I'm Sassy, Not Heartless

You just have to accept it and get over it.

I'm Sassy, Not Heartless

First and foremost, I will not apologize for who I am.

Most of the time I say things that maybe shouldn't be said. Most of those times I say them in a way that people don't understand, or in a way that may offend them. I don't know how I became this way, but I promise you that in many different ways, I am extremely sassy, but I refuse to be known as heartless.

One thing I am proud of is my compassion of helping others. Chances are I will give off a little attitude and act like I'm upset about doing whatever it is, but I am certain that I couldn't be happier to give a helping hand. If someone were to call me or text me, asking for a favor, I do my best to be there. I can never guarantee I will be 100 percent helpful, but I do try. I try because sometimes people need help and helping them will make you personally happy with yourself.

I listen to the problems other people are facing. I may not be the best at giving advice, mainly because I don't know what I'm talking about half the time. I don't like when important people in my life face problems that make them feel weak. No one should ever feel that way. I will be the first to plot against someone that hurts someone special to me. I will be the first to stay up late and watch movies while eating the whole gallon of ice cream if a boy said something stupid to one of my friends. I will also be the first to just sit in silence waiting for the pain to go away. I am always a call away. Many people are not like that. I do care about other people and what they go through and my friends better damn well know that.

The words I say come across as so strong, so intimidating. If I love you, I say I hate you. If I think you're beautiful, I say you're ugly. I will get super pissed at you if you do the dumbest things. And I get frustrated because I know the capability of other people. I want people to grow and for them to see how amazing they truly are. I say whatever pops into my head on the spot and I should feel guilty about it, but I don't. I don't want things to be unsaid. So feel to disagree with me, call me a bitch, talk behind my back, but don't call me heartless, because that's one thing I am not.

I also have feelings. I take things to heart more than most people would. I definitely don't show emotions, but I have some. I cry at "Grey's Anatomy," I laugh at my own jokes, I have road rage when someone cuts me off and I put a whole in the wall because my heart was broken. I get mad at my roommate because she didn't clean the dishes and she always locks the damn door. I let the fact that two of my friends blocked me on Snapchat affect me more than it should. I don't care that I am like that. I don't care that I may not be everyone's favorite person that they want to hang out with. But I do care about other people. I always have.

I apologize if some people can't handle my sass, but it's who I am. You just have to accept it and get over it.

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.
