To The Unexpected Person

Sometimes those are the best kind of people.

To The Unexpected Person

To the unexpected person,

You know who you are and that's a good thing. It's a good thing because I'm so happy I met you and the impact you've had on me during my first year of college. I never thought I would meet you, that's what makes you my unexpected person. In two months it will be a year since we've met and made each other happy. Sometimes I wonder what if I didn't go to that party that night? Would I have still gotten to know you? Would I have still kissed you? I don't have to think about that because here we are.

Almost one year. It's funny how people meet. You either like them immediately, hate them, or you just have trust issues. It depends on the situation. You can meet them through friends, see them in passing, or Tinder which was not used in this situation. I could go into detail on how we really met. In passing, then at a party. The rest isn't history but it's between us. I got to know you and your lifestyle and you got to know mine without judgements. To me that's perfect.

I think you can feel star struck by someone even if they're not celebrities. It doesn't always have to be a romantic feeling, it could be someone you just want to be friends with. You were a senior and I a freshman. I was absolutely star struck by you. I kept thinking "why would a senior guy want to even associate with me?" But you did and we continue to be seen with each other to this day. You always tell me that you wish you would've met me sooner but we both know that couldn't be possible. Our little age gap hasn't stopped us because we let it happen.

I can't begin to describe how happy I've been since being together. Even through some obstacles, but that only shows how strong we are together. I noticed that I became more selfless when I'm with you. I learned to love myself. Yes, you were a part of that and that's what makes you amazing.

To my unexpected person: You made me cry tears of happiness, not sadness. You made me eat, not starve. You ruined my lipstick, not mascara. We're in it for the long haul, not just for one night. I have to admit, you are entirely unexpected but I think those are the best people.

Now that Halloween is over, it's time to focus on the Holiday Season. Don't get me wrong, I think Thanksgiving is great and can't wait for it, but nothing gives me greater joy than watching Freeform's 25 Days of Christmas, lighting peppermint scented candles, decking the halls, and baking gingerbread cookies. So while we approach the greatest time of the year, let's watch the 15 best Christmas movies of all time.

6 Signs You Are An English Major

There are various stereotypes about college students, most of which revolve around the concept of your major. Unfortunately, we often let stereotypes precede our own judgments, and we take what information is immediately available to us rather than forming our own opinions after considerable reflection. If I got a dollar for every time my friends have made a joke about my major I could pay my tuition. One stereotype on campus is the sensitive, overly critical and rigid English major. Here are six telltale signs you are one of them.

When you were little, your parents probably told you television makes your brain rot so you wouldn't watch it for twelve straight hours. However, I feel we can learn some pretty valuable stuff from television shows. "The Office," while a comedy, has some pretty teachable moments thrown in there. You may not know how to react in a situation where a co-worker does something crazy (like put your office supplies in jello) but thanks to "The Office," now you'll have an idea how to behave ifsomething like that should happen.

Here are just a few of the things that religious Office watchers can expect to learn.
