An Open Letter To The Guy Who Will Love Me Next
crystalcartierphotography.com

Wow, the fact that I am even writing this letter is a lot for me to deal with; it's full of a lot of emotions. Sadness, certainly, because I was so sure the last guy in my life was the one for me, and it absolutely broke my heart when he wasn't. However, it also fills me with excitement -- over our first date, meeting your parents, introducing you to my friends, all of the weirdness that surrounds a new relationship. While I am very excited, I want to start this letter off with a list of reasons why I'm sorry because believe me, after the newness wears off, you're going to need it. However, I'm going to end it with all the hopes that I have for us. I want our relationship to be amazing and I'm praying daily that it is.

I'm sorry for my sassy attitude. I know that it can be hard to handle at times.

I'm sorry that you're having to pick up all the pieces that someone else let broken.

I'm sorry that I have an emotional wall up towards you.

I'm sorry that it's hard for me to express how I feel about you, because I've shut my feelings off for so long.

I'm sorry that I never dress up or wear makeup. I know you'd like to see me not look like a hobo every once in a while.

I'm sorry that I complain about everything -- the weather, my lunch, my hair -- literally everything.

I'm sorry that I'm always so busy. I know that it feels like I don't have time for you.

I'm sorry for all the mood swings you'll endure.

I'm sorry for constantly talking about my job and the world of education because I know you don't care and it gets very boring.

I'm sorry that I'm reluctant to introduce you to my friends and family.

I'm sorry that I always doubt your feelings for me.

I'm sorry that every time I pick a restaurant it's Grouchos.

I'm sorry that I steal your fries when I say I'm not hungry.

I hope that we laugh more than we cry.

I hope we go on adventures together that don't always go as planned.

I hope you love Buster as much as I do. (And that you don't think I'm a werido for being so obsessed with him.)

I hope you always laugh at my lame jokes.

I hope you love Jesus with your entire heart.

I hope that you don't get tired about hearing me ramble about my job or the field of education.

I hope you embrace my family and all their craziness.

I hope you forgive me for all the times that I shut you out.

I hope your mom likes me enough to show me embarrassing pictures of you.

I hope you can remind me to slow down and take it east every once in a while.

I hope you don't get mad at me for being so uptight.

I hope you bring out my carefree side.

I hope I love you to the best of my ability.


All my love (no matter where you may be),

Karly

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.

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.
