To The Guy That Broke My Heart, I Never Quite Thanked You

Truth is, until you, I didn’t know what it meant to love someone without limits; then I met him.

To The Guy That Broke My Heart, I Never Quite Thanked You
Unsplah

We fell in and out of time for so many different reasons that I can’t really pinpoint when it all began to click; we weren’t meant for each other. Maybe it was the time that you made me your second choice, or the time you told me you settled because I would always be there, or the numerous times you made me your in-between fling.

Without you I wouldn’t know what it’s like to give my all to someone who doesn’t deserve it. I never got around to thanking you for the trials you put me through. From the sleepless nights thinking that I did something wrong for you to ignore me, for the days spent re-reading our texts just hoping I’d see the text bubbles appear hoping that you were thinking of me too.

Thank you for the moments of disappointment and disbelief because without you I’d still be thinking I was less than. Truth is, until you I didn’t know what it meant to love someone without limits; then I met him.

From our first conversation he just understood me; my quirks, my witty and sarcastic jokes, even my SpongeBob references. From our first conversation, I knew from that point on that my heart was safe. He challenged me to be a better person, loved me, and helped me grow into the woman I’ve dreamt of becoming. Even my flaws were to be loved too.

It’s the little things that make me fall for him without limits, without second thoughts. Maybe it’s the way he calls me baby or darlin', maybe it’s the way he pushes me to strive for greatness, regardless; every day is something new. Loving him is instinctual, effortless, and easy.

Our demise showed me just that I am more than the 3 a.m. “You up?” text, that without trying to be, I am someone’s everything. It took me to places that I thought I’d never come back from. Thank you for trying to break me… without you I wouldn’t be someone’s “kind of crazy.”

Summer: a time (usually) free from school work and a time to relax with your friends and family. Maybe you go on a vacation or maybe you work all summer, but the time off really does help. When you're in college you become super close with so many people it's hard to think that you won't see many of them for three months. But, then you get that text saying, "Hey, clear your schedule next weekend, I'm coming up" and you begin to flip out. Here are the emotions you go through as your best friend makes her trip to your house.

Winter break is over, we're all back at our respective colleges, and the first week of classes is underway. This is a little bit how that week tends to go.

The professor starts to go over something more than the syllabus

You get homework assigned on the first day of class

There are multiple group projects on the syllabus

You learn attendance is mandatory and will be taken every class

Professor starts chatting about their personal life and what inspired them to teach this class

Participation is mandatory and you have to play "icebreaker games"

Everybody is going out because its 'syllabus week' but you're laying in bed watching Grey's Anatomy

Looking outside anytime past 8 PM every night of this week

Nobody actually has any idea what's happening this entire week

Syllabus week is over and you realize you actually have to try now...or not

Now it's time to get back into the REAL swing of things. Second semester is really here and we all have to deal with it.

Whether you specialized in ringing people up or preparing the food, if you worked at Panera Bread it holds a special place in your heart. Here are some signs that you worked at Panera in high school.

1. You own so many pairs of khaki pants you don’t even know what to do with them

Definitely the worst part about working at Panera was the uniform and having someone cute come in. Please don’t look at me in my hat.

7 Ways to Make Your Language More Transgender and Nonbinary Inclusive

With more people becoming aware of transgender and non-binary people, there have been a lot of questions circulating online and elsewhere about how to be more inclusive. Language is very important in making a space safer for trans and non-binary individuals. With language, there is an established and built-in measure of whether a place could be safe or unsafe. If the wrong language is used, the place is unsafe and shows a lack of education on trans and non-binary issues. With the right language and education, there can be more safe spaces for trans and non-binary people to exist without feeling the need to hide their identities or feel threatened for merely existing.
