Losing My Best Friend

Losing My Best Friend
W-Dog

Losing my best friend was and possibly still is the worst thing that has ever happened to me.

I wish I could describe the pain of losing my best friend.

Now, this person is not dead. We just do not talk anymore. I wish we could. I mean I have tried but this person refuses to talk to me. It has gotten to the point where I have just given up.

To clear something up, my definition of best friend is different from everyone else. I have grown up thinking that my one and only best friend on Earth is my future husband. And with that being said, no, I have never been married but the person I have mentioned above was someone I saw myself getting married to and I believed that we were going to at one point. He became my best friend. I told him everything and he got me to talk about things that I never thought I would talk about to anyone else. He was the one person I looked forward to getting a text from. He was my best friend that I loved deeply.

When I broke up with him before starting college, I was deeply pained in doing it. I didn't want to give him up at all, but it was getting to a point where my mental health got so bad that I had to give him up ( there is a long explanation for it that will probably be discussed in some future article when I feel it is right to explain every little detail). The weeks and months after were filled with many questions , wondering if I had made the right choice. I still wonder that even now. Granted, we have talked some within the past year or two , but we are not the same. College has changed us both and we are still trying to figure out what kind of people we are going to be.

There are times when I wish I could just text him and everything would be the same. He would answer me and I would have nothing to worry about. But, deep down inside, I know I lost my best friend because he needed to be lost whether it be for the rest of our college careers or for the rest of my life. I will never know. I hope he doesn't have to stay lost for the rest of my life but, if it is supposed to be that way, then so be it.

So, best friend, if you are reading this, I still think about you everyday and wonder how you are doing. I hope that God is working in your life as he is in mine, fixing all of my broken pieces. And, if you ever want to talk, you know how to get a hold of me. - HC

College Informations

Most of us have already started the spring semester, and for those of you who haven't started yet, you suck.

It seems like coming back from winter break wouldn't really be a break all things considered, since we all come back to school and pick up right where we left off. We know exactly what to expect, yet we're unprepared every single time.

I'm serious

There are tons of unisex names that are popular: Taylor, Alex, Bailey, etc. There are also numerous names that are used for both sexes, but they’re not seen as “unisex” yet. People are slowly becoming accustomed to the dual use of these names, but for the most part, in their minds they associate certain names with certain sexes. And that leaves those of us with these names in many awkward situations.

You know that all of these things apply to you. You'll just never tell.

I'm an anthropology major, and I love every minute of it. I couldn't tell you why, but I guess there's just something about studying different lifestyles that absolutely fascinates me. But anthropology majors definitely have our weird sides, especially when you go to a school that is filled with mostly Business and Bio majors. But us weirdos definitely have a lot in common, specifically these 16 things.

Everyone has insecurities, that's just a fact. You didn't ask to be born this way. You didn't ask to inherit the one trait no one else in your family has. And you definitely didn't ask to be this ghostly white. But as soon as you've learned to live with it for a while (less wrinkles later on in life, right? right???) someone has to ruin it for you. They have to flaunt they're perfectly tanned body from Spring Break and hold their sun-kissed skin against yours. But I've had enough... here are the things that perpetually pale individuals are tired of hearing.

Being a music major is not all kicks and giggles. In fact, there are days when I question my sanity and doubt myself as a musician. I know I am not the only one going through the struggle, and so here are 13 GIFs that I know my fellow music majors can relate to...
