Dear Woman

He is not for you.

Dear Woman
Dana Damara

Dear Woman,

You are valuable. You shine like a diamond and you should know your worth. You are worth the world, and you deserve just that.

So why settle?

If he doesn't stare at you admirably to take in the piece of art that he has the joy of knowing then he is not for you.

If he doesn't take absolute pride in your heart and the responsibility to not break it then he is not for you.

If he has the audacity to lay his lips upon others that are not yours then he is not for you.

If he feels he must lie to you and hide things because he is afraid of your reaction then he is not for you.

If he constantly makes you feel as if you are nothing compared to any other then he is not for you.

If he lays his hands on you in any other way than to caress your smooth skin then he is not for you.

If he makes you believe that you are not worthy of his love then he is not for you.

If he makes you feel anything less than gorgeous then he is not for you.

If he says things to make you feel as if you are required to commit acts that you do not want to engage in then he is not for you.

If he can look you in the eyes while you are crying and hurting and show no remorse then he is not for you.

Dear woman,

Please know that you are worth so much more than this boy. He is not a man. Stand up for yourself, claim your independence, value yourself. Woman, you are the sun and the moon and he is merely a spot in the distance in your telescope. Woman, wait for the man who is capable of your overwhelming love. Do not let it be dulled by someone who can not take it all at once. Woman, he is not for you.

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.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

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.
