I Appreciate My Girlfriend For These 5 Things And Even More
Rachel Norris

In This Article:

Everyone has a person that accepts and loves them, regardless of the flaws that a person may have, or the problems the relationship goes through. Such a person is a special thing to have in life and should never be taken for granted. I appreciate my person tremendously, even if I don't state so often enough. Each person has their difficulties and I for one am not an exception to that. Putting up with any amount of another deserves some recognition.

1. Accepting my quirks.

Madi Fuertsch

From my need to check for spiders, triple locking cars, to my insane love for Harry Potter. She deals with it and better yet, accept the weirdness I show. There is no judgment for things that may be a bit or unconventional, instead just a loving acceptance that makes me feel loved and accepted.

2. Being there for me.

Mary Cassel

After a hard day or a failed test, there's no one I want to talk to more. Picking me up when I'm down in a supportive and loving way makes them all I want when such days occur.

3. Being supportive.

Rachel Norris

Life ambitions and goals are something we have shared and built up for each other. Each wants the other to succeed in those goals. When I accomplish anything, she is the first I want to share the excitement and achievement with.

4  Constrictive criticism.

Madi Fuertsch

Although I can't say that I actually enjoy criticism, it makes me a better person regardless. Someone else seeing my flaws and being able to point them out in a helpful way is a viewpoint I would never see alone without them. Helping me become a better person is something I can't say I would achieve without her.

5. Quality Time

Madi Fuertsch

Whether it be a lazy night in, making a meal together, or taking a hike out in the nice weather. She always takes the time out of her busy schedule to make sure there is time for me. Even on the weeks when it's exceptionally busy, the time is still made, and it may be a study date instead, Even when studying is what we do most of the time together it's still quality time that I love to spend.

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.
