Thanks for picking me up when I'm down.

An Open Letter To The Boy I'm Talking To

Dear ___,

Sometimes it's just nice to have someone to talk to at 2 p.m. or maybe even 1 a.m. Thank you for being that person for me. Thanks for always being there for me whether I was having a good or bad day. I know that at the end of the day I could always go to you and tell you anything.

Everyone says that they love the "talking stage" because that's when you learn the most about the other person. It's exciting to learn so much about a person in a short amount of time. From strangers, to being able to name your favorite color and having goofy pictures of you on my phone. I never thought you would become such an important part of my life.

To be completely honest, I'm really glad that you and I are not rushing into things. I'm glad we are taking the time to be able to figure out what we want in our lives. Sometimes people tend to jump into something serious so fast that they end up not working out at the end. I hope you and I will be different.

I'm so glad that you and I are always on the go. Hanging out with you is probably one of my favorite things to do. I love that we can just sit there and watch Netflix on some nights. (You got me watching shows that I would've never watched on my own.) I also love that you and I can just go anywhere and still make it fun. I love that our group of friends can hangout together and not be awkward. Your sincerity to my friends truly mean a lot and I'm glad that you are becoming friends with all my friends. I knew from the moment I told my friends about you, they were excited to learn more about you.

I'm glad that you know the joy and the frustration that comes with playing golf. Being able to go to you at the end of my frustrating day and tell you about my round or telling you about this awesome shot I hit is honestly so awesome. I love that I can share such a big part of my life with you.

Whatever we may become or not become, I am truly thankful to be able to meet someone like you. You and I clicked instantly but I never knew that we would be where we are today. It's weird to think that a year ago, we were just friends that said "hi" to each other. I would have never thought that I would be this close to you back then. I also never thought I would feel like Edmond was home. Thank you.

Thank you for listening to me rant about the stupidest stuff while you nod your head and smile at me. I can't really tell if you've lost interest in what I'm saying or not because you keep smiling at me. Thank you for picking me up when I'm down, literally and figuratively. Thank you for not letting me go to my sorority stuff alone. Thank you for studying with me late at night. Thanks for going out and eating with me nonstop because I never want to cook. Oops.. butthank you for being my person.

xoxo,
G

birthday party

My birthday has never been my favorite holiday. I've found that I'm more excited to celebrate my friends' and family members' birthdays more than my own. I don't like being the center of attention, so I usually celebrate over dinner with a small group of family and friends. This way, I can enjoy myself naturally without feeling like I have to entertain everyone and make sure they are satisfied. In the past when I've had large parties, I was so nervous that people weren't perfectly content that I didn't enjoy myself at my own celebration.

College Informations

Most of us have already started the spring semester, and for those of you who haven't started yet, you suck.

It seems like coming back from winter break wouldn't really be a break all things considered, since we all come back to school and pick up right where we left off. We know exactly what to expect, yet we're unprepared every single time.

I'm serious

There are tons of unisex names that are popular: Taylor, Alex, Bailey, etc. There are also numerous names that are used for both sexes, but they’re not seen as “unisex” yet. People are slowly becoming accustomed to the dual use of these names, but for the most part, in their minds they associate certain names with certain sexes. And that leaves those of us with these names in many awkward situations.

16 Secrets Anthropology Majors Never Admit To

You know that all of these things apply to you. You'll just never tell.

I'm an anthropology major, and I love every minute of it. I couldn't tell you why, but I guess there's just something about studying different lifestyles that absolutely fascinates me. But anthropology majors definitely have our weird sides, especially when you go to a school that is filled with mostly Business and Bio majors. But us weirdos definitely have a lot in common, specifically these 16 things.

pale girl

Everyone has insecurities, that's just a fact. You didn't ask to be born this way. You didn't ask to inherit the one trait no one else in your family has. And you definitely didn't ask to be this ghostly white. But as soon as you've learned to live with it for a while (less wrinkles later on in life, right? right???) someone has to ruin it for you. They have to flaunt they're perfectly tanned body from Spring Break and hold their sun-kissed skin against yours. But I've had enough... here are the things that perpetually pale individuals are tired of hearing.
