Dear you know who you are,

It's been a little over three years since that dreadful night. The night that was supposed to be a fun and unforgettable outing for one of my best friends. Because of you, it wasn't fun but it sure was unforgettable. She will never forget that night for the rest of her life. It will play over in her head many times through the years to come. That night you took something that didn't belong to you. That night, you raped her.

Sure, you say she was drunk and she consented but we both know that isn't true. If she had consented, then why did you have to leave bruises all over her body as if she was fighting back?

I've had a lot of time to think about what I would say to you if I ever saw you. Odds are, I won't ever see you. So I hope that one day when you're feeling good about yourself, you stumble upon this article and you remember. You remember what a monster you are.

Do you know that she had to go to the hospital? She had to get a rape kit done. Do you know that she flunked out of school because she didn't know how to deal with herself after that night? Somehow thinking that this was her fault. That she must have done something in order to make you do this to her. That's the worst part. Hearing her talk about how she believes that she's at fault for this. Because we both know that she's not.

You took my friend's comfort away. She will always have her guard up when meeting new guys. When she goes out, she will always be weary of new surroundings. You took a piece of her that night; physically and emotionally. A piece that no matter how hard she tries, she'll never fully get back.

I've never had so much hate for someone I've never even met before. But if I could send one person to the fiery depths of hell, it would be you. You don't deserve to go on with your life like nothing ever happened. But, I'm a strong believer in karma and I know that one day it will come back to haunt you.

You are an abomination to all human kind and I wish you zero happiness in the future.

-Your victim's best friend

Now that Halloween is over, it's time to focus on the Holiday Season. Don't get me wrong, I think Thanksgiving is great and can't wait for it, but nothing gives me greater joy than watching Freeform's 25 Days of Christmas, lighting peppermint scented candles, decking the halls, and baking gingerbread cookies. So while we approach the greatest time of the year, let's watch the 15 best Christmas movies of all time.

6 Signs You Are An English Major

There are various stereotypes about college students, most of which revolve around the concept of your major. Unfortunately, we often let stereotypes precede our own judgments, and we take what information is immediately available to us rather than forming our own opinions after considerable reflection. If I got a dollar for every time my friends have made a joke about my major I could pay my tuition. One stereotype on campus is the sensitive, overly critical and rigid English major. Here are six telltale signs you are one of them.

"The Office" is a mockumentary based on everyday office life featuring love triangles, silly pranks and everything in between. It can get pretty crazy for just an average day at the office.

When you were little, your parents probably told you television makes your brain rot so you wouldn't watch it for twelve straight hours. However, I feel we can learn some pretty valuable stuff from television shows. "The Office," while a comedy, has some pretty teachable moments thrown in there. You may not know how to react in a situation where a co-worker does something crazy (like put your office supplies in jello) but thanks to "The Office," now you'll have an idea how to behave ifsomething like that should happen.

Here are just a few of the things that religious Office watchers can expect to learn.

Being pre-med is quite a journey. It’s not easy juggling school work, extracurricular activities, volunteering, shadowing, research, and MCAT prep all at the same time. Ever heard of “pain is temporary, but GPA is forever?” Pre-meds don’t just embody that motto; we live and breathe it. Here are 10 symptoms you’re down with the pre-med student syndrome.

High School And College Sucked All Of The Fun Out Of Reading

Books were always about understanding for me, about learning the way someone else sees, about connection.

High School And College Sucked All Of The Fun Out Of Reading

I keep making this joke whenever the idea of books is brought up: "God, I wish I knew how to read." It runs parallel to another stupid phrase, as I watch my friends struggle through their calculus classes late at night in our floor lounge: "I hope this is the year that I learn to count." They're both truly idiotic expressions, but, when I consider the former, I sometimes wonder if there's some truth to it.
