An Open Letter To The Girl Lucky Enough To Tie Down My Best Guy Friend

Talya Parker

Dear *insert name here*,

We haven't met yet, hence the lack of a name, but someday you'll be very important to my best guy friend. First let me say, you're a lucky girl. I have been fortunate enough to have such an amazing guy by my side and you've managed to tie him down.

As you probably already know, he is one of the sweetest guys in the world. Always a text or call away, he was someone I could tell absolutely anything to. He is one of the funniest people I've ever met, luckily understanding my odd and slightly twisted sense of humor. I never have to worry about looking like an idiot or making a fool of myself. I never have to worry about laughing alone about something that probably doesn't make any sense. I have never worried about being myself, no matter how odd, and I know you will feel the same.

However, I must ask a few favors of you. Don't worry too much when he goes quiet, sometimes silence is best. Don't push him to talk when he is content keeping his thoughts to himself. Occasionally your drives will continue with only music breaking the silence, but trust me when I say it's okay to let the quiet continue. I highly recommend leaning back, closing your eyes, and enjoying the breeze from the always open windows.

Don't be afraid to let him know how much you care. Just like everyone at one point or another, there will be insecurities on both sides. Just as I'm sure you'd appreciate them, kind words are always welcome to him. If you're mad don't let him wonder about why or how bad the situation is. Be upfront and honest with how you're feeling or else his mind will drive him crazy.

I promise that you have found one of the good ones. With one of the sweetest, funniest, and most caring guys on the planet by your side, you're one lucky lady. Please cherish and love him because he'll never let you wonder your worth. Enjoy the laughs, the silences, and by far the best hugs you'll ever find. One last thing you should know before I finish this letter: I made a promise to him that I have every intention to keep. I promised him that I would always be there. If you're going to be such a big part of his life you're going to be a part of mine, so I really hope you like bowling!

Sincerely, the girl who loves him nearly as much as you do.

P.S. Let's hope, for your sake, his love of neon pink was just a phase because right now it consumes his wardrobe.

25 Beatles Lyrics: Your Go-To Guide for Every Situation

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Student Life

Waitlisted for a College Class? Here's What to Do!

Dealing with the inevitable realities of college life.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

The Best Lines from the Fab Four

And in the end, the love you take is equal to the love you make

The sun is up, the sky is blue, it's beautiful and so are you

Love is old, love is new, love is all, love is you

There's nowhere you can be that isn't where you're meant to be

Life is very short, and there's no time for fussing and fighting, my friend

He say, "I know you, you know me", One thing I can tell you is you got to be free

Oh please, say to me, You'll let me be your man. And please say to me, You'll let me hold your hand

It was twenty years ago today, Sgt. Pepper taught the band to play. They've been going in and out of style, but they're guaranteed to raise a smile

Living is easy with eyes closed, misunderstanding all you see

Can you hear me? When it rains and shine, it's just a state of mind

Little darling, it's been long cold lonely winter. Little darling, it feels like years since it' s been here. Here comes the sun, Here comes the sun, and I say it's alright

We danced through the night and we held each other tight, and before too long I fell in love with her. Now, I'll never dance with another when I saw her standing there

I love you, I love you, I love you, that's all I want to say

You say you want a revolution. Well you know, we all want to change the world

All the lonely people, where do they all come from. All the lonely people, where do they all belong

Oh, I get by with a little help from my friends

Hey Jude, don't make it bad. Take a sad song and make it better

Yesterday, all my troubles seemed so far away. Now it looks as though they're here to stay. Oh, I believe in yesterday

And when the brokenhearted people, living in the world agree, there will be an answer, let it be.

And anytime you feel the pain, Hey Jude, refrain. Don't carry the world upon your shoulders

I'll give you all I got to give if you say you'll love me too. I may not have a lot to give but what I got I'll give to you. I don't care too much for money. Money can't buy me love

All you need is love, love is all you need

Whisper words of wisdom, let it be

Blackbird singing in the dead of night, Take these broken wings and learn to fly. All your life, You were only waiting for this moment to arise

Though I know I'll never lose affection, for people and things that went before. I know I'll often stop and think about them. In my life, I love you more

Obviously the best superpower.

There have been many lessons learned.

1. The importance of traditions.

2. How to be thankful for family and friends.

3. How to give back.

4. What the word "community" really means.

5. That it isn't about the destination, but the journey.

6. The consequences of making bad choices.

7. To trust people, until you have a reason not to.

8. To be welcoming and accepting of everyone.

9. How to be my own, individual person.

10. How to work for what I want.

11. How to be great at giving directions.

12. How to be humble.

13. To be well-rounded.

14. How to be great at conflict resolution.

15. The beauty of getting outside and exploring.

16. To be prepared for anything.

17. That you don't always have to do it alone.

18. How to be creative.

19. To brush off gossip.

I have never been so thankful to know you.
