I Talked To My God This Morning

It was beautiful.

I Talked To My God This Morning
Markus Prime


I talked to my God this morning.

It was beautiful. It was like She heard me mourning in my dreams about things that weren’t really as they seemed...

And I was mourning. For the fantasy within my own reality.

It was like She was watching me trying to sleep. Tossing and turning all night, She was there.

When my eyes got tired of being closed. When pretending became something I cared less about

And I wanted to breathe and feel my reality.

Her hands were there to wipe my tears.

My God was there… I think this is a beautiful thing to share.

My God cares.

My God endures what I endure and doesn’t dare throw any judgment towards me for mourning a dream that manifested in my head and led me to stare at nothing in the air,

In the morning air.

My God loves my hair. My God has the same hair as me

And understands what it means to be viewed and ridiculed as less than.

I talked to my God this morning. But we didn’t really talk. We just shared each other’s presence, purpose, and pain- Sometimes all we can do is live in vain.

My God loves better than me. But She understands that me learning how to love is going to be a difficult journey. Talking to Her in the morning is now necessary.

My God wiped my tears away this morning… and I think this is a beautiful thing to share.



I can’t help but wish you were there.

- Christine Saint

s/o to my God for always being there to wipe my tears.

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.
