You're Not Sorry

And you never will be.

You're Not Sorry
huffpost.com

People come and go. Friends, significant others, and even sometimes family. It can hurt when someone you once trusted and actually cared for, or maybe even loved one way or another, betrays you. I've been there, we've all been there.

From time to time, new people come into my life and it's nice for awhile because it's nice to know someone new. The part that really hurts is when that person turns out to be everything you hoped they wouldn't be.

Learning to trust someone after being screwed over time after time can be hard. If the new people you let in turn out to be everything you were afraid of, let them go. If they try to come back, they'll probably do everything all over.

They're not sorry. They may say they're sorry, but most likely they're not. Most times people say sorry just to feel better about themselves and have a sense of a clear conscience. Not always, but most times.

Don't let people walk all over you and/or use you. I'm the first to admit, I let the wrong people in, one after another. It's not fun. If someone in your life hurts you, betrays you, lets you down, or makes you feel as if you're the problem and something is wrong with you, say goodbye to that person. They're not worth it.

Good people with good hearts are always the ones to get screwed over, just remember that. Those with cruel and empty hearts, are selfish and don't care about anyone but themselves. It sucks.

Unfortunately, just recently I had to go through this again and now I'm paying the consequences. I had to say goodbye and remove myself from an unhealthy environment and friendship. It honestly doesn't feel good. Many people will tell me, it's not my fault and that I did nothing wrong. I don't believe that. I give and I give, but everything is looked over and taken for granted. I guess I learned my lesson, again.

All in all, don't let other people make you feel worthless and terrible, because you're not. The people who do make you feel this type of way just are not truly happy with their self, so they try to make those around them feel bad. They may not even know that they're doing this.

Just remember, they're not sorry and they most likely never will be. Learn to let go and move on, because you did nothing wrong.

Summer: a time (usually) free from school work and a time to relax with your friends and family. Maybe you go on a vacation or maybe you work all summer, but the time off really does help. When you're in college you become super close with so many people it's hard to think that you won't see many of them for three months. But, then you get that text saying, "Hey, clear your schedule next weekend, I'm coming up" and you begin to flip out. Here are the emotions you go through as your best friend makes her trip to your house.

Kourtney Kardashian

Winter break is over, we're all back at our respective colleges, and the first week of classes is underway. This is a little bit how that week tends to go.

The professor starts to go over something more than the syllabus

You get homework assigned on the first day of class

There are multiple group projects on the syllabus

You learn attendance is mandatory and will be taken every class

Professor starts chatting about their personal life and what inspired them to teach this class

Participation is mandatory and you have to play "icebreaker games"

Everybody is going out because its 'syllabus week' but you're laying in bed watching Grey's Anatomy

Looking outside anytime past 8 PM every night of this week

Nobody actually has any idea what's happening this entire week

Syllabus week is over and you realize you actually have to try now...or not

Now it's time to get back into the REAL swing of things. Second semester is really here and we all have to deal with it.

Whether you specialized in ringing people up or preparing the food, if you worked at Panera Bread it holds a special place in your heart. Here are some signs that you worked at Panera in high school.

1. You own so many pairs of khaki pants you don’t even know what to do with them

Definitely the worst part about working at Panera was the uniform and having someone cute come in. Please don’t look at me in my hat.

7 Ways to Make Your Language More Transgender and Nonbinary Inclusive

With more people becoming aware of transgender and non-binary people, there have been a lot of questions circulating online and elsewhere about how to be more inclusive. Language is very important in making a space safer for trans and non-binary individuals. With language, there is an established and built-in measure of whether a place could be safe or unsafe. If the wrong language is used, the place is unsafe and shows a lack of education on trans and non-binary issues. With the right language and education, there can be more safe spaces for trans and non-binary people to exist without feeling the need to hide their identities or feel threatened for merely existing.
