I'll Always Be A Daddy's Little Girl

From a baby to adulthood, nothing changes

I'll Always Be A Daddy's Little Girl
Samantha Lee Dietl

I've been truly blessed with an amazing father. He is more than a father, he is my support system, my shoulder to cry on, and most importantly; my best friend. My dad has been someone who has never let me down, someone who has always been a constant in my life. I'm beyond thankful to have someone like him as my father.

Whenever I see him after an extended period of time (i.e. being at college for a month and a half without going home), I run to him like a five-year-old does when she gets out of kindergarten.

One thing I love about my dad is that he is my personal cheerleader. He never lets me feel down, or get upset about a bad grade, or a bad day. Even though half the time he makes fun of me for being overdramatic, or emotional, he always knows how to make me feel better.

And let me tell you, my dad's bear hugs are the best.

No matter how many times I mess up, or even make the same mistakes.. My dad is always by my side helping me back up. And yes, he doesn't stop helping me back onto my feet and telling me "everything will be okay."


Some mom's are the chefs of the family, but not for mine. My dad should own his own restaurant with how good of food he makes daily. It might be one of the (many) reasons I love to go and be home. I honestly hope thats a trait that I acquired from my dad.

Besides my dad being a shoulder to cry on, he is always someone who understands me, and my weirdness. I always have someone to laugh at my stupid jokes and someone to make even better ones immediately after. My dad has never seized to fail to make me laugh, even when I'm in the worsts of moods, and I'm so beyond thankful for that. Even when I am off at college, I know I can shoot my dad a text, and I'll immediately get a call, FaceTime, or picture from my dad that'll put me in a better mood... Unless he tries to give me advice.

I know my dad knows what is best for me, and he constantly pushes me to be the best person I can possibly be. I've been able to learn my potential through him and his constant cheerleading. It astonishes me that even after I have made mistakes, and disappointed someone, they will still love me unconditionally, and always be my best friend.

I am very thankful for the father I have. My dad is my best friend, and my role model. And even though I don't always listen to him or his advice, I truly don't know what I would do without him, or where I would be in life.

I am a daddy's little girl, and I have no problem saying it.

Forever thankful for all that my dad does - I couldn't imagine life without him.

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.
