A Letter To His Next Love

Just because it's over doesn't mean I don't care.

A Letter To His Next Love

I remember when I found out about you. I was hurt and mad, and I'll admit it, slightly irrational. I blamed you for all our problems. But I was wrong. It was never your fault. I remember the first time I saw you. You were sitting there, laughing, your head in his lap, looking up at him the way I had so many times. I remember wanting so badly to hate you, but I never could. I don't. But not for a lack of trying, and I'm sorry. You make him happy, and that's all I could ever ask for. You make him laugh, and his gorgeous smile -- it's somehow brighter with you. I see his face light up when you walk into a room. How could I ever hate someone who makes someone I love so happy. How could I hate that?

Thank you for taking care of him.

He thinks he can handle this world on his own, but I'm grateful he has you by his side, so he doesn't have to.

Thank you for loving him, in a way I never could.

I could not let my guard down with him the way you have. You let him in, no secrets, and no skeletons in the closet. He deserves that.

Thank you for making him smile again.

His smile was my favorite thing, and you brought it back.

Thank you for showing him to love.

What we had is nothing compared to the love you two obviously share. It's once-in-a-lifetime and thank you for giving him that.

Words can't explain how hurt I was to find out about you. It broke my heart. But everyone deserves love. I could never hate you. Honestly, I'm happy for the two of you.

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.
