You are my role model.  I appreciate all that you’ve done and encourage you to continue doing what you’re doing.  You’re great, you’re smart, insightful, wise…. You are the best little brother anyone could ever ask for.

I love you lots.  I will always be here for you.

Rochester

I still can’t believe how fast time is going by.  I remember spending the summer of my senior year in high school scrolling through the “University of Rochester Class of 2015” page every single day, and contacting the financial aid and admissions office every day.
I thought college was going to be a lot easier than it actually is (maybe it’s because I’m always freaking over-loading).  It’s definitely hard, rough and unbelievably tortuous at times.. Especially at a school like the University of Rochester.

In high school, getting a 4.0 was a breeze.  I graduated with a 3.89 cumulative GPA, while also being the President of 4 different clubs, and Vice President of 3 others, and also a member of countless other clubs. In addition, I traveled abroad to complete community service every summer starting my freshman year (each trip was covered COMPLETELY — I got accepted into all these different programs and scholarships).  But in college, I’m working, I’ve been taking 5 classes ever since I’ve been here, and I’m in a sorority.  I haven’t had a 4.0 GPA since I’ve been here, and I got my first C on my transcript - ever.   I goto every class, take notes every day, and continuously study.  And I always feel like I never have time for anything else: other extracurriculars, studying abroad, and going out to party every now and then.
College is hard.

I’m a rising junior, and despite how awful it’s been overloading these past two years, I do intend to continue doing it because I know it will only benefit me.  However, I do plan on adopting more extracurricular activities while also working a job, or two.  I want to be the person I was in high school again.  I really, really do.

Fingers crossed. AHH


Leaving at the same time doesn’t even begin to make things feel any less painful.
We have been side by side literally every single day since the start of the semester; we couldn’t be a part, ever.

You make me so. happy. I feel so special and light and protected and free around you.

3 months of endless sunshine and endless adventures won’t get you out of my mind - not even for a second. I will think about you every day. I can’t get enough of you. I can’t help myself.

I’m already counting down the days til I get to see you again. I can’t wait for you to hug and hide me from the world again.


We are so good together. We are perfect for each other.


do not make this a competition.
this is stupid, selfish and pointless of you to do.
keep trying.

you will lose.
