A Letter To My Long Distance Boyfriend

My Love,

I know this whole long distance relationship is hard, but I also know we can do it. I know every day is one day closer to the next time I'll see you but it's hard to wait. I hate being without you for weeks or months at a time. I hate not being by your side. But I love being your girlfriend and I know we can make it work because love is greater than distance.

Even though I don't get to see you in person every day, at least, I get to talk to you. Whether it be via text, a phone call, or a video chat. Video chat is my favorite way to communicate because I get to hear your voice and see your face, but it's still not the same. But it's definitely better than nothing. And for now, I guess that's okay.

I love how we can stay up all night talking over video chat about random things or stupid drama in our lives. We play games and make memories even though we're hundreds of miles apart. We can talk for hours and hours and never run out of things to talk about. That's one thing I love about you.

Since I don't get to see you every day, it makes the times I do see you so much better. I look forward to seeing you and cherish the time we have together. If we saw each other each and every day, the time we spent together wouldn't be as special. Don't get me wrong, I would love to see you every day, but since I don't, the times I do get to see you and be in your arms are the best days of my life.

Neither of us wants to do this distance thing forever. But I know that if we can get through it now, we will never have to do it again. These four years may be tough, but after that, we won't have to be apart for these amounts of time again. We have summer and winter breaks when we'll get to see each other for the longest periods of time. Even though they're not great, they're better than nothing.

I love you. I wouldn't trade you or our relationship for the world. I love everything about you. There is nothing negative I can say because you are the best thing that has ever happened to me. You're the sweetest, most caring guy I've ever had the pleasure of dating and I'm so lucky to call you mine.

I've been in a couple of long distance relationships and didn't think they were too difficult. However, doing this with you is so difficult because I just want to spend every moment with you. In the past, I could do it because it was really the only type of relationship I had known and the distance wasn't as bad. Now, we're really far apart and I love you too much to be without you.

Thank you for being you. You've changed my life and I can't wait to see you in a few weeks. I love you.

Your Girlfriend

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:

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.

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.
