again.


I'm not finished with you-

almost like the way you told me to

"hold on"

and how

"it would be okay".

I fucking lost every bit of the sacred, white purity I was born with.

I am not done feeling violated when you got off free- nothing at all.


The drive home was more tempting than usual, having an anxiety disorder and driving made me want to floor it off the road.

I wanted to cry- but I couldn't.

I felt that if I cried, I would succumb to being your victim.

I refuse to be a victim,

Especially yours.

All that night, September 28, I tossed, and I turned- seeing nothing but your face, every direction I turned.


I was so fucking cold - physically and emotionally because all my walls were knocked down by you.

Leaving me so vulnerable,

naked,

and scared.



Trust was a two-way street, but you tried passing me in my red Jeep, knocking my entire life off of my road to recovery that I had so far conquered.

I'm back to square one. I hope you're happy with the way you manipulated my entire being- not just my body but my soul, too. and for that, I will never forgive you.

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.
