To The Friend Who Didn't Need Me Anymore

"I hope you see this and know that I do not regret any of our friendship. What I regret is how it ended. But for now, I’m off doing my own thing.. and I hope you are as well."

To The Friend Who Didn't Need Me Anymore

For a while I would sit wondering how I could fix things. I was upset that I wasn’t even given the opportunity to fix what we once had. I look back and realize how much of my life was spent making memories that would one day mean nothing to you and it hurts. There are very few things in life that can make you feel as low as losing a bestfriend who you thought would be by your side through everything.

Every once in awhile I will see you tagged in a picture on someone else’s page, or someone will bring up your name, and for that one second, you will feel that pain again. But soon after you will remember how things are and you will forget. I can’t lie and say that every once in awhile, I consider texting you.. or calling you to see how things are. I want to ask if we can fix things, or if you’re ready to talk. But then I look around and see how awesome life is. And maybe.. just maybe.. I don’t need you anymore. I look at all of my amazing friends and see the people who care about me the most. You didn’t care, so why should I?

I never deleted our pictures on my phone because I don’t want to forget all of the amazing times we had growing up. Sometimes when I stumble upon them, it brings tears to my eyes. But again, those are just memories. I truly hope that things are going well for you and that life is everything you’ve hoped it would be. But I also wish you knew that you didn’t win. You didn’t take anything from me, other than your friendship. I’m fine. And I have found amazing friends that would never do that to me. So there it is. I hope you see this and know that I do not regret any of our friendship. What I regret is how it ended. But for now, I’m off doing my own thing.. and I hope you are as well.

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.
