An Open Letter To My Love

Write You A Story
candacejames.com

Write you a story. Where should I begin? Should I start with "once upon a time"? Because our love is a fairy tale. That seems to be the only appropriate way to describe us. No fairy tale ever starts out with a happy beginning. Fairy tales contain terrific stories filled with passion, adventure and excitement that eventually leads to a happy ending; but it takes that long, tough and scary road to get there. Let's just think of the first few months of "us" as a beautiful adventure; and now we're finally starting our "happily ever after".

The way I feel about you is a collection of every simple and complex emotion that the human mind is capable of feeling. You make me happy and sad. You make me envious and proud. You make me angry and confused. You make me feel like I'm driving 105 miles in the pouring down rain then I arrive at a white sand beach and it's a summer breezy day without a cloud in the sky. You make me feel so dangerously in love that I give myself up to you entirely and let you control every part of me. You make me feel so calm and serene that even one drop of rain would put a damper on my time. When we rain, we pour. We let our emotions flood out into one giant storm.

Storms. Those are our fights. And with every fight, I realize that I'm arguing with myself. You and I have this electric bond between us, and when something isn't working, we spark and cause a fire that burns only until we figure out how to put the circuit back together and after we do, we run smoothly together like the perfect machine we are.

What do I think of when I picture you? I first hear your voice. I love when I can hear your mind going on an adventure through all of your collected knowledge. I love hearing about your day. I love hearing your stories. I love hearing about your past. I love your sleepy voice. I love waking you up in the morning and hearing the mumbles you make. I love when we make love and you whisper in my ear. I love hearing you say that you love me. I love the passion in your voice that comes out with every word. Your voice is so strong and it carries through the waves and touches my heart.

But this doesn't even compare to the way you look at me. I've never seen someone look at another person the way you look at me. Your eyes speak for themselves when they travel up and down my body. When you look into my eyes, it's like you're letting me in to see everything, your whole self and I feel a connection. I feel like I am everything to you and I'll remain in your eyes forever.

You asked me to write you a story, but I couldn't find the right words to say that I love you.

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.
