To The Boy Who Had Me Wrapped Around His Finger

You know who you are and let me tell you, you had me fooled for a while. You seemed harmless and you did everything that every other boy like you does to get a girl like me. When I say a girl like me, I mean a girl who cares deeply quickly and it's hard to get me to stop. You saw that and you took advantage of that and that my friend, is where you went wrong. I will admit, I am easily swayed but that is not a synonym for stupid and you thought it was. I am a lot of things but stupid is not on that list. Some things on that list are caring, loyal, dependable, and smart. Those are all things I showed you but you overlooked that and went straight to my body. It's like all I was to you was a body who had a wallet.

You had me wrapped around my finger for a while, and that is why in this case, I can call myself stupid. You took me out, called me all sorts of beautiful, let me meet your family and let me grow to like them. I can still remember the day you asked me to be your girlfriend and I was over the moon with excitement. We were at the beach and I had gotten up to do something and you stood up with me. You made me look at you and the words came out of your mouth and I said yes. I went home and told my mom and my friends and I was just over the moon. For whatever reason, we broke up and honestly, that is the best thing that could have happened to me.

You taught me something about myself. You taught me that I am so much more than my body. You taught me to never let anyone use me for my body and you taught me what to look out for in a boy. You showed me who not to talk to so thank you. Thank you for these life lessons that have helped me find a great guy who likes me for me. If you read this article, I'm not sorry for writing it but I hope you read it and take it to heart. If you don't read this, I hope you treat your next girlfriend with a hell of a lot more respect than you treated me with. Thank you for showing me I am wonderful without you.

When I was learning how to talk, I was taught both Portuguese and English at the same time. In elementary school, I started taking mandatory Spanish classes, which I did well in because of my knowledge of Portuguese. Then in high school, on top of taking Spanish, I also started taking French. Now, in college, already fluent in English and Portuguese, I'm in the process of becoming fluent in Spanish, and I have a standard high school level understanding of French.

I am without a doubt one of those people who refuses to start decorating for Christmas or listen to Christmas music until after Thanksgiving. Unfortunately, Thanksgiving has become an underrated holiday over the years. You barely see any Thanksgiving decorations in stores; it's like they skip right from Halloween to Christmas.

Some universities only get two or three days off for Thanksgiving break. Or, if your university is like mine, you get the whole week off go go home. A whole week off is a long time.
