I miss you, and I'd wish you'd come back.

Confessions From Your Once-Best Friend

They way we met sounds like some cheesy romantic comedy. I never expected anything to happen between us the way it did. We were awkward tweens in tutus and "Harry Potter" shirts. We were Specs and Taz, Blair and Serena. This all really started last summer. I would try and make plans, but you, to me at least, didn't seem interested in doing anything. Maybe it was because it seemed I was more interested in hanging out with my boyfriend, but that never meant I didn't want to spend time with you. We promised to stay in touch during college and call each other once a week, but that never happened. We were both busy, but we should have tried harder to make it work. My life fell apart that semester and I needed you, but I didn't know how to tell you. We still texted, but not like we used to, and I was too afraid to tell you what I was going through. I'm sorry for pushing you away, but it's hard for me to let my closest friends see me so broken up. Back in April I was having a nervous breakdown and I blocked people's numbers in my phone because I needed space to compose myself for a day or two, but then I forgot to unblock you, I never received those texts, and I was too embarrassed to text you to explain why I blocked you. I'm so sorry. I should have texted earlier and now I feel like it's too late, but I do miss you. I miss knowing what's going on in your life, I miss posting random photos of use and staying up too late watching "Angus, Thongs, and Perfect Snogging." I miss our Chevy’s dates and you eating all my fruit snacks. I miss texting each other asking how to respond to something a boy said. I miss our plans for our weddings, and you planning to act out that scene from "Bridesmaids." You can blame me for this, because I pushed you away, but I wish you’d come back. This entire summer I've been debating texting you, but I just don’t know how. I’m sorry I had to explain myself like this and maybe you don’t believe me, but I swear on Harry Styles’ life it’s true. I want to fix things, but maybe you don’t. Maybe you’ll never read this, and you’ll never know what I’m feeling. But to me, throwing away a five-year relationship away like we are, is stupid. I just want to let you know I’m sorry and I miss 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.
