Having a guy best friend definitely has its perks as well as its downfalls, but the one thing you know for certain is that in the end they are always there for you. They will have always have your back and teach you to be a more bold, confident, and even silly, version of yourself.

1. Life doesn’t always have to be so serious

You are constantly laughing and being obnoxiously loud, in public might I add, and you don't really care
who is silently judging you. It is all about fun and laughter when you are together.

2. He has almost all the answers when it comes to those non-girly things

Besides your dad, he's your go to when you have any questions about sports or why your car is making that weird noise again.

3. You’ve grown to become thicker-skinned

For instance, those little, snarky comments that used to hurt your feeling, but now you respond with one right back. Just like having a brother.

4. Expectations of looking nice when you hang out with him are thrown out of the window

"Yeah you can come over, but my hair is a mess and I'm still in my pajamas."

5. You're his personal wing-woman

You know him better than anyone else, so you know exactly what kind of girl is his type and have maybe even tried to set him up with one of your new friends.

6. Everyone assumes you’re dating

"Oh you and *fill in name here* aren't dating??" Umm no...but spending almost every moment together probably doesn't help.

7. You probably do some things that are quite "couple-ish"

You go to the gym and out to eat with each other, scratch each other's backs, and maybe even cuddle a little, but it is all in the package deal of your friendship.

8. He’s one of the first to know when you think a guy is cute

You feel the need to tell him about any potential guy because he knows how to decode any ambiguous messages and will give you the best advice on how to respond to those awkward boy texts. After all, he is a guy.

9. Any potential boyfriend has to vibe well with him

He's your best friend and you would never give him up for some guy. That's best friend code, duh.

10. He’s seen you ugly cry

He's seen you ugly cry about something as small as McDonald's being out of ice cream or a cute puppy and didn't judge you for it at all. Now that my friend, is true friendship.

11. You’d be lost without him

He's your best friend, and like any other best friend, you couldn't do life without him.

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.
