Open Letter to the Friend Who's Apparently Too Good for Me

I think we all went to school with a jock. The guy, or girl that was smart, good at sports, and thought they would go above and beyond all other students. I went to school with one and at one point we were best friends. So this is the open letter to the jock that's apparently too good to be my best friend..

Have Your Voice Heard: Become an Odyssey Creator

You told me everything. I can count numerous times where you would call me and tell me everything your terrible girlfriend did or said. We would talk for hours and text all the time and everyone thought we would get together. I'm not sure when you stopped telling me everything, but you did and we haven't talked since.

You thought you were better than everyone. You didn't always think this. It just happened over time. Maybe it was that horrible girlfriend you had for too long. Maybe it was every time I told you, that you were better than her you thought I meant everyone. You aren't. You were better in school and sports and thought you would go to the best college, and you didn't.

You stepped on everyone. You really thought no one would notice how you used them. Again, you weren't always this way, I just don't know how it got this bad. You threw away all your "useless" friends for stuck up friends. You don't even talk to them anymore..

You didn't leave our town. All you wanted to do was be something. You wanted out of our small town and now you're more stuck than any of us. You are currently enrolled in a community college, but doing all your classes online because you don't want anyone to know.

You not only lost your friends, but you lost yourself.

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.
