A Letter To My Better Half

Each time my mind wanders, it always finds its way back to you.

A Letter To My Better Half
Haileigh Hamer

Isn't it kind of amazing how a person who was once a stranger can suddenly, without warning, mean the entire world to you? What I love the most is when you become so close to someone that you can see parts of each other in one another, you begin to say the same things, steal lines from each other, and even have a similar sense of humor to the point where you can exchange an inside joke with a simple glance because you have such a strong connection with them where you can sit comfortable in silence but also talk for hours and never run out of anything to say. That's what I got lucky and found in you.

It's crazy to think that not that long ago we could have walked by each other and not said a word, now I can't imagine not having you every second of everyday. It's been a long road of heartbreaks for me, making me feel as though I was never going to be good enough for anyone, but then you came along. I don't think I will ever be able to thank you enough for making sure everyday that I know how much you care and how beautiful I really am because it means more to me than you know. You came into my life when I least expected it, I knew who you were but I never thought that you would end up meaning this much to me.

I always find myself in the middle of laughing at your jokes or singing in the car how much you really make me happy. I love having your sense of humor keeping me up at 4am and your kisses at 6pm. I want your sweet forehead kisses, I want you to tell me everything you want to do in life, I want everything you are and everything you have to offer as long as it's you because in the end, it's only you. I wish I could explain your eyes and how the sound of your voice gives me butterflies, how your smile makes my heart skip a beat, and how every time I'm with you, I feel so complete.

I strongly believe if a man really wants you, you don't have to chase him, he'll do whatever it takes to have you. Somehow every single day you make sure I wake up knowing how much you care and I go to be knowing the same thing. You let me be my full complete self around you, and I'm so thankful every single day that I get to call you mine and have you in my life. You make me feel like I can do anything and make me feel as though I'm the luckiest girl in the world. There's something about you I'm scared to lose because I know I won't find it in anyone else and I hope I never have to, thanks for the endless amount of coffee, chicken nuggets, attention, and always being you.

The Daily Struggles of Being a College Commuter
morethanwheels

I've been in college for four years now. I spent half my time as a commuter and half as a resident so I've experienced both sides of the housing spectrum. One thing I've learned comparing the two is that my struggles as a commuter far outweigh anything I went through while living on campus. Commuters have to deal with the problems school brings along with a slew of other issues; I've filled up my gas tank in the worst kind of weather conditions and napped in random places in public more times than I'm proud to say of. This is a list of some of the most challenging aspects of being a commuter.

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!
