An Open Letter To All My Exes

A short note to those who I no longer talk to.

I'm not going to lie. I did like you, I might've even loved you. Obviously, enough to waste my valuable time on someone like you. However, I have since realized that the way you "make me feel" is not good enough anyway. Yes, you "loving me" felt like I was walking on a cloud. Not good enough to continue living the way I was. Your words faded and so did you. And now there is just me.

Making it work.

I never needed you.

I wanted you. That is crucial. I. WANTED. YOU.

I stopped wanting you and you lost value. I lost nothing.

Good luck in life. One day you'll look back and realize you were wrong.

And I am worth way more than you could've ever imagined.

Alright, now that my rant is over... I honestly do want life to treat you well. I want you to understand that things happen for a reason and that just because you feel a certain way doesn't mean everyone else feels the same. No matter how involved we were; even if we only knew each other for a short time, breaking up with you took something out of me. I never wanted to make you hurt, that has never been the intention. I made the decisions I made based on what I thought and still think is best for both of us. Obviously, we don't see eye to eye on that subject.

However, disagreements are a part of life and they help us grow and make something out of the time we are given. I hope that one day we will once again be able to talk to each other without old feelings and possible pent up anger getting in the way. Life goes on. Even if you hurt me immensely, I forgive you and I want someone to come into your life and make you realize the beauty in love and relationships. I hope that you learn from your hurt and your mistakes and become better and happier in the end.


Light and Love,

Ky

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.

Whether you met your new love interest online, through mutual friends, or another way entirely, you'll definitely want to know what you're getting into. I mean, really, what's the point in entering a relationship with someone if you don't know whether or not you're compatible on a very basic level?

Consider these 21 questions to ask in the talking stage when getting to know that new guy or girl you just started talking to:

Challah vs. Easter Bread: A Delicious Dilemma

Is there really such a difference in Challah bread or Easter Bread?

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.
