The story starts out like any other classic romance movie.

Girl meets guy, they talk, it was epic, sparks were flying, and then he finally asked for the number. Girl patiently waits for a text (dare I say a call) and none came. The first day comes and goes, second, third, until she realizes it's the fourth day without any type of contact made. So what does she do?

Get angry and refuse to speak to any guys for the rest of eternity? Of course not but I realized in that moment that no matter what the excuse was, that was IT for me. If your “so called interest” in me was genuine then you wouldn’t have waited to talk to me.

Later, girl goes to grab a bite to eat with her girlfriend. Guess who she sees, “No Text dude!” Funniest thing about this story is the first thing he said was “Yeah sorry I didn’t contact you, I just forgot.”

Seriously? The best part about this story is that it was still in the beginning stages so no hurt feelings or anything.

However, I would like to reclaim my time thank you very much.

Reclaim my time for thinking about you, reclaim my time for imagining what could of been, and reclaiming my time for the moments I spent getting to know you.

Jump to a week after all of this went down, we go to our campuses food joint for breakfast with friends and once again, Coffee Boy is there. I completely ignored him of course but my friends mentioned how he was staring. Going up to place our order we exchange greetings and here he has the gall to try and act all cute, little did we know the exact moment we came up is when he conveniently decided to text us "Hey!"

I did what any other girl would do and ignored his message. Eventually, he texted again saying who he was but I still ignored it. If it took you a considerable amount of time to text me me a simple "Hey" and only when you saw me again, then you're not worth me sending you a reply.

And you want to know what's even funnier? He had a chance and he blew it! Like seriously blew it. But I'm not gonna bother thinking about this dude anymore because writing this article was my therapy.

So goodbye and good riddance Coffee Boy.

11 Things Summer Nannies Can Relate To

There are plenty of obstacles that come when taking care of kids, but it's a very rewarding experience.

University of Wisconsin Branch Schools

As a college student, being a nanny over the summer is both enjoyable and challenging. Underneath the seemingly perfect trips to the pool or countless hours spent playing Monopoly are the obstacles that only nannies will understand. Trading in your valuable summer vacation in return for three months spent with a few children less than half your age may seem unappealing, but so many moments make it rewarding. For my fellow summer nannies out there, I know you can relate.

11 Struggles Of Having An “Ethnic” Name

You'll never find any souvenirs with your name on it

There are a lot of really easy, common names in the U.S. and while many of those simple names have different spellings, most of the time, pronunciation is not an issue that those people need to worry about. However, others are not as fortunate and often times give up on corrections after a while. We usually give an A+ for effort. So, as you could probably imagine, there are a few struggles with having a name that isn’t technically English. Here are just a few…

Don't Be That Person

Puerto Ricans. They are very proud people and whether they were born on the island or born in the United States by Puerto Rican parent(s). It gets even better when they meet another fellow Puerto Rican or Latino in general. You’ll know quickly if they are Puerto Rican whether the flag is printed somewhere on their person or whether they tell you or whether the famous phrase “wepa!” is said.

To The Girl Who Falls Too Fast, Never Be Ashamed Of How Hard You Love

Love hard, every day, and never be ashamed.

If it hurts now, it'll hurt again. Not because you're gullible or naive, only because you fall fast, hard, and you do it every time.

We fall each and every time with the complete and utter confidence that someone will be there to catch us. Now that person we SWORE we were never going to fall for has our hearts, and every time we see them our palms start sweating. The butterflies in our stomach start to soar and our hearts are entirely too close to bursting out of our chests.
