And I don't regret it.

I Hooked Up With My Ex

Its been a while but we're here again. In the same bed we fell in love, and the bed we realized it was over in. Now its a new place with clean sheets and the memories of you have been removed it's like you never existed. The only trace of you is your body back in my bed. I know I shouldn't have done it, I see you grinning ear to ear, but I am filled with regret. Your with someone else now. You have a new girlfriend. It's not the casual thing you lie to me and say it is. She has your heart and told you she loves you, but once again you lay in bed with me filled with no regret and no love for either of us. I wish I could tell her, so her heart breaks less then mine, but I don't have the courage. I've have the letter saved in my phone for when I drink enough and I want her to know the man you are., but I knew all of this and somehow still got into bed with you again. Is it because we live in a hookup culture or because we never stopped loving each other? And while you hold me and run your fingers through my hair while I lay in your chest I know it's because theres still love there.

My question is how. How can you have this with two girls? Does she know you still call me, but my phone number is saved as Jim? No because you told her I am crazy or does she know when she told you she was starting to love you at 1 am you called me asking how to respond because you don't love her yet. To her I am sorry, you deserve better, but to you I am gone. I refuse to go from your sun and stars to your dirty little secret. So Im glad I hooked up with my ex because I will never go back again.

P.S, to the other woman if you read this and I hope you do, send me a message and I'll tell you anything.

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.

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.

Whether you met your new love interest online, through mutual friends, or another way entirely, you'll definitely want to know what you're getting into. I mean, really, what's the point in entering a relationship with someone if you don't know whether or not you're compatible on a very basic level?

Consider these 21 questions to ask in the talking stage when getting to know that new guy or girl you just started talking to:

Challah vs. Easter Bread: A Delicious Dilemma

Is there really such a difference in Challah bread or Easter Bread?

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.
