Love Me, For I Am The Moon

"Find You A Lover Who Loves The Moon. They Will Know How To Love You When You Are Not So Full." - Unknown.

I am not so full right now. I wax and I wane, and today I am waning. As the days pass there is less and less of me to go around. I am simply fading.

However, I don't fret. Why would I? I disappear for a few seasons and like the faithful moon, I am full again. It's a cycle. I learned to forgive it at a young age. Resenting does nothing but burn holes in my soul. So I accept, adapt, and move through the phases of my life.

The emo phase, the hippie phase, the identity crisis phase. I move through them with flair and with grace. Tastefully. Lovingly. Kindly. Despite my many facets, I always return whole and true to myself. I more then like the moon, I am the moon.

I reflect your light in the darkness. I allow you to see the parts of yourself that blind you during the day. I permit you the pleasure of seeing your way through your darkest fears. I am the moon.

You can tell me your secrets. I will keep them safe for you. None will hear them but you and I. The night is sacred for understanding the most intimate and shadowy parts of ourselves. The moon keeps our secrets well hidden and kisses them goodnight. She keeps them sacred and full of love.

Like the moon, and by being the moon, I am full of craters. I am full of hollow holes. Millions of years of crashing and fighting will do that to an ancient soul like mine. But that's okay. I like anything else, accept it and move on. I continue to orbit, unphased by any phase other than my own.

Love me, for I am the moon. I will teach you, it's okay to love deeply, it's okay to look deeper within your soul, it's okay to go through phases, and it's okay to have craters. We all change. We all grow. We all evolve. We all have wounds.

Embrace them, for I am the moon. For you are the galaxy.

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.
