Enchanted By Him

And to think that this was almost over.

New Article World

This week and last week was absolute chaos for me; tests, quizzes, assignments, and this one guy got me trapped in a hurricane. I couldn't do much.

This guy that I've been crushing on the past few years enchanted me. Like all crushes, they usually end. Likewise, my four-year crush on this guy was practically over at the beginning of this week until that one morning.

On a bright and sunny day, I casually sat in the cafeteria in the morning. Surrounded by all my friends, we were having an engaging conversation. We shared laughs, screams, and just pure happiness in our conversation. Suddenly, the bell had rung for first-period warning bell and we slowly began to head off to first. Everything was calm. Nothing suspicious out of the sort. That was until my crush walked past our table. As he walked past, I was laughing at what my friends said. At a quick glance, I noticed him staring off towards my direction and grin a little. Like that, I was caught in his magic.

I sometimes question what kind of sorcery he is playing with to make me crush on him again once more. Almost as if my crush for him has been reborn and renewed, stronger than ever.

But I don't want this. The word "crush" is literally meant to crush my heart. At least for me, it is. I just can't grasp why I choose to purposely break my heart by crushing on a guy who is completely out of my league. I mean, out of all people in the entire school, I choose a guy who is a junior and is completely out of my league. Of course, it's not necessarily impossible. I do have mutual friends with him. But the issue is that I just lack the social skills. Perhaps if I was more congenial I wouldn't be so crushed all the time.

Regardless, I still do not understand. I believe that this has been my longest-lasting crush so far. From sixth grade, it has been a wild ride. Although it wasn't as serious back then, it still meant something in a way.

But there are sometimes I believe that I can't be enchanted towards him. I feel like I give off a sort of creepy vibe towards him. But then again, I haven't done a single thing.

I believe that with my own free will and power, I can get rid of his cursed spell. I can be free of crushes. But for some reason, I also believe that I let myself get caught up in his magical trap. I let myself be enchanted towards him.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
