A Letter to The Boy Who Left Me Confused

I don't even know where to begin, there are so many things I think about when I think about us. I think about how I never thought it would go anywhere in the beginning. I think about how for a while I didn't let myself feel anything because I figured it would just end before it became anything. But it didn't end, instead, we had something great and it was going somewhere. At the end of the day, I think the hardest part of this is knowing we were happy and that we were going somewhere but out of nowhere that all went out the window.

When I think of you lately I try to think of the bad, but I can't think of anything. Instead, I think of all the things we didn't do and all the things that were never said. We never got to go skiing, or get sushi, or spend a day in bed being lazy. You never got to spend time with my friends, we never got to go for a hike. I may have gotten to know your favorite color, and your favorite animal yet I don't know the worst thing to ever happen to you or even the best thing. I don't know your family traditions at Christmas and you don't know mine. While we thought we knew each other pretty well, there was still so many conversations to be had. I wish you would've opened up to me in the ways I was starting to open up to you. I was slowly allowing myself to trust because I didn't think you were going anywhere. I thought we had so much more time to get to know each other, that I had more time to ask these questions.

Even though it's been a while I still find myself waiting for you to text me good morning, or tell me about your classes. You're still the person I want to tell about my roommates doing something stupid at one in the morning, the one I wanna talk to about the exciting things happening in my life. And when I think about these things I wonder if you're feeling the same way. I wonder if you're missing me, or wondering how I'm doing. Or was I just the girl who occupied your time?

No matter what I just want you to be happy, and that's the biggest thing. No matter how many questions I still have or all the what ifs. I'll always accept that people and feelings change. The one thing I can't accept however is knowing that you didn't give us enough time. I know one day I'll stop thinking about it all and accept it for what it is, but for now, I'll be here wondering about all the unknowns and trying to make sense of something I don't entirely understand.

Summer: a time (usually) free from school work and a time to relax with your friends and family. Maybe you go on a vacation or maybe you work all summer, but the time off really does help. When you're in college you become super close with so many people it's hard to think that you won't see many of them for three months. But, then you get that text saying, "Hey, clear your schedule next weekend, I'm coming up" and you begin to flip out. Here are the emotions you go through as your best friend makes her trip to your house.

Winter break is over, we're all back at our respective colleges, and the first week of classes is underway. This is a little bit how that week tends to go.

The professor starts to go over something more than the syllabus

You get homework assigned on the first day of class

There are multiple group projects on the syllabus

You learn attendance is mandatory and will be taken every class

Professor starts chatting about their personal life and what inspired them to teach this class

Participation is mandatory and you have to play "icebreaker games"

Everybody is going out because its 'syllabus week' but you're laying in bed watching Grey's Anatomy

Looking outside anytime past 8 PM every night of this week

Nobody actually has any idea what's happening this entire week

Syllabus week is over and you realize you actually have to try now...or not

Now it's time to get back into the REAL swing of things. Second semester is really here and we all have to deal with it.

Whether you specialized in ringing people up or preparing the food, if you worked at Panera Bread it holds a special place in your heart. Here are some signs that you worked at Panera in high school.

1. You own so many pairs of khaki pants you don’t even know what to do with them

Definitely the worst part about working at Panera was the uniform and having someone cute come in. Please don’t look at me in my hat.

7 Ways to Make Your Language More Transgender and Nonbinary Inclusive

With more people becoming aware of transgender and non-binary people, there have been a lot of questions circulating online and elsewhere about how to be more inclusive. Language is very important in making a space safer for trans and non-binary individuals. With language, there is an established and built-in measure of whether a place could be safe or unsafe. If the wrong language is used, the place is unsafe and shows a lack of education on trans and non-binary issues. With the right language and education, there can be more safe spaces for trans and non-binary people to exist without feeling the need to hide their identities or feel threatened for merely existing.
