Before you met me, you did not know who I was.

You did not know how messy my life had gotten. You did not know my scars. Yet when you met me, you showed me so much love. For the first time in my life, you made me feel worthy of being loved. For almost a year since you were 8 weeks old, you have continued to love me no matter what. Through all the stress, sadness, anxiety, etc., you jumped on me begging me to feel better.

I looked for a long time for the right animal, and just when I gave up, I found you. So thank you for the love you have given me this past year. I will forever love you the way you love me. You taught me how to laugh again and how to take care of something super important.

The day I took you home, I was with you through all of your training, through all of your troubles, and through all of the learning experiences. Through the stress of school, family, friends and work, you have stayed with me, and the love we have will never end. Our bond will forever exist, no matter what we do and no matter how far we go.

A year ago, I had trouble doing even the simplest chores. Now, I get up and cannot imagine how I was once that depressed. I get up happy and ready for the new experiences and the life we will go through together. I used to wish to never wake up, and now I hope for another great day with you!

I love everything about you. I love the way you yawn and how you play with your toys. I love playing tug of war with you and making your tail wag every time I come home. I love watching you interact with other dogs and wondering how something so amazing could play and enjoy life the way you do. My favorite thing about you is that nights alone are over. You cuddle next to me, and I no longer feel as dark as I used to.


So to all of you emotional support animals, I thank you for being there because you will never truly realize how much of a difference you make for us. We as your owners and best friends love you so much! We are so grateful for you!

Sincerely,

The owner and best friend to the World's Best Emotional Support Animal!

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.
