There are no words to express how you keep me sane. And how worthy you make me feel. I still cannot grasp how you have the ability to love someone so much. Or how you can laugh at your own jokes. When sometimes they are not even funny (just kidding).

Your flaws are everything to me. Even when you doubt yourself just know that you always have me. Your ability to love me for who I am is insane. I never even knew it was possible for someone to compliment me so much. It is crazy!

You have loved me from the beginning. All the difficult and hard times. Not only that but joyful times too. Through everything.

I was and still am ready to face anything in life with you.

You have loved me harder when I have been at my absolute worst. You have never once doubted me but lifted me up and motivated me to push myself even further. You keep loving me even when there is every opportunity to call it quits. You hold me when I push you away. And keep holding me when I cry.

Not only have you pushed me, you motivate me to make friends when I feel alone. Even at my lowest, you get me to love myself and make me feel beautiful.

And for anyone reading this, people often say there are hard times in relationships — and they are right. I will not believe it for a minute if someone says things are perfect. Everybody goes through things. Times get rocky and upsetting. But I am here to tell you that relationships are about communication with and commitment to one another.

It is the time and effort you both put into it. Even through the rocky and unbearable times, it comes to show how much stronger you guys can become and how strong your relationship is.

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.
