To My Best Friend's Daughter

I love you more than I could ever say.

To My Best Friend's Daughter

Baby girl, I want to start out by saying I love you more than anything this world. I loved you from the moment I found out you were on the way. I loved you from the moment I say the picture your dad sent me the day you were born. Your mom and I have been friends for as long as I can remember, and to be able to call you my niece is the greatest honor I could have ever received. I know you're too young to understand now, but my hope is that one day I can read this to you, and hopefully all the thing I have to say will be true.

I promise that I will always be there for you. No matter how far away I am, or what time of day or night it is, I am only just a phone call away. Even if you're 15 and at a party where you need to get away from, I'll come pick you up. I won't even tell your mom. Or if you just broke up with your first boyfriend and think your mom won't understand, I'll be there to listen. I'll even probably threaten to kick his ass for hurting my precious niece. And I promise to be there when you argue with your mom. I'll agree that's she's awful, but still give you the advice you need to hear.

I promise to be at the events that mean the most to you. From VIP day at school to high school graduation, you better believe I'll be there. And I'll be the one cheering the loudest.

I promise to spoil you. And oh, will I spoil you. From new clothes to spa days, if I can give it to you, I will. I'll give you the pop your mom says no to, feed you sweets and then drop you back off at home. I'll do all the things the cool aunts do, and I'll do it 1000 times better.

But most of all, I promise to always love you. I promise to be a constant in your life. Even if you have annoyed the crap out of me, and I may snap and show my annoyance, I hope you know my love for you will never waiver. Even when I have my own children, you'll always hold a special place in my heart.

I love you darling, and know that if I could be there reading this to you now I would be. But sometimes life isn't fair, and I can't always be where I want. But you better believe I'll always, always, be there when you need me.

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

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.
