An Open Letter to an Old Friend

You know if this is about you, so if you're confused just keep reading. How are you doing? I'm doing well just in case you were wondering. We haven't talked awhile, so long that I feel like I don't know you anymore. Do you feel the same way? I wonder that a lot. We had a lot of good times, great times actually. Days spent just talking for hours on end while going from our favorite restaurant to the mall to just driving around town. We told secrets, we ranted, we laughed, and we talked about the future. I don't know what happened. All of a sudden all of that just stopped. I often wonder if it was something I did. Maybe I just wasn't enough for you. I don't want to put the blame on you but yet I don't want to put it on myself because are we really to blame for this? When to people drift apart is anyone to blame? Maybe time just wasn't in our favor and our friendship wasn't meant to last. It's upsetting to think about it like that, but it's something we have to do. I will forever cherish our friendship because as cliche as it sounds, being friends with you changed me and I started to become someone who I always wanted to be.

Maybe you feel the same way to...

I hope you do. I hope You enjoyed your time with me because I enjoyed my time with you. I see that you're doing well. You seem happy and you seem like you're having fun with your other friends. Maybe in the future we will reconnect. I hope you accomplish your dreams. I hope you fall in love. I hope you go all the places you've always wanted to go. Most importantly I hope you live a happy life. I'm not angry our friendship ended, I was upset at first but as time went on I moved on and so did you. You probably expected this to be something negative, but now you know the truth and hopefully you feel better about it. On one last very important note, thank you. From the bottom of my heart, thank you.

Yours Truly,

McKenna

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.
