Dear significant other,

Just kidding.

I love you. I hope you always remember that. Thank you for all of the activities you've done with me. Thank you for all the silliness. Thank you for all the crap you put up with. Thank you for dealing with me. Thank you for loving me even when I am hard to love. Thank you for treating me with the utmost respect. Thank you for protecting me. Thank you for worrying. Thank you for being there with me when I have needed you and thank you for being there when I have not.

Dear significant other,

Though we've had our ups and downs we've prevailed and I thank you for sticking around because I know that at times, more often than not, I am hard to love. Thank you for keeping my spirits up and keeping faith in me. Thank you for believing in me. Thank you for encouraging me.

Dear significant other,

Thank you for the laughs, the smiles, and the dancing. Thank you for the meals you provide and the tender loving care. Thank you for forcing medicine down my throat when I am too stubborn to take it myself because I would rather let my immune system fight it naturally. Thank you for that because it makes me feel better almost instantly and that is all you ever want for me, is to feel my best. Thank you for wanting the best for me and thank you for bringing out the best in me. Thank you for still wanting to be with me when you've seen me at my worst. Thank you for seeing me first thing in the morning and not running. Thank you for the kisses. Thank you for the hugs. Thank you for appreciating my love for makeup. Thank you for letting me do yours occasionally. Thank you for not getting mad that I published that on social media. Thank you for doing my eyebrows for me that one time. Thank you for getting pedicures with me.

Thank you for all the sushi you get me. Thank you for feeding that addiction. Thank you for taking me to prom senior year and thank you for all the trips to the antique district that started our relationship. Thank you for introducing yourself 5 years ago. Thank you for sitting by me in class when I asked you to, otherwise, this article wouldn't exist. Thank you for being you. Thank you for your silliness and crazy. Thank you for putting up with my intense love of cats and animals in general. Thank you for the intense love of "Brown Eyed Girl" you've instilled in me. Thank you for taking me to the emergency room at 4 a.m.

Most of all, thank you for loving me.

But I must ask,

Did you bring more cheese pizza?

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

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.

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:

Challah vs. Easter Bread: A Delicious Dilemma

Is there really such a difference in Challah bread or Easter Bread?

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.
