We are constantly bombarded with romantic images and life seems splendtasticly magical when in-love. Those types of relationships seem to have such easy connection. That is what we had.

Connections was always easy for us. The moment we started talking led to an eight hour conversation. Nerves were evaporated five minutes in your presence during that first date. It felt as if we'd known each other for years. You had my trust the second Those years spent with you were some of the best memories of my life.

I believe that you were a potential soulmate. Someone who is meant guide me into the next wonderful adventure with the one who will not be afraid to commit. I saw the potential in you for a forever us. But, you were unable to twist potential into reality. You locked your emotions away and at times made me feel worthless.

I came back to you post breakup because I didn't know whom else to turn to. I felt that only you could understand my pain. In us being friends, I still hoped for us getting back together. But, you only wanted me to be your friend and not vice versa.

Thank you for putting me through hell, because it taught me about love, trusting others, and that emotions should not be locked away. You taught me that I don't deserve to be ignored or made to feel less than I am. Thank you for making a fighter out of me.

Part of me feels that if emotional maturity had not been an issue than we would have been perfect for each other. But, I feel in-love with potential and it just didn't work out. That is ok, potential soulmates are meant to prepare us for the one who will always be emotional available.

Anyone who was born and raised in New Jersey (or anywhere really) knows of Bruce Springsteen, whether or not they like him is a whole other situation. I hope that his hundreds of classic rock songs and famous high energy performances, even in his sixties he can put on better concerts than people half his age, are at least recognizable to people of all ages. Love him or hate him (I identify with the former) you have to admit that some of his songs and interviews have inspirational quotes and lyrics.

New England Summers Are The BEST Summers

Why you should spend your next summer in New England.

Marconi Beach

Three years ago, I chose to attend college in Philadelphia, approximately 360 miles away from my small town in New Hampshire. I have learned many valuable lessons away from home, and have thoroughly enjoyed my time spent in Pennsylvania. One thing that my experience has taught me, however, is that it is absolutely impossible to beat a New England summer.

You cannot beat the beach. Believe it or not (which many people may not), New England has a long and beautiful coastline. Most of my high school summers were spent sitting on the Wall at Hampton Beach, getting sunburnt and eating Acai bowls from The Secret Spot. The Wall was the place to be both during the day and at night. We begin our days there with a KB's bagel and coffee, and end them with pizza and ice cream. It’s not a New England summer without that 4 p.m. text from someone, “Who wants to meet at the Wall tonight?” Nighttime is for Tripoli’s Pizza, the sound of waves, and wishes on shooting stars. Wednesday nights are especially important, as those are the nights that Hampton Beach sets off the weekly firework display.
