A Letter to My Ex-Bestie

Dear Ex-best friend,

I cannot believe that we have reached this point. I can’t believe I haven't spoken to you or seen you in this long. We do not talk anymore and you are almost a stranger to me. If we talk at all, it is awkward and I can't bare to sit through the conversation for any longer than a few minutes. I hate that we ended like we did and sometimes I get sad thinking of the bad times. I remember the days when we used to laugh and talk every day. I would tell you everything that happened to me and you would do the same. We would be so silly and goofy together and talked about being the godparents of each other’s children. It's crazy how things change. I miss you and hope that you are doing well. I honestly sometimes even find myself wanting to call you but quickly remember the degree of our relationship.

I thank you for being there for me when I needed you, when I needed a shoulder to cry on, or when I needed a great laugh. You were the support system I needed away from home and you encouraged me to do a lot of things that I never believed I could do. You believed in me when all odds were against me and I thank you so much for that. I’ll never forget the memories we shared and will always remember the good times over the bad. My mom always tells me that sometimes God sends people in your life just for a little bit and they serve a special purpose. I guess you served your purpose in my life and I served mine in yours.

Part of me wishes that none of this ever happened and we could just go back to the way things used to be. However, I know that i simply not possible. Too much has come in between and we could never be the same. I miss coming to your house and binge watching Orange is the New Black all night and eating all of the food in the house. I even miss talking to your family because they were like my second family. Your home was my second home. You were honestly my sister and we had a seemingly unbreakable bond. But clearly everything is not what it seems.

Lastly, I forgive you for everything that you’ve ever done to me and I sincerely apologize for anything that I have done to you. I know that you were a true friend at some point and your intentions were good. I hope that you are living a happy life and succeeding in everything you want to do. I know you have a prosperous future because I've seen your growth throughout the years of our friendship. You are a great person but I have come to terms that you were just not a great person for me. I wish you a long and successful life.

Sincerely,

Your Ex-Bestie

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.

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.
