Dear momma,

Did you know I was suicidal?

Momma, this isn't a letter of reconcile.

This is a goodbye.

I don't think my life means much.

Momma, don't you agree?

I know when you're around me.

You can smell the insanity.

Let me fade away into your conscience.

Sometimes I wish I never existed.

I mean, look at me.

A useless heap.

If I'm gone,

you wouldn't have another mouth to feed.

Momma, can't you see I'm bleeding?

The constant fights with the Devil

have their penalties.

I've been gone for hours and no one's noticed.

Hiding in a field of flowers,

all withered and dull,

don't you get it?

Momma, I'm the essence of death,

a contradiction of creation at its finest.

Please, momma let me die.

Give it a week and I'll be a distant memory.

Momma, the world will continue without me.

Momma, wouldn't you feel serene if it were wrong.

Sing me another melody before I go.

Momma, I feel The Reaper's scythe on my throat.

My body is getting cold.

My colored skin is becoming pale.

Life is falling apart now.

I was never good at puzzles.

Momma,

these suicidal thoughts talk often,

the whispers in my sheets,

hushed tones with a sense of urgency.

Momma, don't lie to me.

You say you love me,

but how can you love your demons,

vile, twisted beings.

The Reaper has done his work,

yet the world still hasn't stopped spinning.

Momma, it's been days.

Momma, it's been years.

Momma, I've been watching,

and everyone is still smiling.

My hourglass has been shattered.

In the end, no one shivered

No one cried.

No one begged God for my resurrection.

Momma, take care,

you're free of your demons.

Don't you see?

My death was a blessing...

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.

Waitlisted for a College Class? Here's What to Do!

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.
