To The Boy Who Didn't Know What He Wanted

You made me feel different.

Falling in love is easy, but loving the right person is hard.

How do you even know if they are the right person?

Is there a right person?

I do not know but I know I thought you were.

I have learned that boys are usually the last to commit. Getting a boy to commit is a huge step. But as far as I am concerned, I am always the last person to commit. When I first met you, I never thought there would be anything between us. I never saw you as more than a friend but the more we talked the more I realized you could be what I wanted you to be. I looked for every reason to walk away but with you it was different. I could not find a reason to walk away. You were easy to be around. You were goofy and maybe a little bit weird but I embraced it. You could say to littlest thing but somehow always got me to crack a smile. It was a friendship I did not want to end.

You were easy to have a conversation with. There was always something to talk about and there is not a thing I wouldn’t talk about with you. The times of silence were something I did not fear. You made me feel comfortable. You genuinely wanted to know me and my heart ate that up.

You are far from a bad person. There are some things I have questioned but something about you gives me hope. We wanted different things and that is okay. I appreciate your friendship. I appreciate your honesty. Commitment is not easy so you took the easy way out. Sometimes I wonder what was going through your head

Were you scared?

Did it go too fast?

Maybe you were just so unsure of what you wanted and I understand.

I do not regret you, I regret wasting my time. I regret letting you make me feel unloveable even for one second, but I also thank you. Thank you for reminding me to not give my heart out so fast. Thank you for not holding back and for always being honest with me. One day, when you mature, I know you will find exactly what you are looking for and make some girl happy.

5 Things To Do That Are Better Than Writing A Paper

Don't waste your time trying to write that paper when there are so many more interesting things you could be doing.

Writing a paper is never fun and is rarely rewarding. The writer's block, the page requirement, be specific, but don’t summarize, make sure you fixed any grammatical errors, did you even use spellcheck? and analyze, analyze, analyze.

Papers can be a major pain. They take up so much time and effort that by the end of the process you hate yourself and you hate the professor for making life so difficult. Questions of your existence start roaming in your mind. Am I even cut out for college if I can’t write a single paper? Am I even capable of taking care of myself if I lack the energy to open my laptop and start typing?

10 Reasons Why Sisters Are The Best

Who could be a better friend than your own sister?

sisters
Taylor Hooper

I can barely remember back when I was the only child. Most would say it’s because it is extremely difficult to remember things as a toddler but I would say it's because I was bored until my sister came along. My mother always says how important the "sister bond" is and with every year that passes I realize how right she is. Instead of writing a novel about all of the wonderful things there are about having a sister I decided to list a few of them instead.

It is the time of our lives that we are beginning to enter the adult world and most of us, if not all of us, have no idea what we are doing. It's like starting a video game, but skipping the tutorial. We're all just running around aimlessly hoping we accidentally do something right that moves us along the right path. Now that graduation has just happened, or is right around the corner for some of us, it's time to start thinking about how we are going to take care of ourselves once we are on our own.

If you’re anything like me, you love a good cup of coffee. My coffee always comes from Starbucks; I refuse to drink it from anywhere else. Over the years, it’s become one of my biggest addictions. So, if you are aware that you’re a Starbucks addict as well, or maybe you need to check to see if you’re an addict, here are seven ways to tell.

It can be overwhelming at times and it’s important to take a step a back and calmly think things over. Maybe gain some perspective. The following aren’t foolproof tips and may not apply to you, but I was able to find success with them (hope you do too!)
