Get Off The Roller Coaster That Is Your Relationship

It’s time to end the cycle.

You knew what you were going to get yourself into when you met him. You were about to get onto one of the biggest rollercoasters life has ever given you.

Eventually, you would have to get off, even if you didn’t want to.

You knew you were going to fall for everything he said and listen to him as if everything coming out of his mouth was true. Maybe it was at one point, but after going through all the ups and downs, hundreds of times those meaningful sayings would just turn into words.

As soon as the ride seemed like it was about to end, he would lavish you with all the “I love yous” and would try to convince you that this time around it would be an easier ride and things would be different. Truth is, you fell into the trap.

Every. Single. Time.

You knew that this whole thing was going to be a never-stopping roller coaster, that it would take you through the same loops and turns every time you got on to the same crazy ride. You knew you hated the feeling that rushed through your body every time you went through the loops and falls, but that never stopped you from going back a hundred other times.

Again, just when you were about to get off, he always knew how to make you go just “one more time”.

You thought to yourself, “Maybe another time around would change everything." Truth is, no matter how hard you tried to skip all the HUGE drops, it was the same ride you’ve been on before.

At the end, you would still feel the same shitty way just like all the other hundred times the roller coaster ended. It’s not his fault that you fell for his tricks over and over again. Don’t make another mistake by falling for it “one last time”.

It’s time to end the cycle. Get off the freaking roller coaster.

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.
