It's funny, I'd never think by age 22 I would have experienced this much heartbreak.

I'm not talking about boys. I'm talking about the heartbreak you can experience with friends.

To the friends who have come and gone. To the friends who have hurt me or pushed me down. You, too, have broken my heart.

I think my heart broke more from you than any guy or boyfriend I've ever had a relationship with. I've always been warned that girls are catty, petty, or just bitches.

Well, universe, you were right, and I don't think there is any way around it.

This is just a fact. Something we must accept.

I'm sure I fall into one of these categories as well, but here I am able to own up. ADMIT IT.

Ladies,

Past, present, and future friends: you struggle with this truth about yourself. You fear the judgment from others. You're embarrassed. You let your own insecurities stand in the way of your ability to uncover who you really are.

It's not my job to tell you to work on this; you have to want it for yourself. However, it is my hope that one day you will be at peace about all of this, and all of those insecurities will fade away.

I wish this for you. When the next set of people walk into your life, they will be able to see the truest, most pure form of yourself.

You deserve to let the world see you for who you truly are.

I wish this for you. Even though I know I won't be lucky enough to see it for myself.

I wish you embrace this form of you because I know it is beautiful. I know it is elegant.

I'm sorry I will always remember how you made me feel in this moment, but one day I will hear how you have grown. These feelings will start to disappear.

You may not be present right now, but you will still have a place in my heart. I will carry these memories with me always.

I wish this for you.

XO

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.

Dealing with the inevitable realities of college life.

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.
