A Letter To All Of My High School Friends

Because you'll all be the inspiration for my Children's bedtime stories

A Letter To All Of My High School Friends
Alli Snider

To My High School Best Friends,

Four years ago, we were just freshmen in high school. All of us were terrified out of our minds that we would not fit in or find friends. However, as fate is in the hands of God, he brought us all together knowing we all needed each other. We were just a ragtag group of friends who enjoyed crazy antics, Friday night football games, and all nighters where we would stay up late watching movies and eating Chipotle.

I loved you guys with all of my heart, and I still do. As I walked out on that stage to receive my diploma two months ago, I remembered all the times we have shared together. I remembered the Times where we built ridiculous projects together while getting sick off of pizza, times where we sat together in the hard times crying in each other's arms, and times when we hugged each other with unbelievable joy. In ten years, these will be the times that turn into bedtime stories for my children, stories that they will remember for years to come when making memories of their own.

All of us are on our own personal journey: We're going to be scattered about the world making it a better place. Some of us will be musicians or scientists, and some of us will be teachers or businessmen, but regardless of who we are, we're all going to remember the times we spent together. College is a new adventure, just like the ones we used to go on together, and even though we're going to meet incredible people, we'll still keep each other in our hearts and memories for ages and ages.

Wherever life may go, may we all cherish the memories we all made together.

With all my Love, Alli

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.
