You're here in front of me, yet I don't know you anymore!

A Letter To A Lost Friend

I hope you're reading this, and you know that this is for you!

So here it is.

To my amazing and awesome best friend,

It has been a while since we have been contacted. Although, we were far away, like 10,000 miles, I still called you as my best friend. I felt like you were right here next to me, but I do not feel the same anymore. I feel like you are just a simple friend to me now.

You are physically here, but mentally/emotionally, you are not. I just want to say thank you so much for what you have done to me these past years for being so close to me and being there for me. Thank you for what you have taught me about being alone, love, education and more. I wouldn't expect this to happen but it happened. Life changes; people change. Everything changes, even the climate and even the sea level. I am not afraid to say goodbye to a friend who meant so much to me, because I now understand I will only be with someone who cares about my existence.

I know we're all busy with colleges and everything, but I always have set aside my time to connect and strengthen this friendship all the time, and it didn't seem to happen and grow. You have changed into a different person while you are fading away from me step by step. Every time you talked to me and when we had a conversation, it was not like before. It was like a normal friend's conversation.

Thank you for starting to fade away from me. I have now learned to let go and understand whom I should stick with. I learned that in life, people come and people go, no matter who you are. It is all good, and it is alright. See you later finally means goodbye. My heart drops to the ground to this day when I realize I lost a friend — not only a friend, my very best friend who used to be my partner in crime, a person who is willing to show me what is wrong and right and a person who would always offer me a ride all the time.

I am so glad I saw you these days doing so many great things and finally saw you smiling and enjoying your life more than ever, while I am struggling and trying so hard to see the rainbow and clear sky.

I miss you so much, my friend. I wish you the best of luck and our existence doesn't matter anymore. You have your friends, or even a best friend, who is better than me.

Sincerely yours,

Your best friend

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.
