It's so hard to hold onto someone you know you could never be with. And no matter how you think about it, you just have to let them go. Because while good things never last, some don't even start.
Why does it bother me so? It's not an issue of being without you - rather, you being with her.

Accomplishments are made possible by your mother - failures are your own fault.
Hi Mams,
Midterms are over, and I'm looking forward to the week or so I have as a break from the next wave. I can't wait to come home next weekend. Despite how I may have come off on the occasional phone calls, I've missed your cooking, your words of wisdom, even your judgmental nitpicks.
It's one thing to be criticized by your friends, another to be analyzed by your mother. But believe me, I'd much rather shamefully be under careful observation through your slightly skewed rose-colored glasses than be at fault by the scrutiny of my self-righteous peers.
I've taken to my social cocoon again, much like last quarter. I don't know why I tend to become more reserved, borderline secretive even, when it comes to friends' remarks about my actions or whereabouts. Hopefully I'll be able to overcome this tendency, since they're all undeserving of that kind of treatment. I promise, I'll come home with hours worth of harmonious accords rather than negative feedback.
I won't let you down.
Love, YS

The dénouement.
Two months can change everything. Take, for instance, my entire world.
Please, not literally.

The Bucket List
1. Be the happiest I've never been.
2. Strive for 1 through whatever I may chance to do.

We're in the prime of our lives.
My subsequent life has passed - I was going to say, happily - but, at all events, tolerably enough.
- The Blithedale Romance. Nathaniel Hawthorne
Turkey Bowl is coming up and I've begun to worry that we've all grown too distant to keep it going. How ironic is it that just into our second year of college, we've nearly given up the one tradition that had been created to last?
"People say change is great, but what's so great about change?"
Beats me.
