When You Lose Your Best Friend, Your Brother
Korey Leach



December 16, 2016.

We sit in Chemistry and we talk with our group. I say something stupid as always, then I see you on your phone texting my best friend who happens to be sitting next to me at the time. I still remember that day, every single f***ing detail. I still remember seeing the look on your face when I knew what you were doing. At 3:45 pm I decided to text you, just to see what would happen. I ask you "what is going on? Did I do something wrong." Five hours later I receive a response. "I need a break" is what you said. I'm crushed and start crying, I try to figure out what to do but I can't. I go through all of our old texts and see what I did wrong but in the end I did nothing. I miss you to this day but I can't change you. I have reached out to you and I never get a response. I try reaching out three times, all I get is "I'm sorry korey, I just don't want to be friends." I lose everything at that point. I start crying, yelling and screaming. I turn around and get into a fight with another friend. I lay in bed for the next three days crying over my best friend, my brother. I still haven't read the text saying that you don't want to be my friend. I apologize for anything I have done, I still love you like a brother. You have a special place in my heart. I will never get over my best friend, we share many things with each other and I hope we can again. I love you Maxwell. I hope everything in your life is well.

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.
