To Those Who Walked Out On Me
The Readhead Riter

From the beginning, we were stuck together like glue. We were two puzzle pieces that had finally found their missing links. I was going to be there for you, always. I would take care of you when you were sick, cheer you up when you were sad and make sure you kept smiling. I would celebrate all that you achieved because I was your number one fan. I helped you cram for finals, read your essays, anything you needed, I wanted you to succeed. I wanted to see you reach the top of the world. I loved you so much.

Suddenly, things took a turn for the worst. Fights began. Insults were thrown. Secrets were spilled. Trust was broken. We both got hurt, but you decided enough was enough. But when? When did you decide enough was enough. Had you been thinking it for a while or was it spur of the moment? Were you unhappy from the start or did it just continue to grow? When did I become a rag doll compared to your new pal Barbie? The one question that matters the most to me is, how was it so easy for you? You walked out of my life like it was nothing.

Despite all these questions and all the pain I have felt I want you to thank you. I want to thank you for showing me how caring and good hearted I can be. How supportive and kind I am. You taught me that even if I put in my all, I might not get the same in return. But that is OK. You allowed me to see that; this is who I am, not for personal gain, but because that is the way people should be. You showed me that not everyone has the same heart that I do. That I cannot expect people to care for me as much as I care for them. That is OK, too; it only made me stronger.

It may seem that I am bitter about this. I will tell you, it broke my heart when you left. But I do not regret our time together. I am thankful for all the memories we have made. I will hold onto them. Even though we stopped making them, we had some great times together.

As of now, I hope you are doing well. I hope you are chasing after your dreams and are living happily. I will always love you. I know that sounds odd due to you're the one who chose to leave. But you deserve to be happy, that's what I have always wanted for you.

If by some chance our paths cross in the future, maybe we can try again.

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.

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.
