An Open Letter To The Boy Who Thinks We're Something That We're Not

This is for all that we owe each other, from a thank you to an apology.

An Open Letter To The Boy Who Thinks We're Something That We're Not

Dear person whose names gets me excited for all the wrong reasons,

Let this be right straight to the point. This is how we've always been anyway. You said I hurt you and was unfair to you when I refused to give you a chance. This was when I decided to let it all out in words, because I never broke your heart. I never had a place in it, to begin with. You listened to your thoughts instead of listening to me. You believed the scenarios you created instead of believing me. You were forcing me to be someone that I'm not just to fit your made up image. However, I couldn't. I couldn't be tamed or forced into someone that I'm not.

You texted me almost every night not knowing the fact that I only answered because I was too polite not to. You were too nice that you made it hard for me to stop, even when I asked you not to talk to me again. You said you wanted to be more than just friends. You tried to get into my head in every possible way. Yes, I was lenient, and for this I think I owe you an apology. I'm sorry I didn't make it clear since day one that I want more than you were willing to offer. I wanted more than just a hookup. I'm sorry I confused my politeness with flirting leaving you lost in the process. I'm sorry for leading you on when I was trying to be a good friend, just a good friend. I'm sorry for every time I called you cheesy or creepy. I know I did a lot!

This article is hugely inspired by a Demi Lovato song called Something that we're not. The song made me realize I'm the one who should end this. The first time I listened to it, it hit me hard. If you've never listened to the song before, then here is what you should probably know:

Don't introduce me to any of your friends.

Delete my number, don't call me again.

We had some fun, but now it's gonna end.

But you always made it hard for me to stop.

Now you always think we're something that we're not.

I know this is how I want to end it. I'm in peace enough with my mind now to let you know that I'm ready to end it this way. End it easily and sweetly, because it never started in the first place. At least in real life. We never had a thing in real life.

Best Wishes,

The girl you thought is the one, but she's not.

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.
