An Open Letter to My First Love

I thought you were the one, but you failed me.

An Open Letter to My First Love

Don’t take this letter to be a warm welcoming. I can’t wait to graduate and never see your face again. I hate the way you talked to me in the past. You seem so submissive now that I’m gone. Blaming me for leaving when you were the one that constantly cheated. Why? What was the purpose of cheating on a girl that wanted to give you the world, yet you gave her nothing but the dirt of your disgusting personality.

Although thank you for that, I used everything you gave me to build a foundation of understanding that I will one day meet “the one.” It’s funny to see you try coming back throughout this year, leaving comments like;

“When you and your boyfriend break up, hit me up.”

It’s sickening to think you still believe there's a chance to be with me. I asked you multiple times to leave me alone, I pleaded with you to ignore my presence; I don’t want you in my life. I wish you never walked into it in the first place. How does it feel? Knowing that I will never be low enough to amount to your emotional abuse again?

You tried stating I left, I cheated, I still loved you deep down and that I pushed you away. Were you just lying to yourself to bandage your broken pride? You remind me of the evil villains in Disney movies; how sinister they may be. I digress, thank you for teaching me what love shouldn't be. In which making me realize that who I have now is better than you'll ever be.

Goodbye, every little girl’s worst nightmare.

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.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.

Top 10 Reasons My School Rocks!

Why I Chose a Small School Over a Big University.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
