How has 4 years flown by already?

It feels like just yesterday we were meeting for the first time.

Unaware of how quickly a strong friendship was about to form. Maybe it was by chance or maybe it was meant to be, but nonetheless you became my best friend.

We have undoubtedly created some of the most amazing and unique memories throughout our time in college. Some we could vividly remember and some we have to think a little harder to remember. Nonetheless, every moment we spent together led us to where we are today.

Together we conquered college and all the highs and lows it brought.

You helped me when I was in times of struggle, and I have helped you when you needed it the most. In times of triumph and happiness we also were there, together, celebrating those moments. Working our way through college probably would have been a lot harder had we not had each other. Our college experiences would not have been the same if it weren't for our friendship.

Now, in a mere few weeks, our time at college (well at least undergraduate) is about to come to a close.

Our plans for the future are vastly different and will separate us once again by distance. The one thing I know for sure, however, is that our friendship will know no distance.

Our friendship will stay strong and we will still be in each other's lives.

We will be standing next to each other when we get married and spoiling each other's future kids. Because we built a friendship so strong, I believe it will last us through our adult lives.

I will miss you dearly once we graduate and it comes August when we feel like we should be moving back to school.

But I know you have some amazing things that lie ahead for you. You are one of the strongest people I know and you will do amazing things in adulthood. I wish you the best of luck and never forget that I am always here for you. I cannot wait to see how much stronger our friendship becomes while we begin to shape our own lives.

Together we started our first day of classes, and together we will walk across the stage to receive our diplomas.

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.
