Heartbreak Beat

A broken heart can come from more than an ended relationship.

Heartbreak Beat
Asia Folch

You always think you're over a situation until you see something to remind you that you aren't. A cute picture on Instagram, a story post, a small nose scrunch, literally anything. You can get through your days without thinking about them, but as soon as you do, you realize that there's a little leftover from the great time you guys had.

Being heartbroken comes in stages, with highs and lows, with bittersweetness and just plain sadness. When simple conversations stir this anxious feeling to see if they've already moved on or if they're mad at you. Looking at them now through a narrow lens, trying to act as if everything is still normal when you know damn well there is a shift in the air.

Friendships will outlast everything if they are meant to be. It doesn't mean it won't take work, but they will last. You can have a broken heart over a friend, romantic or not. It stings when you feel that one person is hurt or mad or upset. I don't know how to handle those items. Heartbreak is very real, and that's terrifying.

I don't know what I'm feeling besides worry, anxiousness, and stress. I don't want to lose my friendships, but I have no idea what's happening. I haven't been the most level headed lately, but I don't want to lose anyone else from my life. Heartbreak doesn't stop the heart, it just makes each beat hurt like hell.

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.
