I hate the way I still can't smile

The way I used to

________________________________________________

Every kiss

Every hug

Every smile

It all felt like Christmas morning as a small child

You were the greatest gift life had ever given me

________________________________________________

I wonder if there is anyone out there

That can stop me

From running

________________________________________________

She thought it was a curse

To feel everything

So deep but

How can it be wrong to love beyond the stars?

_______________________________________________

My biggest mistake is making

My heart feel homeless

Constantly seeking shelter

_______________________________________________

I am lost in someone

Who doesn't want to get lost in me

______________________________________________

My heart was already broken

I hoped you could mend it back together

But you played with the broken pieces

Like a child playing with building blocks

_____________________________________________

I sit tonight in pain

Waiting for a better day

_____________________________________________

I'm sinking when

I so desperately want to fly

____________________________________________

You were my lifeboat

 I drowned

____________________________________________

You planted seeds of love

In the empty spaces

Of my heart

____________________________________________

I wonder if the day will ever come

Where this suffering will end

____________________________________________

I'm going under

And this time I feel there is no one to turn to

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!
