An Overthinker’s Letter To Their Lover

You take certain ordinary things and make them extraordinary.

An Overthinker’s Letter To Their Lover

Dear Lover,

My thoughts spin continuously throughout my mind, wondering if I am good enough, strong enough, attractive enough. I create scenarios in my head that actually aren’t even there. I freak out randomly about something you said 14 days ago, then I try to analyze why you said it. I may be difficult to deal with and frustrating as hell, but when I love, I love hard.

You take my world and turn it upside down, challenging me to believe that for once, someone might actually be worth my time, worth sticking around for. You ground me and make me feel calmer and I have no clue how you do it the way you do. You love me, and when you show that love, I feel secure in a way I have never felt with anyone else.

I am so hell bent on believing the worst of every situation because in my mind it is better to be prepared for the worst than to be let down when the best does not happen. I look at things emotionally rather than logically. I am driven by my heart because my head has let me down way too often.

You take certain ordinary things and make them extraordinary to me. Every move you make and word you say, I remember. When I say I love you, I mean I am infatuated. I am in love with you as a whole. You are who I want by my side until you can’t be anymore. I love everything about you and I accept your flaws because I know for a fact that you accept mine.

I get moody and when I do, it can happen at any given second, but you put up with it and love me for who I am. But even with all of my complicated ways, you show me that I can be myself freely, and that is something that very few people have done. I love you and I can’t thank you enough for loving me the way you do.

Xoxo,

An Overthinker

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.
