What I Want My Mother To Know
Sadie Klements

This one is for my mother. Whether she ever gets a chance to read it or not, there are a few things I want her to know. My heart has been torn for months now, and I have lost any hope I had that it will ever change between us.

The last thing I expected was for you to decide one day you didn't want to be my mom anymore. For years, you have caused me so much heartache. I've never been talked about so badly or judged by anyone like I have been by you. I did not make the best decisions in high school but isn't that a part of growing up? All I have ever needed was to know you love and support me despite my mistakes. Not every issue in our relationship has been your fault, but I won't pretend that you are innocent either.

Your behavior has shown me exactly how I shouldn't treat people let alone my own children someday. I would do anything just to hear you love me because I don't even remember the last time you told me. I'm not positive the damage done can ever be turned around as it has gotten this far. As much as I hate to admit it, we are better off without one another right now. I was never prepared to take on this crazy life without my mom and I will always want you to be there.

No matter what has happened, I love you more than you can ever imagine and I'm so proud of all that you've done for yourself and your kids to have a good life. You are a very strong woman and I admire the things you did as a single mom of two kids to be successful. You've had more than your fair share of hard times and I only want you to be happy. I hope you will cherish our memories as much as I do. I will forever be grateful for everything you've done for me. I wish you the best in all that you do.

From,

Your daughter

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.
