"I Do."

They didn't say it'd be easy, but I never heard anything about it being this goddamn stupid.

"I Do."
Manrepeller

"Men are so goddamn stupid. All they do is talk to hear themselves speak. Then they say something dumb that hurts your feelings and start trying to backtrack when you call them out.

Men are so goddamn stupid. I don't know why I ever thought to get myself involved with boys. I heard my mom talk about how inconsiderate they were, but I guess I had to see for myself.

Well, now I've seen all I've needed to, and I'd like to announce my retirement.

This speech, right here, is dedicated to all 23 of my boyfriends — each and every one of you did nothing for me. I've been thinking about how my life would be without all of y'all. I've come to the conclusion that if I would've put all my efforts into — I don't know, let's just say a job — I could be owning a multi-million dollar business by just about now. Man, you all have really wasted my time. Hey, but I'm the idiot that allowed this... this... nonsense.

That's all this really is anyways, nonsense.

No. 3 broke my heart sophomore year after cheating on me for five — yes, you heard right — five years.

No. 6 just liked how I looked, and that's all he will ever like so that's why he continues to call me even though there will be several years in between when I actually pick up.

No. 16 was supposed to be my best friend before anything else, but then I got "too emotional," so we couldn't be friends anymore. I didn't even care when he ducked out though. There were only 15 before him to prepare me for it.

No. 19 took me on the worst first date ever, yet for some reason, I continued to allow this. Man, I actually fell in love with No. 20 on accident... and now there's you babe.

You're now probably waiting for me to tell you how you are the exception, but you're not the exception.

No. 20 might've been, but you definitely are not. I know this is really early in our relationship, but sitting here next to you, I've just become very uncomfortable, and I've decided I just don't really want to do this anymore. And I don't feel apologetic for it."

She held her glass in the air and shouted,"To being single!" The audience's eyes were gaping, mouths at a loss for words, but she just sat down and started eating her spaghetti, not caring that the sauce was dripping onto her long, white dress.

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.
