Dear My Boyfriend's Ex,

I don't want to come off too strong, but I'd like to start off with thanking you. Thank you for in whatever way losing him. Thank you for messing up so badly that he is no longer yours. As much resentment as I have towards you, I also appreciate that at one point in his life you took care of him for me. You may not be on good terms, and-- for my sake-- I hope you never are, but at one point you loved each other and for whatever reason it ended and thank god because he's mine now and I won't ever lose him. Although I'm happy that for whatever reason you aren't together anymore, I'm also angry because without even knowing it you've wrecked pieces of him. There are certain things he doesn't do because he remembers how mad it made you and assumes it would be the same with me. There are times when he's afraid to even laugh at a dirty joke with his friends because he's afraid I'll get mad at him like you used to. Without even knowing, you've trained him to be afraid to be himself. Slowly but surely I'm breaking that shell, but it's hard for him to understand that it's okay to laugh at a joke or spend time with his friends. He always expects a fight when he is out with them. Although this bothers me, it can't compare to the fact that thanks to you, who for all I know could have been his first love, I plan I being his last which to me is a heck of a lot better. Thanks to you he's mine now and I will treat him right and I will make him happy and I will care more about his feelings than my own. He's the one for me I've known this for some time now, so thank you for letting him go, because I never will. And when the day comes that you look back and you miss him and you regret letting him go, forget about it, because he most definitely is the one you let get away and he's never coming back..

Thank you,

His One and Only

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.

Dealing with the inevitable realities of college life.

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.
