An Open Letter To My Mother

Thank you for never giving up on me.

An Open Letter To My Mother
Alessandra Ambrosio

Someone said that, “Of all the gifts that life has to offer, a loving mother is the greatest of them all.” – It would take a million papers to write down how grateful I am for having someone like you in my life. Even though you had always seen my flaws and that I always push you to your limit, you still choose to love me unconditionally. Here are seven reasons that sums up on why I am thankful for having a loving mother like you.

Thank you:

1. For Taking Care of Me

I was lost how many times throughout my journey and you were still there willing to guide me. I fell down how many times but you were still there waiting to catch me. You were there for me through my tough days and even though you are having your own problems, you always choose to help me first before yours. I failed multiple times in my life, however, you were still there for me filling my life with inspirations and motivations to stand up and be brave.

2. For Understanding Me

Even though I always push you to the limit especially when I was younger, you never got tired of giving me your patience over and over again. You never gave up on me despite of the things we have been through in our lives. You never left me when I thought you were disappointed of me failing to follow directions in life.

3. For Sacrificing Everything For Me

You were always ready to move places just to give me the best life possible, such as leaving your country where you grew up just to bring me to place where there are many opportunities waiting for me. You were always ready what to do no matter how busy you are. You were still there beside me when there are times that I need you the most.

4. For Supporting Me

You considered my dreams as your dreams as well. You encouraged me so well to pursue my goals with passion in life. You were successful in inspiring me to do what I wanted to do and that you were always there to check if I am doing the right thing.

5. For Accepting Me The Way I Am

I may be annoying most of the time, but you still accepted me the way I am. You still choose to love me despite of how much you have to deal with me.

6. For Raising Me Well

I grew up learning too much about myself because you taught me how to accept the reality of life. You helped me how to deal with my emotions. You taught me how to be mature. And you kept on reminding me not to tolerate bad things in life.

7. For Giving All Your Best

In this world, mothers are always the best. You always think about your children first before yourself. And so you are the best gift that God has given to me. You are worth more than a jewel and I am thankful enough for having someone like you in my life.

Mom, I love you so much.

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.

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.
