Was It Really 'Right Person, Wrong Time' Or 'Wrong Person, Wrong Time'?

We've all heard the saying "right person, wrong time" but what if we looked at it more like "wrong person, wrong time"? I'm telling you there's no "right" person in this world and if a person doesn't want to be with you they aren't going to be and if they do want to be with you, they will fight for you and they will fight to be with you.

Don't let someone tell you it's just the wrong time because that means they are just the wrong person.

Sure, this seems harsh, but truly you've been thinking about it in the back of your head.

Think about it some more, think about how when you try with this person they always say they aren't ready, guess what? Nobody's ever completely ready for something and if you keep on waiting you'll be waiting your whole life. Stop making excuses for the people that don't want to be with you because nobody deserves that.

Why would we make excuses for these people? Because our heart wants them or because we think we need them or because we want them? No, don't make excuses for people that can't decide what they want because in the end you'll be hurt. You may think you're hurting now, but trust me it's for the best.

Stop living your life waiting for the "right person at the right time."

Why live your life for what's "right" when it could be the one person that you actually want? When you do this you're it's just like you're living for the weekend or the summer and you'll be waiting your whole life to be happy.

So, why do we say "right person, wrong time" if it's not actually something we should listen to? Well, we don't like to think that people don't want to be with us, we like to feel accepted and loved and if that person makes you feel that way, then you're more likely to make excuses for them. Also, if it's someone we really want, but they say they can't do it because of X, Y, or Z, then we just take it and we think they'll come back.

But I can tell you the worst thing you can do is wait for a person to come around because nine times out of 10, you'll end up disappointed.

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.
