First off, I’ll start with saying thank you. Thank you for breaking my heart. Matter of fact, thank you for shattering my heart. I wouldn't of wanted to hand something so precious over to anyone else to destroy.

I grew very fond of you in a short period of time. I think it was those eyes, or maybe the way you spoke to me like I was the only girl in the world. All the days where I broke down and cried you sat there and cried with me, all the days where I smiled so brightly you smiled with me, we shared something special. Our first love.

As the years went on I noticed I was the one loving more, the one who put their all in to get not very much in return. I deserved better and always have. Your words were lies. Your hopes weren't the same hopes I had. Maybe you looked at me as just a girl you knew, but I looked at you like you were my gift from above.

I have no resentments about the time we spent together or all the effort I put into you. No, I don't hate you. I don't hate you for being the boy who caused me the suffering of a thousand bricks being dropped onto my chest. I don't hate you for not realizing what we had. I don't hate you at all. Matter of fact, I still love you. Funny thing is I don't have much to love you with considering you broke my heart into a million little pieces.

Love works in a funny way people say, not as funny as our love worked. It worked in a way others may not understand. It worked in a way where I felt as if I had everything, but in reality, I had nothing. I know deep in your heart apart of you did love me, or maybe even still loves me. But you were awful at showing it.

To this day I still am very fond of you. Fond of the person I've seen you become since our times together. I still talk to you almost everyday, it's almost like our time never ended. Like you never really broke my heart. But you did and because of it I am a stronger person. I look at myself and think of the girl laying in her bed under the covers crying her eyes out. Of the girl who wanted to end it all over a boy who was meant to be a lesson not a blessing. I look back at that girl and think "Wow, I will never be that girl again."

I know now that as my life goes on I will meet people who will use their words as a way to fool others. I know now that not everyone is as genuine as they seem. I know now that just because someone says something does not mean they will stick to their words. I know now that you were not what was best for me. I know now that I am worth more.

And all I have to say to you,

is thank you,

and good luck in all your future endeavors and I will always be there by your side when you need me.

Love always with my broken heart,

The girl you let go.

I think the hardest thing about going away to college is figuring out how to become an adult. Leaving a household where your parents took care of literally everything (thanks, Mom!) and suddenly becoming your own boss is overwhelming. I feel like I'm doing a pretty good job of being a grown-up, but once in awhile I do something that really makes me feel like I'm #adulting. Twenty-somethings know what I'm talking about.

I went to a small high school, like 120-people-in-my-graduating-class small. It definitely had some good and some bad, and if you also went to a small high school, I’m sure you’ll relate to the things that I went through.

1. If something happens, everyone knows about it

Who hooked up with whom at the party? Yeah, heard about that an hour after it happened. You failed a test? Sorry, saw on Twitter last period. Facebook fight or, God forbid, real fight? It was on half the class’ Snapchat story half an hour ago. No matter what you do, someone will know about it.

Chandler Bing

I'm assuming that we've all heard of the hit 90's TV series, Friends, right? Who hasn't? Admittedly, I had pretty low expectations when I first started binge watching the show on Netflix, but I quickly became addicted.

Without a doubt, Chandler Bing is the most relatable character, and there isn't an episode where I don't find myself thinking, Yup, Iam definitely the Chandler of my friend group.

Working with the public can be a job, in and of itself. Some people are just plain rude for no reason. But regardless of how your day is going, always having to be in the best of moods, or at least act like it... right?

1. When a customer wants to return a product, hands you the receipt, where is printed "ALL SALES ARE FINAL" in all caps.

2. Just because you might be having a bad day, and you're in a crappy mood, doesn't make it okay for you to yell at me or be rude to me. I'm a person with feelings, just like you.

3. People refusing to be put on hold when a customer is standing right in front of you. Oh, how I wish I could just hang up on you!
