To The One Who Does Not Believe In Me

Thank You

To The One Who Does Not Believe In Me
Favim

Thank you for giving me a reason to work harder. Thank you for setting an example of the person I never want to be. You drove me to be a better person. You helped me to realize my potential. Thank you for being the reason I changed.

There will come a day in the future that you will regret every time you doubted me. You will wish you would have stayed by side. I will have you dreaming that you could rewind time. My success will haunt you because I proved you wrong. I hope you look at me and realize I am the happiest I have ever been and it is without you.

You bring me so much anger but I turn that anger into motivation. You give me more reasons to succeed. You drive me to be the best that I can be just to prove you wrong. I don't know what side of me I showed you but it was obviously the wrong one because you have no reason to doubt me. I am hard working and driven, I will break my back to reach success. I am courageous and strong, I will overcome any obstacle put in my way.

I am set on success and nothing less. That is exactly why I cannot allow negative people like you bring me down. I deserve more. I deserve to be believed in. There was a period of time that I let everything you said and did get to me, but not anymore. I have enough confidence in myself to know I will succeed whether you are by my side or not. I believe enough in myself that your word of negativity mean nothing now.

Although I am over caring about anything you have to say, I hope one day you change. I hope one day you stop all the negativity and realize that all people need is support. I hope that one day you become confident in yourself and start spreading positivity.

I know you are hoping I fail, but I hope you succeed. I hope only the best for you because it is not me I feel sorry for, it is you. I found happiness within myself and I found the confidence to look past you but obviously, you have not done the same. I can only hope that one day you find the serenity that I did and let go of all the negativity.

I am worth believing in.

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.
