A friend who became a best friend.

Dear my unexpected best friend,

The day that I met you, there was no way of knowing that you would later become my best friend. You made me laugh instantly and within those five minutes of talking, and I hoped that we would be friends in the future. We both were somewhat in the same friend group but I separately surrounded myself with the wrong people. As time went on we slowly spent more and more time together without realizing that we were becoming each other's person. We would meet up late nights and talk about our issues without being judged. As I lost friends and gained more you were always there to listen to me vent about the same situations for days.

Even though I'm sometimes sensitive and unpredictable, you always choose to see the best in me. Although we don't talk about how we feel all the time it's important that you know how much you've impacted my life on a positive level. In high school I was never able to find the right friend group and bounced around multiple times just to find a "best friend." Luckily, I did find a best friend in high school and funny enough she has the same name as you! While there were good friends in school there were toxic one's as well, and you constantly watch out for me and have my back when those situations occur.

You understand me unlike anyone I've ever been friends with and not seeing you during the summer will be so difficult. I know you're scared about what next year will hold, but I can promise you that I'll always be a part of your life. It doesn't matter if we are "best friends" or just "friends" next year. Just know that no matter what happens or wherever life takes you you'll always have a friend in me.

Love,

Your best friend

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.

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.

Top 10 Reasons My School Rocks!

Why I Chose a Small School Over a Big University.

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.
