I'll Never Love Again

Lady Gaga's song I'll Never Love is the best thing for a freshly broken heart. Follow the lyrics and you'll see why.

I'll Never Love Again

The song begins with a beautiful piano ballad before the lyrics come in. The beginning of the song speaks;

"Wish I could, I could've said goodbye
I would've said what I wanted to
Maybe even cried for you
If I knew it would be the last time
I would've broke my heart in two
Tryin' to save a part of you"

I interpret this differently than others might. When I hear these lines, I think about the last time I saw my significant other happy. I think about how it could have been easier if I knew then, how I could have saved myself from complete heartbreak.

"Don't wanna feel another touch
Don't wanna start another fire
Don't wanna know another kiss
No other name falling off my lips
Don't wanna give my heart away
To another stranger
Or let another day begin
Won't even let the sunlight in
No, I'll never love again
I'll never love again"

The chorus goes into what I know everyone feels like after the breakup with the person you still want to spend your life with. Even post-breakup, you want more than anything for that person to come back. You have just lost more than your love, you have lost your life, and your best friend. You just can't imagine doing anything with anyone else and the mere thought of it makes you want to burst into tears. Why would you want to try again with anyone else when your world is gone? Why would you want to go through heartbreak with someone you know isn't right for you when the one who is so right for you doesn't see you the same way you see them? Why would you want to love again?

"When we first met
I never thought that I would fall
I never thought that I'd find myself
Lying in your arms
And I want to pretend that it's not true
Oh baby, that you're gone
'Cause my world keeps turning, and turning, and turning
And I'm not moving on"

Think about the first time you met this person. Did you immediately see yourself falling in love with them or did it take some time? If you are anything like me, you instantly felt love for this person the moment you met. For me, it was a strange feeling because I hadn't experienced that kind of love, ever, in my whole life. It was the feeling that this person would be your best friend for life. I knew from the start I wanted to wake up every morning with them, have kids with them, grow old with them. To have that torn away is like having a chunk of your humanity taken from you in an instant. I just keep pretending it's not real. I'm going to wake up from this nightmare and everything is going to be okay. But the world keeps turning, day turns to night, and begins again. The world may be moving, but I'm not moving on with it.

"I don't wanna know this feeling
Unless it's you and me
I don't wanna waste a moment, ooh
And I don't wanna give somebody else the better part of me
I would rather wait for you"

I hate this feeling. I wish more than anything I could make it go away. But, I can't. Love is pointless, if it's not love with him. I keep looking back on every memory we shared, every laugh we had, every hug and kiss that shut the hustle and bustle of the world out for awhile. It was you and me against the world, and now my world is crashing down. No one else will ever be loved like the way I love you. I'll wait for you, until you find someone else. Until the day you commit your life to someone else, I'll be right here waiting. You're still my everything and it hurts. But eventually, we will meet again. Whether that be together or just as friends.

I still care for you and I always will.

Forever and Always,

I Love You

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.

Top 10 Reasons My School Rocks!

Why I Chose a Small School Over a Big University.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
