An Open Letter To My Boyfriend On Valentine's Day

Dear babe,

Happy 1st Valentine's Day together! A year ago, I would have never imaged myself celebrating this lovey dovey holiday. In fact my TimeHop can profess to that statement. I practically worshiped Single Awareness Day. I always made little jokes about Single Awareness Day, and how much money I just saved by switching to single, but who was I kidding the next day I would binge at CVS for all the half off candy deals.

But this year is different, because this year I'm happy to be cute and gross with a guy like you.

I want to thank you for loving me even when I get mad over the little things. Thank you for giving me your time, because you don't have to call me at 2 am to check up on me while I'm slaving over a paper; and you could be sound asleep. I want to thank you for loving the things that I hate most about myself, because it always was a constant worry of mine.

I thank God everyday that he put a guy like you in my life, because you were always something I dreamed of, but never imaged as a reality. I love the person you are, your character shines when you walk into a room. I love that you're goofy and will do anything to make me laugh or smile when I'm sad or mad.

You make me a better person and you make my tummy warm and filled with butterflies just by looking at me. I don't know how I got so blessed, but I'm truly happy God blessed me with you.

Everything you do for me means so much to me because you don't have to do all these things, but you do. Being with you is like a Nicholas Sparks movie, but no one dies and thankfully there's no crazy ex-boyfriend or girlfriend involved.

All and all, I'm excited to spend this love-filled holiday with you, and I hope we can have many more to come. Let's go out there and make more sap-happy memories together.

Happy 1st Valentine's Day my love.


Love,

Your girlfriend

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.

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.

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.
