To the boy who broke my heart...


You told me you'd never do it.

Told me you'd never hurt me.

Told me you'd be with me through everything.

Told me you'd help me work through my shit.

But you didn't.

You decided enough was enough. After a year. You decided my problems weren't going to be yours anymore. You decided you would go off to find better things. When you know one of the better things was me. At least, that's what you always told me.

I cried to you. I cried about how I wasn't feeling myself and how I wasn't in a good place in my life. You sat there and calmed me down and told me how you'd help me and how we'd get through it. Together. But together didn't work anymore. That was two weeks before you decided you weren't happy. Two weeks before you decided to tell me you weren't feeling the same towards me after a MONTH. It was a week after our anniversary.

How does someone do that? How does someone walk into your loved ones room, pack their stuff, and leave? How does someone not call? How does someone not talk to their loved one? How does someone just shatter a heart like that?

I was finally starting to feel happy again. My mental state was getting under control and I was feeling better. I was finally feeling to the point where I knew I was okay. I was happy with my job. I was happy with my relationship. I was happy doing things for you and happy when you did things for yourself. I was getting so happy. I guess I didn't show it enough.

You knew I loved you. You knew I wanted to spend my life with you. And you always told me the same. You always told me I was the one. Every single day. You told me how you'd never break my heart. You told me all these things yet, it seems like none of them are true. Seems like we're back to square one. And that's what hurts.

We're back to a place of not talking and back to a place of being alone and back to a place of just wanting each other's company but not being able to have it.

I guess I'm just waiting for the day you call me yours again.

But I don't know if that day will come.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?

Finals week is upon us. It is a magical time of year during which college students everywhere flock to the library in attempt to learn a semester's worth of knowledge in only a week.

Here is a few signs that you may live in the library, whether you'd like to admit it or not.
