It's Time to Let Go of You

I've held on for long enough, and it's time to move on.

We can't stop ourselves from falling in love with the wrong person.

We try to force ourselves from falling head over heels for the one person who is the definition of trouble.

How can we stop this cycle when we consider the two of us the dynamic duo, a good team, or Bonnie and Clyde?

We've all pictured in our minds and our hearts who we'd end up spending the rest of our lives together. The one who seems to have his life together and has the drive and motivation to continuously move forward in life. Instead, we're pulled from that picture in our minds, and we've fallen for someone who gives us the rush of adrenaline we crave after a long day. They don't have the drive, nor the patience that everyone needs. Those people that are pure danger, intoxication, and we can't help but love them because we love the rush.

We put our lives on the line for that one person. We try not to get sucked into that mentality, but we all end up doing so at one time or another. We can only put our lives on hold for so long, though.

It's now time to let go of them.

It's time to let go of all the danger and intoxication. It's time to be clean and free of the trouble. Falling in love is so easy, and falling out of love is so hard.

1. Why is Wilson Hall so complicated to navigate? Even as a senior, I still get lost in Wilson. As a freshman, I was warned about the unnecessary complexity of the building, was laughed at by upperclassman for my confused looks on the first day of school and walked and rewalked the whole hall before finding my classroom. #annoying.

Blair Waldorf For governor of new york

What life would be like if the people were led by Queen B.

Blair Waldorf For governor of new york

Cynthia Nixon, a.k.a Miranda from Sex and the City, is running for governor of New York. I think that this would be the best decision that has been made in a while solely based off of the fact that almost no one knows New York like the cast of Sex and the City. This got me thinking about who else would be a good candidate to take over the city of dreams. Then I realized that Blair Waldorf, if she were a real person, would be my number one choice for governor. Here are five reasons why Queen B would be an excellent ruler.
