A Letter To My Guardian Angel

I wish heaven wasn't so far away.

A Letter To My Guardian Angel
Katie Kramer

Death is something that we don’t really talk about but it happens. I, unfortunately, have gone through many deaths in my life some family and some friends but either way it sucks.

I know deep down that they’re all in a better place and looking down on me so here’s a letter to them.

To that person up in heaven:

Hi.

Long time, no talk.

I wanna first start with I’m sorry. I'm sorry I was mad at you when you first died. Listen, it sucked. I felt like you were ripped away from me for no good reason. And now I feel like I’m missing a big part of my life. You’ve missed some big things that I know you would’ve loved being here for. Birthdays, Christmas’, Family Game Nights and more. All these days feel like there’s something missing: You.

As the years went on, I got less angry but it still sucks you not being here. It hits me in waves honestly. I wish heaven wasn’t so far away so I could come see you.

But what I do know is that you are there. You are there watching over me and rooting for me. Even if some days it doesn’t feel like it, I know that you are.

Those days when I do miss you I think of all the memories. All the family game nights, all the holidays, and everything in between. Sometimes a song or two that reminds me of you. It helps me get through

You left us with some good memories that will never be forgotten. I still talk about all your tattoos and tell people that you’re the reason I want tattoos. Thank you for the time you did spend here with us. Thank you for all the people you brought into our lives. Thank you for all the memories.

I love you and I always will

RBF

I'll admit it, I have a condition called RBF or, if you will, Resting Bitch Face.

Anna Kendrick, poor Kristen Stewart, the Queen of England are all life-long sufferers of RBF. Victoria Beckham even made a career out of it! And though it's usually used to describe women, some men are also afflicted. Kanye West is the best example of this.

April Ludgate

Everyone who is in college right now, or has ever been, knows the struggle of pulling in the strings at the last second. It seems impossible, and you have to do a LOT of things in order to assure your future for the next semester.

April Ludgate, historically, is a very annoyed person, and she doesn't hide it. Of all the times that I binged and re-binged "Parks and Rec," her attitude relates more and more to me.

Ask friends of mine to name a quality about me, and one a lot them will point out the fact that I am almost always smiling. I like to laugh and smile -- not to quote Buddy the Elf in April, but smiling is my favorite! It is probably my favorite go-to expression. However, what a lot of people do not see is that I have my down days. I have days when smiling and laughing is a real struggle, or when I have so much on my plate that going out of my way to behappy takes more effort than I have stored in me. Be it a symptom of college and growing up or a facet of life, I cannot always be content.
