An Open Letter To The Husband I'm Praying For
Giordano's Weddings

Maybe I am not so far off from finding you, or maybe you are a million miles away at this point in time. Either way, I cannot wait to meet you. Or maybe I know you, but have no clue what you will mean to me one day. Every girl always dreams and fantasizes about the day she will find her perfect man, and I cannot wait to sit back one day and connect it all to you. You better know that I waited a long time for you, but I am glad you took your time in finding me. I did not have the easiest path leading to you. There have been upsets, failures, heartaches, and wasted time from every relationship before you. I cannot wait to leave those all in the past and start something fresh with you in my future as my forever.

But just know what I have been through has made me a better, more loving woman for you. I have learned to put aside difference and communicate like adults from an ex who constantly was condescending or constantly yelling. I have learned to not automatically jump to conclusions after numbers of times crying assuming the worst when really everything was fine. I have learned to listen instead of talking over men like I did sometimes in the past. While there were many other things I have learned, the lessons along the way were to prepare me for you. I am sure you learned some lessons on your rough and beaten path to me as well, and I will be interested to hear about them.

I hope you have been praying for me all these years like I have for you. I also know my family has been praying for you as well, so do not let them down. I cannot wait to have a healthy, lasting relationship with you once our paths cross.

Until then, I will be praying.

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
