You lost her.

She Would Have Given You The World But You Lost Her.

You lost her. It wasn't easy for her to walk away, but you lost her.

You lost the girl who would have done anything for you.

You lost the girl who looked at you like you were her whole world. She was the girl who looked at you as though you could do no wrong. She defended you. She stood up for you. She fought for you.

You lost the girl with the kind eyes and strong smile. The one who was going to put you above everyone else. She was there for you when no one else was, any hour of the day, any day of the week. Although her life was a mess and she had bigger things to deal with, she worried about you before herself.

You lost the girl who always had open arms. She was ready to take on the world by your side. She let you in and for her that was a big deal. She was ready to travel and explore with you. To her, the sky was the limit. She thought you agreed but then you lost her.

You started to open up to her. She was someone you could trust. Your family loved her. She babysat your cousins. She celebrated birthdays, holidays, and anniversaries with you. You made so many memories with her, but those weren't enough.

You lost her when you decided that she wasn't enough. When you thought that someone else could be better. Maybe you thought you'd find someone prettier, more interesting, or more compassionate to replace the girl who was giving you her whole world.

But what you lost, was the girl who could be both. She was the girl who could be pretty at the party on Friday and cute and cuddly on Saturday morning. The girl who would make you breakfast in the morning and talk to you about your day.

You lost her when you decided not to fight for her. You took the easy way out and you lost her. You got comfortable and stopped appreciating what you had right in front of you. You got distracted by the things that you wanted and forgot about the things that you needed. But either way...

You lost her.

She opened her eyes and realized that she deserves the world too. She deserves someone to fight for her the way she always fought for you. She deserves someone to look at her like she's someone's whole world. She thought that you were the one who could do that but you weren't so you lost her.

I hope you made the right choose because if not, it's too late. You already lost her.

You lost the girl who would have given you the world.

6 Signs You Are An English Major

There are various stereotypes about college students, most of which revolve around the concept of your major. Unfortunately, we often let stereotypes precede our own judgments, and we take what information is immediately available to us rather than forming our own opinions after considerable reflection. If I got a dollar for every time my friends have made a joke about my major I could pay my tuition. One stereotype on campus is the sensitive, overly critical and rigid English major. Here are six telltale signs you are one of them.

27 Things 'The Office' Has Taught Us

"The Office" is a mockumentary based on everyday office life featuring love triangles, silly pranks and everything in between. It can get pretty crazy for just an average day at the office.

When you were little, your parents probably told you television makes your brain rot so you wouldn't watch it for twelve straight hours. However, I feel we can learn some pretty valuable stuff from television shows. "The Office," while a comedy, has some pretty teachable moments thrown in there. You may not know how to react in a situation where a co-worker does something crazy (like put your office supplies in jello) but thanks to "The Office," now you'll have an idea how to behave ifsomething like that should happen.

Here are just a few of the things that religious Office watchers can expect to learn.

Being pre-med is quite a journey. It’s not easy juggling school work, extracurricular activities, volunteering, shadowing, research, and MCAT prep all at the same time. Ever heard of “pain is temporary, but GPA is forever?” Pre-meds don’t just embody that motto; we live and breathe it. Here are 10 symptoms you’re down with the pre-med student syndrome.

High School And College Sucked All Of The Fun Out Of Reading

Books were always about understanding for me, about learning the way someone else sees, about connection.

I keep making this joke whenever the idea of books is brought up: "God, I wish I knew how to read." It runs parallel to another stupid phrase, as I watch my friends struggle through their calculus classes late at night in our floor lounge: "I hope this is the year that I learn to count." They're both truly idiotic expressions, but, when I consider the former, I sometimes wonder if there's some truth to it.

A book by the name of "The Stranger."

"The Stranger" by Albert Campus touches upon many heavy elements... but not in the way you expect. Although it touches upon the aspects of death and love, it also deals with a hidden philosophy similar to that of nihilism.

The story follows the short life events of Meursault, a Frenchman whose carelessness for his actions eventually ends him in jail and dependent on a jury of people to judge the ethicality of his decision and the punishment that he deserves. He eventually gets the death penalty and all throughout he is nonchalant and almost apathetic towards his situation. He finally snaps when the prison sends a priest to him to absolve him of his sins and to cajole him in confessing to the lord.
