A Letter To My Future Daughter

A Letter To My Future Daughter
impious digest

Dearest Daughter,

I write this letter to you at the tender and virile age of 21. Here's a picture for reference.

Look how full of life I am. You can almost see the lack of fatherhood in my smile.

Anyways, I can't even begin to tell you how much I love you because I don't know you. I mean, how would I know if I love someone I don't even know? But we can clear that up fairly easily.

Do you like Star Wars?

If so, then I can at least say that I think you're fairly tolerable. If not, well then I assume your adopted parents are the ones who gave you this letter.

But I digress.

My plan is to give this to you on your eighteenth birthday, which will most likely mean that you're currently a senior in high school. Thus, I think congratulations are in order. Great job on getting that athletic, academic, or poor people scholarship!!

So sorry if you didn't actually get a scholarship to college. But if you need any help filling out your McDonald's job application, talk to your mother.

I gotta wrap this up, but I do have a few questions for you before I go. You'll be receiving this letter in a reality far different than the one I currently occupy, so I'm interested to know what it's like.

Did Trump win the 2016 election?

How's my mansion?

Am I still handsome? If "no," why are you lying to your father?

Lastly, I need you to fill in the blank so that I will know if I raised you well or not. If you can finish this sentence, despite whatever mistakes I've made as a father, I can always have some shred of dignity as a parent.

"Dicks out for _______"

Okay, so if you can Interstellar those answers to me that'd be great. Do you know that movie? If not just watch it on your iPhone or whatever device Apple has out that was built with the blood, sweat, and tears of Chinese children.

Anyhow, it's Friday night so I gotta go do some things that I'll disown you for if you ever do. Ta ta for now!

Love (maybe),

Your dad

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.
