To The One Who Might Get Away

Let me tell you what you mean to me, even if you never see this...

You're one of my favorite people in this world. I have only known you a while, but I do know what feelings are. I have them for you and I have ever since we met. And I know that there is no way you haven't had them for me either.

I will sit around all day and wait on you to text me. I will change my outfit fifty million times before I leave because I know there is a chance that I am going to see you. I will take the same photo ten different times before I send it to you. It's an impulse. You're a disease that I don't mind being infected with.

We have been on a date. We have hung a few other times with our friends too. We talk and everyone else in the room becomes irrelevant. We secretly glance at each other at the same time and just smile. We can't even explain what we are other than probably just attracted to each other or "it's complicated."

You may not know exactly what you want right now, but I do. Because I have known what I wanted the moment I was faced with it. And I have been patient. And I have been heart broken one too many times. But here I am still. Waiting patiently for you to realize what you want too.

I could look at your blue eyes for the rest of my life if you'd let me. I don't think that you really realize how much I dream about 'us' or you in general. You say that you have been dreaming of me a lot lately, but if it was that often, how are you not going as insane like I am right now?

Do you remember the time you told me that I "just seem so amazing?" Or that you "wish you could come over to see me?" Because I do. I remember every conversation that we have ever had. Every heartbreaking one, silly one, angry one, and deep one. Words stay with a girl longer than you could ever imagine.

Chasing your approval may seem like too much, but I don't think that you realize that is what I am doing. Because how could a person be fine knowing that someone cares about them this much without doing anything about it? How could you willingly let me go on like this?

I have watched you with other girls. You don't talk to them like me. You don't look at them like me. And they don't want all of you like me. I want it all. The crazy personality that not many can understand. The looks that could be compared to a god. The voice deep and soothing like a southern lullaby. The jokes about my accent even though we grew up only thirty minutes from each other. All of it.

I am not one to be this pathetic honestly. You have known me long enough to know that. I've been known to cut someone off as soon as they do me wrong. But here I am still waiting. Waiting for something that may never happen. Someone who may never open their eyes to see me standing right in front of him.

Please open your eyes. Please notice my effort. Please quit making me beg for you, wait for you, and dwell on you. Don't be the one I have to say got away from me...

Bob's Burgers
Adult Swim

Bob's Burgers is arguably one of the best and most well-written shows on tv today. That, and it's just plain hilarious. From Louise's crazy antics to Tina's deadpan self-confidence, whether they are planning ways to take over school or craft better burgers, the Belchers know how to have fun. They may not be anywhere close to organized or put together, but they do offer up some wise words once and awhile.

Huffington Post

I think the hardest thing about going away to college is figuring out how to become an adult. Leaving a household where your parents took care of literally everything (thanks, Mom!) and suddenly becoming your own boss is overwhelming. I feel like I'm doing a pretty good job of being a grown-up, but once in awhile I do something that really makes me feel like I'm #adulting. Twenty-somethings know what I'm talking about.

I went to a small high school, like 120-people-in-my-graduating-class small. It definitely had some good and some bad, and if you also went to a small high school, I’m sure you’ll relate to the things that I went through.

1. If something happens, everyone knows about it

Who hooked up with whom at the party? Yeah, heard about that an hour after it happened. You failed a test? Sorry, saw on Twitter last period. Facebook fight or, God forbid, real fight? It was on half the class’ Snapchat story half an hour ago. No matter what you do, someone will know about it.

Chandler Bing

I'm assuming that we've all heard of the hit 90's TV series, Friends, right? Who hasn't? Admittedly, I had pretty low expectations when I first started binge watching the show on Netflix, but I quickly became addicted.

Without a doubt, Chandler Bing is the most relatable character, and there isn't an episode where I don't find myself thinking, Yup, Iam definitely the Chandler of my friend group.

eye roll

Working with the public can be a job, in and of itself. Some people are just plain rude for no reason. But regardless of how your day is going, always having to be in the best of moods, or at least act like it... right?

1. When a customer wants to return a product, hands you the receipt, where is printed "ALL SALES ARE FINAL" in all caps.

2. Just because you might be having a bad day, and you're in a crappy mood, doesn't make it okay for you to yell at me or be rude to me. I'm a person with feelings, just like you.

3. People refusing to be put on hold when a customer is standing right in front of you. Oh, how I wish I could just hang up on you!
