What It's Like Seeing You Flirt With Him
Kayla Hayes

You don’t mean to do it. It’s never intentional. It’s just how you are. You know how I feel but you don’t feel the same about him. You don’t want to hurt me but it seems like you always do. It’s hard to care about someone. While you watch your friend unknowingly throw herself at him. A friendship where you’ve fallen in love is hard.

The thought of losing the friend over your feelings can be difficult. What hurts the most is seeing a friend all over them. She knows you care for him. She just doesn’t know it hurts when she hugs him, rest her arm on him or anything else. Guess what though, it hurts.

Your friend and he will see each other and hug. When you hug him, he goes stiff and claims he doesn’t like to be touched. Why though? Why is it weird for you to hug him and not her? It’s always like this, you see him hug other girls and he never hugs you and it hurts. It’s not just even him, it’s her.

The girl who is your best friend... You kept your secrets to yourself because you thought she cared for him. One night, you tell your friend about your feelings. Then you apologize and tell her she is good for him. She’s perfect and that’s what he deserves. She reassures you that she doesn’t like him causing you more pain.

She flashes a smile and throws her hair the right way making him melt. He always talks about how wonderful and beautiful she is. But you know she leads him on with unintentional empty gestures. These gestures cause you and him pain. He feels pain because he was lead on. The pain you feel is wishing to be in her position. You also don’t understand why he doesn’t like you. You are the one that checks on him, cares for him when he is sick, and checks to see he achieves his goals. You either make a move or move on.

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.
