A Letter To My Boyfriend's Ex
huffingtonpost

I'll start by saying that I don't think that you are a bad person by any means. I think that you have made many mistakes in your past that you need to learn from, however. You were once a huge part of my boyfriend's life, and I respect that.

There are parts of him that he learned from you, both good and bad. I understand how difficult it is to let go of someone that you once loved, and that loved you back. I've been there, it's not fun. However, here's the thing. He's not yours anymore for a reason. I'm tired of this game you play everyday hoping that the things you say will somehow tear him away from me. What exactly are you expecting to gain from this? The pain of hurting someone else and pushing your ex further away? Each and everytime your name pops up on his phone, you look more pathetic than you did before. To him and to me.

Move on.

Find the love in someone else that I've found in your ex that you failed to appreciate while it was there. I appreciate him each and everyday. You had your chances, yet you took advantage of the kind person he is instead. A person can only take so much until they walk away. I'm so glad he made that choice. Go be happy on your own, and stop trying to tear what we have apart. You may feel like I am your "replacement", but no, I am simply someone who is better with him than you were. I am not your enemy, nor someone who is with him for the wrong reasons. I promise to make him feel loved everyday, since I hope that's what you would want.

Now go leave him alone and find the love of your life. He is out there, I promise. Move on.

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.
