Having A Crush Isn't Easy

Having A Crush: Reality Poem
https://www.pexels.com

We all have had a crush or two in our lives. That really cute person who made your heart go boom! boom! and make you feel like it is about to shoot out of your chest at any moment just by being near you. Don't you remember that feeling that person gave you? The butterflies in your stomach whenever you two are in the same room, how tongue-tied you get trying to say just three words to them. How giddy you feel when thinking about them and how you gush about this person to everyone. There is just one little problem in your fantasy, the person your crushing on doesn't even know you exist. You have thought about writing how you feel about this person in a secret love letter but you never have the courage to tell them how you feel. This is the case with many crushes, it is usually one-sided. So I wrote this poem to express some of the struggles of having a crush.


The way you smile makes my heart sing
The way you talk sounds heavenly to me
The way you look is so lovely
The way you walk is so grateful even for a guy
The way you look at me makes my heart skips a beat
The way you make me feel is one of the most amazing feelings ever
The way you may never see my feelings makes me sad

I wish I could tell you how I felt

As I hold this letter tight to my chest

Just spit out "I like you!"

But I'm a coward

Afraid of rejection

Afraid of being the fool

So I keep my feelings seal up

But I smile cause I can still be close to you
Even if its a one-sided love
The way I feel for you is true
I just wish you could feel the same way too
The way I feel about you
I have never regretted it
The way you make me happy
Even without even trying

Or knowing how much happiness you give me

You don't know my feelings

Maybe one day I can unlock my feelings

And share them with you

Once I gain tougher skin

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.
