Dear Clyde,

As I am writing this right now you are actually right in my ear playing with a stupid squeaky toy that I was dumb enough to give you. But, where do I begin. I have only had you for 7 short months. When I first got you I was so excited but, nervous at the same time. I really did not know if I was ready to take on the responsibility of taking care of a puppy because, you needed so much attention. You literally needed to be watched 24/7 like a little baby. Not only that but, I knew you were going to be expensive as well. Keeping a puppy happy and healthy is quite pricey. But, I was so happy to have you. You were my dog. No one else's. I got you all to my self.

I am not going to lie sometimes you REALLY get on my nerves. Like when you decide to act like a dog from hell. When you chew up my clothes, or happy pee everywhere and I mean everywhere. When you like to play fight when I am ready to go to bed. When you are wild as hell and run around in circles forever. Or when you want to be a winy baby and cry about everything. But through it all I still love you.

Even though you are really wild and BAD you still are the best puppy in the world. You have brought so much joy into my life. There is never a dull moment with you. You keep me on my toes. You keep me smiling. You really are my best friend. When I have a bad day, I always get to come home to you and you automatically cheer me up. You are always there to cuddle with me and love me.

Clyde getting you is one of the best decisions I have ever made. After I lost my other dog I really did not think I could ever love a dog as much as I did him but, I surprisingly I love you just as much. I dread the day that I ever have to put you to sleep or the day that you pass away. I really don't know what I will do with myself.

A huge shout out to Facebook for sharing you on my timeline. I am so glad your cute face popped up. But thank you Clyde for being my best friend. Thank you for always keeping me on my toes. Thank you for driving me insane. Thank you for being so silly and making me laugh. Thank you for still loving me after I have to fuss at you. Thank you for bringing so much joy into my life.

Love ya Clyde!

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:

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.
