To the girls who meddle,

At first I would expect myself to be mad at you. Hate your guts. But to tell you the truth, I genuinely feel so sorry for you. The fact that you have to meddle into other girls’ love lives because your own is slowly falling apart is ever so saddening. I wish to ask you why you do it, why you find so much joy in making sure that no girl works out with the boy she wants, but really, I’d be wasting my time as I already know the answer. You’re miserable. Being that, your hope is that no other girl can feel the love and happiness you so desperately yearn for but highly lack. You meddle because the boy you wanted chose someone else over you and that kills you. Instead of allowing him to be happy with someone else, you try to ensure that that never happens. In the midst of feeling sorry for you, and yes, having some anger towards you, I more or less pray for you. I pray that you don’t spend your whole life obsessing over the same boy. I pray that you let him be happy. I pray that you let others be happy. I pray that you find someone who does make you happy so your crime of, what I will call, “serial home wrecking,” can end. Along with praying for you, I wish to give you a piece of advice: grow up. I realize that is a harsh sounding comment and I mean for it to be. I need this one piece of simple advice to get through to you. You need to grow up as you move on through your life. Whether it be going into or out of high school, into or out of college, moving to a new place or switching jobs. Wherever your life takes you, you need to grow up and leave other people and their happiness alone.

I tell you that because if you try to rob the wrong person of their love, you will end up regretting it. Not everyone will just walk away and forget it and let you win. People are capable of infinite things that you may not want to have happen. Happiness, not even in a relationship sense but in all senses, is becoming such a rare possession in today’s society and you have zero, and I mean zero right to take that from anyone. Focus on yourself and your happiness and you will go so much further in your life than when you meddle in other people’s lives for your own sake. Think about others as the world does not evolve around you. You deserve as much as happiness as anyone and yes, you should be selfish about obtaining it, but you cannot steal it to get it and think everything will be perfect after that. Your happiness, your real, earned, passionate happiness will come when you least expect it, I promise you that. Just be patient. If you know you are a girl who meddles, which you should because your actions are impossible to be unintentional, here’s what I’m going to leave you with. What if you fell in love with someone and another girl tried to rip him away from you simply because she felt she could. Would you like that?

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.
