A Letter To The Bae Who Doesn't Know He's The Bae
Murray Mitchell

Hello my love,

It's me again. Although our recent interactions have increased significantly, you still don't understand my love for you. Let me begin by saying you looked great in your aunt's post on Facebook from Easter. I'm talking about Auntie Rose, not Auntie Kathy. Also, please let your sister know I loved her shoes. You really should wear the lavender color more often, it looks great with your skin tone. If we were actually a couple, I would be sure to dress you in colors that look great on you.

I noticed you got the cobb salad the other day in the cafe. I flashed you a smile and you waved. Are you getting the salad because you are watching the waistline? Let me say, there is no reason to be doing that. According to my Facebook creeping, you really have slimmed down since 2012.

We spoke the other day. In the library. Do you remember? I was in the line to print and so were you. You asked, "Are you all set?" I think you were talking about being done with the printer but, Bae, I will only be all set once we are together. But, true to form, I kept it casual and just said, "I'm all yours!" I clearly meant to say "It's all yours!" but calm, cool and collected isn't exactly my style. Did you catch it?

I noticed you were printing your four-year plan. That's great. I admire a man with direction. And according to my research, we have a great business program. I am not a business major, but maybe we will be lucky enough to have classes together at some point. We could pass notes and do fun things. Maybe by then, you will know you are the ultimate bae.

But until then, we will continue to glance at one another, flash a smile and wave while not under the influence of liquid confidence. Those Saturday nights we see one another in a hot, sticky party that smells worse than most gyms will be the memories I hold true in my heart. I will continue to make the biggest production ever making small talk about potatoes just to ensure we have something to discuss. I spend my days hoping that one day, our true love can be reconciled.

Ready when you are,

Bae

5 Things To Do That Are Better Than Writing A Paper

Don't waste your time trying to write that paper when there are so many more interesting things you could be doing.

Writing a paper is never fun and is rarely rewarding. The writer's block, the page requirement, be specific, but don’t summarize, make sure you fixed any grammatical errors, did you even use spellcheck? and analyze, analyze, analyze.

Papers can be a major pain. They take up so much time and effort that by the end of the process you hate yourself and you hate the professor for making life so difficult. Questions of your existence start roaming in your mind. Am I even cut out for college if I can’t write a single paper? Am I even capable of taking care of myself if I lack the energy to open my laptop and start typing?

10 Reasons Why Sisters Are The Best

Who could be a better friend than your own sister?

I can barely remember back when I was the only child. Most would say it’s because it is extremely difficult to remember things as a toddler but I would say it's because I was bored until my sister came along. My mother always says how important the "sister bond" is and with every year that passes I realize how right she is. Instead of writing a novel about all of the wonderful things there are about having a sister I decided to list a few of them instead.

It is the time of our lives that we are beginning to enter the adult world and most of us, if not all of us, have no idea what we are doing. It's like starting a video game, but skipping the tutorial. We're all just running around aimlessly hoping we accidentally do something right that moves us along the right path. Now that graduation has just happened, or is right around the corner for some of us, it's time to start thinking about how we are going to take care of ourselves once we are on our own.

If you’re anything like me, you love a good cup of coffee. My coffee always comes from Starbucks; I refuse to drink it from anywhere else. Over the years, it’s become one of my biggest addictions. So, if you are aware that you’re a Starbucks addict as well, or maybe you need to check to see if you’re an addict, here are seven ways to tell.

College involves a whirlwind of emotions, whether it’s from the stress of an assignment (or twenty), or from fighting with your roommate. It can be overwhelming at times and it’s important to take a step a back and calmly think things over. Maybe gain some perspective. The following aren’t foolproof tips and may not apply to you, but I was able to find success with them (hope you do too!)
