Thoughts of the Depressed
huffingtonpost

Truth be told the lies are here. In the air lies despair. Love and Lust lie on the same bed mediated by trust. Time will tell. Our hearts will rust. Like the wind blowing in the Sahara, a steady gust. Blows away the lies and there lies us. We hide our face from shame and blame.

We curse our brothers name and they do the same. The games we play are not for fun. Fear not for deceit will burn under the blistering sun. Melt away and runneth over, our souls will flow. Deep into the root of the earth, our evils are sowed. Unprecedented precedent so peculiar. We know not what we do so, why are we all so familiar. With our transgressions and trespassing which we all indulge.

The unknowing is known, but we still don't budge. We speak of change what a waste of words. The words are meaningless, a flightless dove. We run from our demons, but we aren't fast enough. We say we've fought them off, but they catch our bluff, grip our throats, press our luck. At that point in time, I'm wondering if I should just give up. Unfortunately, I do because it's a must.

Series of unfortunate events my life story stuck in a paradoxical rut. Speaking of demons, they have taken over again. They are the ones conducting the words from this pen. Illustrating the lies on this page, filling my heart with rage. Their thoughts are dark, a witch's cave.

In my own mind, I am enslaved. To fight them back I am not that brave. The truths they tell can't be taught. Stuck in hell because heaven can't be bought. I'm not talking to myself I'm narrating their thoughts. Fighting them is like questioning God, the brain will rot. My mind is conflicted feeling of distraught. Who do I run when times are tough? Time and time again in this trance I am caught.

Dear Heavenly Father save me from my sins. Wash away my demons with a holy cleanse. Let them not control my soul. Rain blessing upon my life forever more. Let my demons speak for themselves. My tongue can no longer be bought.

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.
