To the Girl Who Keeps Breaking Her Own Heart

Start realizing that you cannot fix someone.

To the Girl Who Keeps Breaking Her Own Heart
Sarah Braden

To the girl who keeps breaking her own heart, start loving yourself more. Start realizing that you cannot fix someone. Start protecting yourself from inevitable heartbreak because the boy you think you can change or think will change for you isn't going to.

To the girl who keeps breaking her own heart, it's not your fault that he won't love you back. You love with every fiber in your body, but even all the love in the world can't change a person. It may have worked in the Grinch, but the boy you care so much about is not miraculously going to grow a bigger heart.

To the girl who keeps breaking her own heart, remember that you deserve to be the first priority. You are not a second priority, or a third or even a last priority. You are worth more than inconsistent texts and mixed signals. You are worth more than being "just another girl" to him.

To the girl who keeps breaking her own heart, remember that you are too good to be sad over someone who isn't upset at all that they lost you. You have to appreciate and respect yourself before someone else can appreciate you. Don't worry about being without someone, you will be okay on your own.

To the girl who keeps breaking her own heart, to myself, you are sunshine on a rainy day. You are smart, you are kind, and someday you'll understand why things never worked out the way you wanted them to. Someday someone will love you the way you deserve to be loved. But today, you will put yourself first and stop breaking your own heart.

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.

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.
