I’m Breaking Up With Writer’s Block

It's been a long time coming, but you gotta go...

Dear Writer’s Block,

Forgive my non-cliché intro but it’s definitely you, not me. You see, I have to call it quits. It’s time I hunt for greener pastures and frankly, I feel like you have been weighing me down and dragging me back.

I don’t think we are well suited for each other, due to our inherent differences. You’re slow when I try to be fast. You’re a blank wall when I try to paint a beautiful picture.

They say opposites attract but I feel like the case is opposite for us. I would like there to be an instant and permanent repulsion between us from now on.

We aren’t meant to be together so, I hope you will take the hint and back off. Let me have my green pastures and enjoy the free flow of creativity. I know you may be surprised by this but really, you shouldn’t.

Not many people will be able to handle what you bring to the table.

I hope you have fun in another person’s life and I sincerely wish you guys the best of luck. I really wish that you would leave me alone to carry on with this life without a whisper, shout, message or even email from you.

I would much rather erase all traces of your presence from my life and I hope that is just fine with you. We haven’t been on the same page for a long while now and you know it. I was always sad, and you were just how you always are.

I can’t deal with that kind of stress right now and I am determined to move on from what we had. Please don’t be one of those jealous exes that always hangs around and tries to spoil things. I believe you are better than that. I pray you are better than that.

With luck, we can both move on from the years we spent together and flourish in our new lives. I am not grateful for the time we wasted on each other but since we cannot change the past, we must mend the future. Today.

Goodbye forever, Writer’s Block. Go torment some other writer.

Yours truly,

Newly Creative Writer.

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:

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.

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.
