To The Friend Who Didn't Need Me Anymore

"I hope you see this and know that I do not regret any of our friendship. What I regret is how it ended. But for now, I’m off doing my own thing.. and I hope you are as well."

To The Friend Who Didn't Need Me Anymore

For a while I would sit wondering how I could fix things. I was upset that I wasn’t even given the opportunity to fix what we once had. I look back and realize how much of my life was spent making memories that would one day mean nothing to you and it hurts. There are very few things in life that can make you feel as low as losing a bestfriend who you thought would be by your side through everything.

Every once in awhile I will see you tagged in a picture on someone else’s page, or someone will bring up your name, and for that one second, you will feel that pain again. But soon after you will remember how things are and you will forget. I can’t lie and say that every once in awhile, I consider texting you.. or calling you to see how things are. I want to ask if we can fix things, or if you’re ready to talk. But then I look around and see how awesome life is. And maybe.. just maybe.. I don’t need you anymore. I look at all of my amazing friends and see the people who care about me the most. You didn’t care, so why should I?

I never deleted our pictures on my phone because I don’t want to forget all of the amazing times we had growing up. Sometimes when I stumble upon them, it brings tears to my eyes. But again, those are just memories. I truly hope that things are going well for you and that life is everything you’ve hoped it would be. But I also wish you knew that you didn’t win. You didn’t take anything from me, other than your friendship. I’m fine. And I have found amazing friends that would never do that to me. So there it is. I hope you see this and know that I do not regret any of our friendship. What I regret is how it ended. But for now, I’m off doing my own thing.. and I hope you are as well.

Summer: a time (usually) free from school work and a time to relax with your friends and family. Maybe you go on a vacation or maybe you work all summer, but the time off really does help. When you're in college you become super close with so many people it's hard to think that you won't see many of them for three months. But, then you get that text saying, "Hey, clear your schedule next weekend, I'm coming up" and you begin to flip out. Here are the emotions you go through as your best friend makes her trip to your house.

Winter break is over, we're all back at our respective colleges, and the first week of classes is underway. This is a little bit how that week tends to go.

The professor starts to go over something more than the syllabus

You get homework assigned on the first day of class

There are multiple group projects on the syllabus

You learn attendance is mandatory and will be taken every class

Professor starts chatting about their personal life and what inspired them to teach this class

Participation is mandatory and you have to play "icebreaker games"

Everybody is going out because its 'syllabus week' but you're laying in bed watching Grey's Anatomy

Looking outside anytime past 8 PM every night of this week

Nobody actually has any idea what's happening this entire week

Syllabus week is over and you realize you actually have to try now...or not

Now it's time to get back into the REAL swing of things. Second semester is really here and we all have to deal with it.

Whether you specialized in ringing people up or preparing the food, if you worked at Panera Bread it holds a special place in your heart. Here are some signs that you worked at Panera in high school.

1. You own so many pairs of khaki pants you don’t even know what to do with them

Definitely the worst part about working at Panera was the uniform and having someone cute come in. Please don’t look at me in my hat.

7 Ways to Make Your Language More Transgender and Nonbinary Inclusive

With more people becoming aware of transgender and non-binary people, there have been a lot of questions circulating online and elsewhere about how to be more inclusive. Language is very important in making a space safer for trans and non-binary individuals. With language, there is an established and built-in measure of whether a place could be safe or unsafe. If the wrong language is used, the place is unsafe and shows a lack of education on trans and non-binary issues. With the right language and education, there can be more safe spaces for trans and non-binary people to exist without feeling the need to hide their identities or feel threatened for merely existing.
