A letter to My Person

Because I wouldn’t be me without you.

A letter to My Person

My Person,

I know there are hundreds and thousands of articles that have been written on what makes a best friend and why we’re the luckiest people in the world because we have the best one out there… this isn’t one of those letters.

It’s said that “Everyone you come across is placed there for a reason.”, but I will never understand what I did so good that God decided to place you in mine. You truly are one of my biggest blessings. In my hardest times when everyone decided to leave, you were the one person that stayed.

I really can go on and on and on about how much you have changed my life along with how much you’ve changed me in the process, but I could write a book. You are the most caring person I have ever met. You have such a heart of gold; you put everyone before yourself even when you need to put yourself first. Your happy spirit radiates through a room and you can cheer everyone up just by your presence and amazing attitude. You have made me want to become a better person for not only myself, but for others around me as well.

Thank you. Two simple words that mean more than you will ever know. Thank you for believing in me and loving and caring about me when all I was doing was pushing you away. Thank you for putting me first and always asking if I’m okay (we all know you know how upset I am so fast even if it’s over text message). Thank you for not only asking if I’m okay, but genuinely caring and putting all your effort into fixing whatever the problem is and putting a smile on my face. Thank you for being that person to consistently text me. Thank you for being my backbone, my therapist, the person who keeps me in line, my stylist, and my go to.

I wouldn’t be me without you. I know that no matter where life takes us, we will forever take on the world together one step at a time.

I love you always.

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
