I can never thank my family enough.

A Letter To My Family
Forever Kim Marie Photography, LLC

Dear Family,

I can never thank you enough for all that you have done for me and taught me. Let me just go through the list and tell you why.

To my Older Brother

Thank you for being the one I always look up to. We were a team growing up, and that was the best time ever. Not only did I learn through your mistakes, you also taught me lessons. Although we had so many times that we fought, both physically and verbally, it has been so great. Now we look back on those memories and laugh until we cry, wishing we could go back ro relive them. And so I would like to thank you for being my rolemodel.

To my Younger Sister

Thank you for being a pain in my butt. You may get on my nerves a lot, but we also have fun a lot. I have always strived to be your rolemodel just like our older brother was to me, and hopefully I have succeeded. Now that it is just you, me, and our younger brother living with mom and dad, we do so much together. Whether it's on a trip or vacation, we are usually doing all kinds of activities together. So I would like to thank you for being there all the time, even though you drive me nuts.

To my Younger Brother

Even though we don't havg out much, it's a hoot when we do. When my younger siblings and I get together to talk about the past, it's so fun to here your side because you are the baby. Us? We were never the baby, you have that spot. You are also very well educated on a lot of subjects. I may get annoyed that you are constantly on your phone watching Youtube and stuff, but you must be learning something. With that, I would like to thank you for teaching me sometimes.

To my Mom

First I would like to start with, thank you for still calling the doctor and everything for me. You are an angel. On to a more serious note, I could never ask for a better mom. You cheer me on and brag about me and my siblings so much. It's so awesome to know that through this crazy life, we will at least of one supporter. You have also taught me so many lessons and let me know about your mistakes, so I don't make the same ones. You and dad have ALWAYS been there for us and are always at any kind of dinner, sporting event, band or choir event, bakesale, etc. more than I saw any other parents. So thank you for loving us unconditionally.

To my Dad

I can not so enough about you. You are so wise and have taught me endless lessons. My favorite talks with you are when I am the only one with you. They have really shaped my thoughts now. I also love the ability to have quick comebacks and humor, that really comes in handy. You have taught me things like how to manage money, what kind of men to avoid, how to be independent, and so much more. I couldn't ask for more. Like I mentioned above, you and mom were always and anything that me or my siblings had, and it has taught us that you and mom love us unconditionally. I only hope that if I ever have kids, I can be as good of a parent that you and mom are. So thank you for loving us unconditionally.

I love all of you guys to no end and would never trade you for another family. My siblings and I may fight a lot and we may retaliate a lot, but look where we are now. We are doing just fine. To my family, thank you for being my family.

Love,

Your Daughter or Your Sister

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.
