An Open Letter To My Ex
A Girl Like Me

How you deal with a break up totally depends on the relationship you were in and who you are as a person. Sometimes you're happy to be broken up because it was a toxic relationship, but then there are times when you can't seem to let go. They always say, "I still want to be friends," but that rarely ever works out. The hardest part of a break up is being so close to someone and talking to them everyday and then with time it's been six months and you haven't heard their voice. Sometimes you deal with it by holding it all inside, but you have to let it out sometime, so is there a better way than to write a letter knowing they'll never see it?

Dear Ex,

I saw a picture of us not too long ago and I wish I could say it didn't sting at all, but it did. It's been over six months and the fact that I've lost you completely still makes my heart ache. You were the first person I ever gave my heart to and even though it got crushed in the end, I will forever be grateful that I first gave it to you. We were close before we dated, but even when you drifted away for a time, I waited for you and it was definitely worth it. I fell head over heels for you and I don't regret a second of it.

Looking from a distance, I see that it wasn't meant to be. Maybe it was the timing or maybe it was just us. I'm not sure, but that doesn't mean I'm not thankful. We were good together and I won't ever deny that.

It seems that nowadays, everyone is trying to forget someone, but I don't ever want to forget you.

I don't know what is going to happen in my life nor do I know who I will end up with, but I hope they treat me as well as you did. I don't think I'll ever stop thanking God for our time together and the happiness you gave me. I have to let you go, but you will always be a part of me.

I pray that you're happy wherever you are and that wherever you end up is where you are meant to be. I hope one day a girl comes along and is able to help you and love you. I hope you let her in. Don't ever let a girl make you feel that you aren't good enough because I promise you that you are. I tried my very best to make you feel that you were, but I am sorry if I ever made you feel any less. If she makes you feel less than what you are, walk away. You deserve the world and I hope one day you get it.

Thank you for everything. I wish nothing but the best for you.

Love Always,

Someone In Your Memories

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.

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.
