A Letter To My Kidnapped Heart

You will be saved, I promise.

Dear Heart,

First of all, I'm sorry. Sorry for everything I put you through because of that one guy. That one guy who has taken you away from me. That one guy who is now playing with you instead of you being with me and holding me together. That one guy has you now and he will never give you back because I still love him and he won't let you go until I stop loving him. I want you back, I need you back, because of another guy that wants you. I trust this guy, I need this guy, but the other guy knows I'm not over him and he wont give you back. He keeps crushing you, and hurting you, with no way for you to escape.

I try to get you back as much as possible, I try to text and call him to give you back, and nothing works! I can never get him off my mind and I'm sorry for that. Every time I try and call him he either ignores me, or says I can't have you back, but in the end we both know he still has you. I am crying every night with an empty hole where you should be, thinking about where I went wrong with giving you to him. Before we were fine, we were great, and I trusted him which is why I had to give you away. I was stupid and foolish in believing his lies for him just to get his hands on you. I still love him and I'm sorry my dear heart, but I will always love him, because he is on my mind 24/7.

I think about you all the time and you are on my mind just like he is as well. I know I need to do my hardest to get you back in me, and I will get you back in time. Love takes a while to heal, and I know you know that as well. We have been through a lot together, and once I get you back I promise I will take better care of you.

I wish I hadn’t put you through all that confusion. You were twisted and hurting this past year. You didn’t need to be. I tried to piece you back together and you kept coming apart. Then things changed. He took you in his hands and was very careful. We both laughed and joked together. He became playful around me. I suddenly felt as if nothing had hurt me before, the pain was nearly forgotten; but I know you had gone through a lot so I didn’t let myself forget completely. Since then I have been cautious with whom I allow you to be given to. I unfortunately love fast and I love hard. That is dangerous for you, I know. You have had to endure so much. I feel completely responsible and wish I could get you back as you were before this year: whole, complete, undamaged. But I believe you had to go through what you did to become stronger. I know now that you can handle anything.

I love you, Heart. I’m sorry for all the confusion and heartbreak you had to go through to get where you are now. It was all to teach both of us a lesson. A lesson neither of us will soon forget. The fact that it worked out in the end is the important part. But I won’t allow myself to reach that near breaking point again, I promise.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?

Finals week is upon us. It is a magical time of year during which college students everywhere flock to the library in attempt to learn a semester's worth of knowledge in only a week. For some students, it's their first time in the library all semester, maybe ever. Others have slaved away many nights under the fluorescent lights, and are slightly annoyed to find their study space being invaded by amateurs. While these newbies wander aimlessly around the first floor, hopelessly trying to find a table, the OGs of the library are already on the third floor long tables deep into their studies. Here is a few signs that you may live in the library, whether you'd like to admit it or not.
