To the Girl I Thought I Knew Better

You're the only one to blame, sweetheart.

To the Girl I Thought I Knew Better
Kaylee Krizan

I should probably say up front that this is not me reaching out again. I tried to be friends with you so many times, and each time you blew me off like I wasn't anyone you ever cared about. This right here is my letter to you to make sure you know why I will always regret being your friend. I'm not mad at what you did to even start this whole ordeal. I don't even care about that. Life happens and sometimes it's a fiasco and we all make mistakes. What makes me mad is how you acted after.

You sat there, pretending it hurt you, pretending you wanted to make it right. If you wanted to make us work, you would've talked to me. But that's not the end of this. You then decided to pretend I didn't exist. After you stabbed me in the back, you turned your head every time we passed by me. You didn't answer my texts, you made it seem like you were mad at me. Which, let me tell you sweetheart, was an unexplainable thing after you broke every promise someone makes when you say you're "best friends".

Then summer came and I thought we were adults, but I'd forgotten you're as mentally mature as a 10 year old. I asked you to forget this, to put everything behind us so we could be at least civilized, and not this middle school "you don't exist to me" bull you were pulling. You sat there and turned the cards. You turned yourself into the victim when you were the one who went behind my back. You did one of the most unforgivable deeds, and here you were, pretending I hurt you. You had the balls to ask me "why should I trust you when you don't trust me?" This is why I'm mad. Because, after owning up to the fact that you were wrong in this, you went and played the victim to me. The only victim out of this whole situation. And I was fucking willing to forget it all.

But not after this. No. The first thing you should know about me is I hate it when people pretend nothing that happened was their fault like this after they've even admitted they were wrong. So when you sat there and conciously wrote that I was in the wrong, I was done. You lost be completely. After creating a situation that was completely avoidable if you'd just talked to me in the first place, you then continued, after owning up to it, to pretend it wasn't your fault.

Now I just wonder how I didn't see how fake and self righteous you thought you were from the beginning. No wonder you don't have many friends since you literally fuck over everyone you meet. I want to say in this situation, like in most of the ones I've written, that I wish you the best and that you'll learn one day, but honestly I don't. I may be petty for this, but you almost ruined what's been the best thing going for me so many times since then. You made me second guess everything all over again. I know this isn't right, but I hope you know that if this continues, you're going to burn one day. But luckily, not by me.

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.
