To The Guy Who Broke My Heart On Valentine's, I Forgive You

At first, I wanted to punch the guy who broke my heart out of all days, on Valentine's Day. But I actually feel fine and I forgive him.

To The Guy Who Broke My Heart On Valentine's, I Forgive You

We started out as friends. Then my best friend, I trusted him. I told him everything. There was something about him, that made him different than most guys. He wasn't a player. He was a smart, hard-working person who cared for me. Those mid-night calls and times we faced-time were the best. Texting me everyday cause he just was missing me. I just couldn't find something wrong with him.

It all started with a small crush but he didn't know and we were just acquaintances, "Hey, what's up". Corny jokes here and there. Then I was going through hard times with my family and he cared, was the only one who asked if I was okay. It started as a phone call here and there, late-night texting till 3 or 4 am, and we both had to wake up early to work. But we managed.

He became my best friend. He knew things no one else knew about me. He knew my past and I knew his but it wasn't weird. It was nice to finally trust someone and let it out of my chest. We were very close for about a year then he asked me out on a Friday night. We ate in the car and talked. It was like a mini-romantic date. Then it became 2 dates during the week since we both had busy schedules with work and school.

After a couple of dates, we kissed. I can definitely say, what a great kisser but it felt weird in a way because I liked him and he liked me but I felt we did better as best friends instead of a couple. But we continued going out. We did dinner, movies, shopping and just hanging out.

A couple of weeks ago, we decided to go to a hotel to relax and watch a movie so we didn't have to go to a movie theater and out to eat. What we didn't expect to happen, happened. We continued going out.

Valentine's day comes and he calls me, and we have one of our normal conversation which ends with "We have to talk". When a girl hears those words, we get an idea of where this is going. So he picked me up from work and we grabbed lunch. Then he starts telling me if I felt weird too as he did because before we were best friends and it was just perfect. We dated but it never felt like we were actually dating cause we never kissed until after a couple of times going out. He decided that we should go back to just being friends.

For a moment, I wanted to punch him as I stood staring at him. Then looked around as were we eating lunch in a small restaurant with couples surrounding us and being all romantic. Then I realized I became single on Valentine's day but it was for the better. He got a new girlfriend after a few weeks and we talk about it and it's actually not weird. We have certain limits of what he tells me about his girlfriend. Sometimes we just need a best guy friend, then a boyfriend. Or maybe not, who knows at this point.

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.
