An Open Letter To My Dad On Father's Day

An Open Letter To My Dad On Father's Day

Dear Dad,

These last few years may have felt like an roller coaster for both of us as well as the rest of the family. Either way, I'm grateful I have you as my Dad. It may have taken me awhile to say this because we haven't always seen eye to eye, but I'm happy you're my Dad.

I know I can always depend on you when I need it the most - whether I'm panicking over college, struggling to learn how to drive, or when I need an strong opinion on something. I know I can count on you for anything. Thank you for everything you do for me, especially when it comes to teaching me driving and helping me through college with your encouragement (and the drives back and forth when you drop me off too).

You've always introduced me to the best kinds of music ( your words, not mind) such as the Beatles. When I was younger, I became obsessed over them when we saw their tribute band with my aunt. Thank you for also introducing me to The Who, Led Zeppelin, and Derek Trucks Band, to name a few. You have helped me appreciate the blues, and classic rock, and even Irish music.

I know we may not get along all the time, or always agree on everything, but you've always been a great dad to me, ever since I was a kid and looked up to you.

Happy Father's Day, dad. I love you so much.

Love Your Daughter,

Meaghan

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.

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.
