Secrets And Deceit

I Know What You Did, And I Don't Like It...

Secrets And Deceit
JasonlBaptiste

I remember like it was yesterday. Anywhere I'd be, I'd walk with my head down. I didn't want to look up, I don't have the guts too. I don't have the courage to go up to her and look her straight in the eye. All I am wondering is why? I can't live this life anymore, now that everything is out. I mean rumors spread, what else is new. It’s high school. Everyone feeds off of the new drama until something else gets put on the plate. But these rumors were true and now they know it's about me. And worst of all is I know who is spreading them. I can’t believe it! I just can’t! Who in their right mind would do that! Why! Do I want to understand why? Every time I gaze up someone is looking at me. But not with a smile. They’re giving me such a smug like. I can almost hear their whispers. It makes me sick! They’re sick. Everyone is just sick!

Stop!

I need to relax, I need to be set free. I need to leave, to fly away, to escape this reality, now that it's out. I just can't believe she ratted me out that way! We were best friends for as long as I can remember. I always knew she was kind, helpful, trustworthy, and a person I can talk to when in doubt. She was the ideal friend. You hear that was, she was the ideal friend. But not so much anymore. Now all I see when I pass her by is nothing. Nothing but a lying, cheating, backstabbing, two-faced, low-life loser. She wants to tell people everything about me, fine! Two can play at that game. I hope she knows this means war. But not to worry, I would never stoop down to her level. I’m not that kind of person. I’ll just let life takes it course. Let the paranoia sink in every time she passes me by. Because the next time I see her, I’ll be smiling, and it’s going to kill her that she doesn’t know why. Because after all, I know all her secrets too.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?

Finals week is upon us. It is a magical time of year during which college students everywhere flock to the library in attempt to learn a semester's worth of knowledge in only a week. For some students, it's their first time in the library all semester, maybe ever. Others have slaved away many nights under the fluorescent lights, and are slightly annoyed to find their study space being invaded by amateurs.
