To The Guy Wasting My Time, Stay Far Away From Me

I want to have things that matter in my life and you don't.

You are charming, easy to talk to, attractive, funny, smart, and everything that I would want in a boyfriend. We spend time together, go on dates, and tend to talk throughout the day. All of this is great, except you have other plans, or better yet, lack there of.

You want to live life carelessly and that is not what a relationship is. You want to have fun until it’s not anymore. You don’t want to commit. You don’t want to think in terms of the future with me. You want what is easy.

As soon as it is anything other than that, you plan to leave. Meanwhile, you will have gotten my hopes high and I will have grown to like you. But just like that, the texting, the company, and you are gone.

Now, I’d say shame on me, but that’s not true. I shared my intentions from the beginning in the hopes of scaring you off before I could even like you, but you stayed and said those were your intentions too. But that was a lie. You took what I had to give and left before a commitment was formed and with all of your feelings in tact. Again I am left wondering if anyone really means what they say when they are talking about relationships.

So to you. The guy who can’t get it together. The guy who fakes it until he gets what he wants. I want you to know that you are a waste of time. You deliberately took up time and space in my life without any idea for an end result, but instead, an escape.

Stay far away from me and any others like you.

I know what I want and have a plans and courses of action. Leave me to be successful while you still wonder about with meaningless endeavors. I care to have things in my life that matter and you don’t. You are taking away opportunities for me to better myself for the right person to come along.

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.

Whether you met your new love interest online, through mutual friends, or another way entirely, you'll definitely want to know what you're getting into. I mean, really, what's the point in entering a relationship with someone if you don't know whether or not you're compatible on a very basic level?

Consider these 21 questions to ask in the talking stage when getting to know that new guy or girl you just started talking to:

Challah vs. Easter Bread: A Delicious Dilemma

Is there really such a difference in Challah bread or Easter Bread?

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.
