Lesson Learned

An open thank you letter to the guys wasting girls' time.

Lesson Learned
whisper

Thank you, for the pain is still there

Thinking back to when I thought I was in love

You weren't

And I swear

I thought we had something

We didn't

I thought it was love

It wasn't

I thought oh we would get married one day

That was nothing

I had planned everything

You were too focused on yourself

Let me put it straight forward

Thank you for helping me realize This was a game

Not the real thing

You did not deserve me

You said I was stupid, too high maintenance, spoiled and immature

But look back on who you were

Now tell me who was immature

Thank you for helping me realize that no one has ever torn me down as bad as you and your friends

Truly you were not the best for me

I wasn't the best for you

But some day I will mean the world to the right person

The person who pursues me, puts his all into the relationship and cares for me over himself

Thank you for helping me realize my worth

You said I was no princess

But I'll tell you this my daddy owns this world

He says I am his

Unless you know this to be true you were never meant to have my heart in the first place

I am a princess

God's princess

Men are put on this earth to treat women as though they are precious

Not relentless

To have my heart you must have my father's first

And that you never had

You said you believed but did your actions show it

Thank you for helping me realize I deserve so much more

I am a child of God, a princess, and made in his image

He loves me and unless you are pushing a woman to the Lord and to eventually make her your wife don't waste her time

Do her a favor and let her go

If your intentions aren't right

For she is more precious than silver or gold

She is not easy to understand, easy to handle, or easy to hold

But she is worth it through it all

mistake
Project Eve

Mistakes are something we all make, no matter how old we get. Most of the time, the mistakes we made are little and sometimes due to something out of our control. Yet, there are mistakes that are bigger than others. Personally, I have mistakes that I wish I could go back and undo. Here they are:

5 Things To Do That Are Better Than Writing A Paper

Don't waste your time trying to write that paper when there are so many more interesting things you could be doing.

Writing a paper is never fun and is rarely rewarding. The writer's block, the page requirement, be specific, but don’t summarize, make sure you fixed any grammatical errors, did you even use spellcheck? and analyze, analyze, analyze.

Papers can be a major pain. They take up so much time and effort that by the end of the process you hate yourself and you hate the professor for making life so difficult. Questions of your existence start roaming in your mind. Am I even cut out for college if I can’t write a single paper? Am I even capable of taking care of myself if I lack the energy to open my laptop and start typing?

sisters
Taylor Hooper

I can barely remember back when I was the only child. Most would say it’s because it is extremely difficult to remember things as a toddler but I would say it's because I was bored until my sister came along. My mother always says how important the "sister bond" is and with every year that passes I realize how right she is. Instead of writing a novel about all of the wonderful things there are about having a sister I decided to list a few of them instead.

It is the time of our lives that we are beginning to enter the adult world and most of us, if not all of us, have no idea what we are doing. It's like starting a video game, but skipping the tutorial. We're all just running around aimlessly hoping we accidentally do something right that moves us along the right path. Now that graduation has just happened, or is right around the corner for some of us, it's time to start thinking about how we are going to take care of ourselves once we are on our own.
