"I Am Sorry, I Can't Help Who I Am."

A letter to the girl who always gets too attached.

Dear You,

I know exactly how you feel. You see a handsome man looking at you and then all of a sudden he wants to take you out. He doesn't want anything right now but would really like to get to know you better. Before you know it, you're hanging out all the time. Your mind is telling you that he must like you with all this time he wants to spend with you. The more time you seem to spend with him, the more attached you get. It is not your fault that you feel the way you do. God made you this way, and you're are perfect. I know guy won't understand and you will feel "unlikable," but you just haven't found the right guy to love you for who you are.

If this has happened to you multiple times and you can't seem to run away from it, don't. You're going to be okay. It is going to be okay. Try not to throw your heart out there so quickly. I know that is hard, but that's really all I can say. Don't be ashamed of who you are. You might get hurt a little more than other girls, but, it is going to be okay.

He is coming, I promise. It might not be right now. It might not be in your near future, but he is out there. He will find you and you will find him. One day you will look into somebody's eyes and tell just by the way that they look at you that you're all he has ever wanted. Someday just waking up to the love your life will be worth it. They say that the best things in life are worth waiting for. Maybe waiting for "him" is really all you can do. Some guy is going to come into your life and changing it forever. Maybe it will be love at first sight. Maybe it will be someone you will least expect. Maybe it will be the weird kid sitting next to you in one of your classes. You will no longer feel all alone and hate yourself for jumping too quickly. He may come in the least way expected in a totally perfect way. He will understand and love you even more for who are, with the flaws included. Your flaws may someday make him love you even more.

Sincerely,

The Girl Who Totally Understands.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.
