A tattooed goddess and a football star

They were lovers without hearts

He ignores her at school

But at night they are one

She bashes him in the halls

Yet kisses him in the bed room

They are a strange pairing

Society had told them, they weren't met to be together

They believe this in their minds but their hearts are telling them otherwise

Now don't think they will ever date or marry or anything crazy like that

They will just be that one special moment

The kind of moment you remember for years to come

The kind of moment you wish you followed

You wish you had once more

In years to come they will find someone new

Someone that will excite them at first

But then they will remember the time they spent alone

All the passion they shared

All the smiles and warmth

Wanting to go back to those times once more

But they know it will never happen

They know that if they ever did happen to show their love for one another in a public setting

They would be shunned and deemed as outcasts

There are a few that are in a similar situation who have made it

Who find happiness within one another and shout it from the roof tops for all to hear

But those people see hope in the world

They believe you should love whoever you want

You can be whoever you want to be

But the world is filled with hateful, spiteful, and all around cruel human beings

That will stop at nothing to see the world in front of them burn to ashes

They think that doing this their god will save them and they will rule above all

Both of their parents were like this

The girl’s over baring Roman Catholics

With no desire than to go to church and talk shit about everyone that isn’t like them

And his unwelcoming and unemotional school teachers

But in that moment alone they never thought about how their parents or the general public would act towards them

They only knew that they wanted this little inkling of time would be the happiest time in their lives

He wanted to come out to the world

Yet she was hesitant

She knew her parents’ barley approved of her let alone someone they deemed a “dumb jock”

And his would only see ugliness in her scares and tattoos that hardly covered them

You can’t convince someone who is so unpleased with themselves and humanity that they are beautiful and the world can be a loving and accepting place

Yet you don’t want to show the person who does believe in this beautiful world what you see as truth

She couldn’t tell him that no matter what he does or says, she knew she would never be accepted

But in these moments she could see a glimpse into his perfect life

She could see this so called beautiful and happy world/ life that he would describe to her

But once the moment ended so did this beautiful world

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.

Dealing with the inevitable realities of college life.

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.
