The day that my best friend gets swept off her feet is going to be one of the scariest and most trusting days of my life.

Not only will she be falling, but she will be waiting for you to catch her.

She has been strong, independent and has lived happily for so long before you. I need you to know that. She is not some girl that strives for a relationship or even thinks of them in any higher regard than most people do. She pities those that are lost in a love that isn't healthy and protects herself against those that are not worthy of her time or vulnerability.

So you lucky man, you are it, huh?

You're the one that's making her change her mind. You are the one that is making her let go of her timidity and clutch onto the hope that you are legitimate in your feelings toward her.

Well, for your sake, I truly hope you are. You are sweeping away my best friend. And that is something you need to understand is both the most terrifying and exhilarating thing to watch happen.

You are making her smile. You are making her feel prettier than she ever has. Your attention and your care is making her relax in her own skin, and you're slowly breaking down those protective walls.

You are going out of your way to make her day better. You are putting her first. I never want you to change that.

This girl deserves the world and more. This girl is the girl I talked through heartache with, and this girl is the person I share my fears with.

I fear you'll break her heart. But I am putting faith in the idea that you wouldn't have any reason to because look at her, isn't she beautiful?

This girl is fearless. She will not put you first, she will strive to always put herself above others. This is courageous and not a flaw, but she sees her success and career as the thing that's going to make her happy and fulfilled. So not ruin that... though her view may change when meeting you.

She is ambitious as hell and she will work until she gets where she wants to be.

She is not looking for her "other half," in fact I think she finds that pretty nauseating (as do I).

She's looking for another whole. Someone that doesn't need her but sticks around anyway. Someone that has their own dreams and ambitions like her own that doesn't question her desires and her work ethic.

You must know that no matter what, she will be scared. She will be scared when she meets you, scared of the butterflies and of the love she starts to feel. She'll be scared to be vulnerable and annoyed if she ever cries over you because she'll be worried you're like the others that made her cry.

Prove that you aren't. If you attempt to, I'll be on your side. (Something you'll appreciate someday.)

Treat her with the respect you have for your mother, love her with passion you would if you had Jennifer Aniston in your arms, and laugh with her like you've known her your whole life.

Maybe then we can both tag-team and get her to realize at some point in her life, the true beauty she holds behind her whole being.

The Daily Struggles of Being a College Commuter

It's not all morning coffees and singing along to the radio.

The Daily Struggles of Being a College Commuter
morethanwheels

I've been in college for four years now. I spent half my time as a commuter and half as a resident so I've experienced both sides of the housing spectrum. One thing I've learned comparing the two is that my struggles as a commuter far outweigh anything I went through while living on campus. Commuters have to deal with the problems school brings along with a slew of other issues; I've filled up my gas tank in the worst kind of weather conditions and napped in random places in public more times than I'm proud to say of. This is a list of some of the most challenging aspects of being a commuter.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!
