To My Freshman Roomie, I Love You More Than Words Can Describe

Simply put, you're the best.

Dear Roomie,

I was nervous before I met you. I had never shared a room with someone long term and I was anxious that we would end up hating each other. I had no idea what to expect. I didn't know if you would be one of those people who is very neat and I was too sloppy for you, or what if I was the neat one? Well since day 1, my fears have been relieved — because simply put, you're the best.

Thank you for being the best first roommate I could have had and for doing Freshman year with me. Thank you for taking out the trash when I forget to, and for never shaming me for my messy desk. Thank you for the late night talks when we dish about boy and friend drama, for doing random and impromptu roomie dates with me, for our shared love of Panera, and for taking videos of me when I'm lying in bed a little too tipsy.

I can't believe this year is almost over and with it our year of living together. I will miss either of us sneaking in late and trying not to wake the other person up, your constant microwaving of Ramen Noodles, our vent sessions about stupid people, and honestly — I will miss you.

Freshman roomie, you were there with me through the biggest year of change in my life. I'm so glad it was you that I lived with. I love you, roomie.

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.

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.
