To The Girl He Will Eventually Marry, I Hope More Than Anything That You Will Make Him Happy

I hope you guys have a love like that — something that no one can take from you.

Well, you're standing where I always hoped I'd stand: at the end of an altar, hand-in-hand with the guy of our dreams.

Who would have thought?

When I look back at my relationship with your fiance, I think about how he knew how to make me really feel on top of the world — I hope he does the same for you. But, even more than that, I hope you do the same for him because as I hope you know he deserves only the best.

I'm sure he's changed — actually, I hope he's changed because I know that he can be the reason for your highest highs and your lowest lows. I know he'll make you doubt yourself some days and I know he can be the most stubborn person in the world but I promise he's worth it.

Don't let him shut you out because he doesn't really want to be left alone. In fact, he wants you to talk to him until the wee hours of the morning.

I can see why you love him. I know that New York accent of his is enough to make anyone fall in love as soon as he opens his mouth. I know his laugh can seem so melodic that you begin to prefer it over your favorite song. I hope you both sing Matchbox Twenty at obnoxious volumes and that you truly understand his love for Phil Collins and the whole Tarzan soundtrack. I hope you have 3 a.m. talks — that's always been his hour, the hour where his beautiful mind works best.

We used to talk on the phone as I deep-fried pickles and sat on my countertop. I hope you guys have a thing like that, something that no one can take from you.

I really debated writing this because you are the reason he and I are no longer together. But I know that he deserves the best and if he chose you then you must be it. I want nothing more than for you two to live the happiest life possible.

I hope, more than anything, that you make him happy.

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.
