A Thank You Letter To My College Roommate
Jackie Berchtein

Coming into college, you don't really know what kind of expectations to have about your roommate. Its a common question of is she going to be my best friend? Or are we just going to be civil and get along inside of the room? I know coming into college I was telling myself that even if my roommate isn't my best friend, it would be OK. Little did I know, she became my best friend. Don't forget to thank your college roommate for all of the not so little things they do for you.

1. Thanks for being my personal therapist in all of the (many) times that I needed you.

2. Thank you for being my college mom and always making sure I get my homework done and taking care of me when I'm sick (especially delivering Starbucks to me in bed).

3. Thank you for tolerating me. I know I can sometimes be bizarre.

4. Thank you for always checking up on me when I'm not back yet ("I'm not crazy, but can you please just let me know that you're OK").

5. Thank you for proofreading almost all of my papers and helping me prepare for exams.

6. Thank you for the endless food, target, and Wegmans trips. Couldn't imagine running through aisles without you.

7. Thank you for tagging me in funny videos and pictures that you know will make my day.

8. Thanks for just sitting and letting me cry even though it probably made you extremely uncomfortable.

9. Thank you for motivating me to go to the gym and do the things I never want to do.

10. Lastly, thanks for being my best friend at college and outside of college. Ladies, I'm sure a lot of these relate to you and your roommate so don't forget to thank them every once in a while.

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.

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.
