Thank you for helping me realize that I deserve better.

Shoutout To The Guy Who Screwed Me Over
W Dog

To the guy I thought I could change,

When I first met you, I never thought we would have a connection. You were seen as the "bad boy" and I was the innocent, young, and naive girl. I thought since you were older, you would be more mature, but that was not the case. You spent more time out drinking and dancing at clubs while I was waiting at home for a single text back.

I constantly was worrying about you and what you were doing, if you were hooking up with other girls or making stupid drunk decisions. Everyone warned me about you, but I still didn't listen. I was so infatuated with the idea of us and what we could have been, I foolishly ignored all my friends and family.

As time went on, your true colors started to show. Being ignored and left crying, it was clear that you didn't care about me at all. I'm thankful that you screwed me over and left me crying alone. Yeah, of course I was extremely hurt and upset but I just want to thank you.

Thank you for making me wait hours for a single text back. Thank you for going out nightly to party and getting wasted. Thank you for calling me only when you need something or want to hook up. I could go on and on about all the negativity you brought into my life, but there is one positive thing I want to thank you for.

Thank you for helping me realize how much better I deserve. If it wasn't for you, I would settle for other POS guys like yourself. I always thought that I wasn't good enough for a guy like you until you showed me that I'm actually too good for you. Thank you for not letting me change your bad boy ways. Because of you, my standards and confidence have never been higher.

Ever since you left me, I've been trying to find myself and I did. I found the girl I was before getting my heart broken and lied to constantly. I've been focusing on myself and putting myself first for once, and it's the best decision I've ever made. All my life, my biggest fear was being alone. I would jump from relationship to relationship, but not anymore. I realized that I do not need a guy to complete me or make me happy. I learned to love myself since you never loved me. All the energy and effort I put into trying to make "us" work, is now being used to help me become a better person.

I never thought I'd say this, but words can not express how truly thankful I am that you screwed me over.

Best of luck to the next girl who falls for you and your BS sweet talk.

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.

Whether you met your new love interest online, through mutual friends, or another way entirely, you'll definitely want to know what you're getting into. I mean, really, what's the point in entering a relationship with someone if you don't know whether or not you're compatible on a very basic level?

Consider these 21 questions to ask in the talking stage when getting to know that new guy or girl you just started talking to:

Challah vs. Easter Bread: A Delicious Dilemma

Is there really such a difference in Challah bread or Easter Bread?

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.
