Our 4th Anniversary

I'm not usually this sappy, honestly.

Looking back on past writings is a great way to get a peak into your frame of mind. This is a work of reflection as this week marks the 4th year of my boyfriend and I being together.

The first time Cody and I started dating was over 8 years ago, during my freshman year of high school. It's funny to think we're talking about the possibility of marriage and spending our lives together, because when we first started dating he couldn't muster up the courage to ask me out himself. He had our friend ask me for him at a Football game. (Thanks, Isaac for asking me for him)

He's been a huge part of my life, and I'm excited for what's to come.

Obviously, since he's part of my life he's become a part of my writing as well. The poem I've included this week is the first poem I ever wrote to him, which I wrote about 4 years ago. My writing style has changed a lot since then and this poem is pretty sappy , but it’s still really special to me and I wanted to share it as we celebrate our relationship this week.

You are mine

as I am yours

just like the oceans

belong to the shores

while all the birds

belong to the skies

I am yours

while you are mine

As all the creatures

belong to the land

just like the pen

belongs to the hand

just as the light

belongs to the stars

you are mine

as I am yours

the melodies of song

belong to the ears

just like the harmonies of time,

belong to the years

the beat of our hearts

matches in time

as I am yours

and you are mine

while all the birds

belong to the skies

I am yours

while you are mine

just like the oceans

belong to the shores

You are mine, dear

As I am yours

Challah vs. Easter Bread: A Delicious Dilemma

Is there really such a difference in Challah bread or Easter Bread?

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
