To My Best Friend Who Is Not My Best Friend Anymore, I Hope You Forgive Me

P.S. Not once did I ever think you would be the one to leave.

This poem is attributed to my neighboring ex-best friend whom I pushed and pushed away due to my selfishness. This poem represents who I was, as well as who I want to become to better myself- hopefully alongside her again. Not only were you my bestfriend but you were my other half- I'm crawling on my knees at your door and begging for you to forgive me.


It's been 168 hours since we've been apart and I've slept through a total of almost 100.

Seven days. 168 hours.

All unrequited effort and all alone.

Each of the seven days is a seemlessly broken record- in a sense that my own body walks this Earth, detached from my soul.

So I sit back on autopilot, as I surrender to myself. Hoping that the action of me repenting my sins will give me another chance to have you back.

Hours that stretched into days in which I don't know the name of anymore.

I'm pathetically confused- characterizing myself into a complete damsel in distress.

I'm decompensating in efforts to get help without any answers coming back to me and this pity-party I've created thus far, is all in hope of waiting for you to magically appear back, so you can save me from myself.

Day-dreaming, I find comfort in my bed as I reminisce on

every last,

little

moment.

Every secret and song session;

Every laugh and cry.

Every meal and vacation with each other.

Every hope and wish,

dream and desire;

Along with each and every goal that we use to fully dedicate ourselves to completing, together.

Forever and always, remember?


Forever yours,

Morose

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.

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.
