Letting Go Of The Boy I'm Still In Love With

As Gina Rodriguez said In Someone Great, "I met you when everything was new and exciting, and the possibilities of the world seemed endless. And they still are, for you, for me, but not for us." And thats pretty much how I'm going to sum it up. I met you when I wasn't looking. They say the best things happen when you're not expecting them, and I wasn't expecting you. But you came into my life and you made me that girl that was head over heels madly in love. You had me fully in love with you 9 days after I met you. You made me the happiest girl in the world, and I will always remember that summer, because it was amazing.

If you study psychology like me, you've learned about the "honeymoon phase" of a relationship. And f**k is that the realest theory ever. It's those first 3 months when everything is new and your partner is perfect and everything is like a fairytale. But it ends and reality sets in. You start to realize things about your partner that you didn't before, and everything goes to shit.

Nothing was the same after that perfect summer and the few months following that, we fought a lot. But I loved you through it all, and I still do. You didn't treat me right, and I knew that, but I didn't care because I loved you and I just wanted to be with you. I find myself wondering if I'll ever stop crying over you and being sad, and I just hope that one day I can come back and write about how everything worked out and how I shouldn't have let you hurt me this much.

But for now, I love you. I love you more than anything in this world, and I miss you so much. How do you let go of someone that you're still madly in love with? I'm not sure, but i'm gonna figure it out. Maybe one day when were older and wiser we will find each other again, but for now, I have to let you go.

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?

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.

Top 10 Reasons My School Rocks!

Why I Chose a Small School Over a Big University.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
