Thank you for caring about me so much

I want to start this off by thanking you.

There was never a moment in my life where I have ever doubted you for longer than a second. You and I have a connection that, though it may not be the same as it once was, now remains just as strong as ever.

This is something that I am eternally grateful for because you still and probably will always mean so much to me.

I may have said some things about you after everything that happened, but you never took any of it to heart and you've done the hardest thing that you can do with an ex, you've stuck around. You continue to do so much for me even through to this day. When I had my heart broken by a friend, who I never anticipated would do anything to hurt me, you were there.

You talked me through everything and told me that I wasn't wrong.

You made me see the other side of things and eventually helped me move on to repair this friendship. When I was having issues with my knee, you did as you do and googled my symptoms. If not only to give me peace of mind, but also yourself. I told you that I thought a brace would help and you offered to order me one from Amazon. You've done things for me that only my immediate family has done. You actually give a shit about me and that is something that I could never thank you enough for. So once again, I thank you.

You are the person I could call at 3 a.m. because I'm having a mental breakdown and you would still come with no questions asked. I know that I can confide in you for literally anything and everything. You give advice based off of your own experiences (and there are MANY experiences).

You do everything you do for others before yourself and it is something that I will always admire about you.

There are so many things that you have done for me up until this point and you will probably do for me in the future. There was a time where I wasn't sure of college prior to my arrival and you changed my outlook on the whole thing. You are one of the people who make me look forward to my days and getting out of bed. Friends like you are the exact people I need in my life. You make me laugh until my sides are splitting and tears are streaming down my cheeks. You light up my entire day. There is so much I have learned from you and so much I will still learn from you.

I will end this letter to you the exact same way I began it. I just want to thank you for everything. Thank you for caring. Thank you for being my rock. You and I have been through so much together and for that, I continue to be eternally grateful.

There is a lot that I couldn't have done without you.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

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.

Whether you met your new love interest online, through mutual friends, or another way entirely, you'll definitely want to know what you're getting into. I mean, really, what's the point in entering a relationship with someone if you don't know whether or not you're compatible on a very basic level?

Consider these 21 questions to ask in the talking stage when getting to know that new guy or girl you just started talking to:

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.
