An Open Letter to the People I Coudn't Live Without

To my favorite human beings,

I know I don’t remind you often enough how much of a blessing you are in my life. Maybe when we were created, God lined up our paths and destined us to be a part of each other’s lives. Or maybe he threw you into my family and now you’re stuck with me (there’s no getting out of that one!) No matter the circumstance, you are such a vital part of my world. You’ve dealt with all the crazy I’ve ever thrown your way and you’ve been with me this long. I couldn’t be any more thankful for you.

You’re my support when I need it. I know that no matter what, if I ever need something you’ll be the one I call. I know you’ll be there for me and I’ll always be here for you. You’re the one that is there to listen despite how trivial the matter or how many times you have repeatedly offered me the same advice. Sometimes all I need is for someone to listen and I know you will. You’re my rock that keeps me steady and a constant in my life I can always count on.

You’re the person in my best memories and funniest stories. You’ve experienced the greatest times of my life with me and you made those times even better. Nothing can take back or replace the time we’ve spent together or how much it means to me. We have so many memories that without you I don’t know what else I would have spent my time doing. We grew up together and in ways you grew into parts of who I am today. You’re the first person I want to call to spend my free time with and add to our ever growing list of adventures.

We’ve been through it all together. In every celebration and every setback, you were there for me. We’ve made it through more than a couple of fights and we’ve come out stronger than we were before. You’ve heard my whole story and probably know me better than I know myself. Through hell and back, we’ve been there and we’re still going.

If I lost you, I honestly could not tell you what I would do; I would be beyond broken. You’re the person I know I can fall back on and without you, I would be perpetually falling. If I lost you, I would lose an even bigger, irreplaceable part of myself.

You’re the person I couldn’t imagine life without. You’re my partner in crime, the one I wanna roll around in the nursing home with, and the one I want standing beside me on my wedding day. You’re my go-to, my number one, my ride-or-die. Thank you for being you. I know I don’t tell you enough but you’re the best I’ve got and I couldn’t ask for anything better. No matter what happens in this life, at least we have each other and I can always count on that, which is more than good enough for me.

Sincerely,

Your forever grateful 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.

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:

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.
