To the ladies I will live with for the next two years, I love you both more than I love avocados, and that's saying something!

500 Words to My Froomies
Kelly Mahaffy

Ab and Em,

We have been preparing for this for SO many months now. Soon, we will be living together and we will be roomies and all will be good in the world. I am so excited to return to school, fight over apartment decorations, and finally feel like an adult in our real life apartment. I know this summer will feel long, however, because you two, my two best friends, are not with me for the summer. All school year, we have known we would be living together. We have planned, talked, fought a little bit, and have all experienced our excitement build with every day that passes. You two have become my rocks, the people I turn to for everything, and now you are at home hours from me. Who else understands my weird sense of humor? Who else would threaten the Beta’s that currently live in our apartment with me? Who else understands what a big decision my K-cups are? The three of us are like three peas in the nicest pod of an apartment ever, but unfortunately we still can’t be that quite yet. We have a few more months to wait.

While we are at home, alone, waiting, I have realized just how much you two mean to me. You two are so much more than my froomies, you are the only people I can be honest with about exactly how I feel about furniture, decor, and everything else in our lives. You two get the good and the bad of being neighbors with our favorite fraternity house like no one else. You know by just a look when I’m having a horrible day, when I am absolutely happy, and every other emotion. I am so happy that in three short months the three of us will be living together, but until then, I will just be sitting here in St. Louis planning every little detail of our apartment and missing you two!

No matter what happens in our apartment, I am so happy to know that we will be okay. We may (will) fight a little bit about how to set things up, what all we need, and whose furniture goes where, but no matter what we will make it through. We will ALWAYS be friends first roomies second. Froomies is more than just a misunderstood word to us, it is the truth! I know that The Babe Cave will be the absolute best apartment in Kirksville because it will be us three! What could be better than that? We will have the best two years of our lives in 910, that's for sure, now we just have to hurry up and wait to get there August 1st.

Three months is officially too long to wait, however, we will make it and soon enough we will be back in KVegas having the time of our lives watching movies, eating popcorn, and drinking pink wine every night. I love you both so much, miss you terribly, will continue to send you EXTREMELY ugly snapchats, and can’t wait three months to start the best time of our lives!

Love Always,

Kel

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

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.
