To The Guy Who Has Become My Best Friend

I'm glad some of those bad things happened, because if they didn't, I wouldn't have become so close to you.

(Honestly, you probably won’t even know this is about you unless I tell you.)

Nevermind, you figured out this article was about you when I had to ask you a question (stupid me).

We are not the definition of “best friends” that everybody else has. We don’t hang out, but that’s because we can’t, it would cause way too many problems. Only because in this generation a guy and a girl apparently can’t be “just friends”. People always have to put a label on everything. It’s not fair. (but hey, what is right? Life sure isn’t.)

We have just recently become close. You honestly just don’t know how much you have really helped me these past few months. I honestly don’t know how I would have made it. I have been at my lowest and just talking to you throughout the day changed my mind about a lot of things. I really thought about giving up, but having you there to talk to everyday hope a hell of a lot. You helped me love myself. I’ve never loved myself more than I do right now. You made me realize I do deserve a lot better than what I’ve had and had to go through.

I want to say how strong of a person you are. You have been through quite a lot yourself but you would never be able to tell. You’re very good at hiding things. I'm proud of you for the person you have become and the wonderful man you are yet to be. I hope when you go off to college you don’t forget about me and that we will still talk and catch up from time to time even if we don’t talk every day like we do now. It will be okay. You have very big plans ahead of you and I hope the college you want to go to accepts you and I hope you find the girl of your dreams. I probably won’t like her at first, but eventually, I'll come around. I do expect to meet her one day soon, when you do find her, and I promise she's out there. It may take some time, but she’s out there somewhere.(hell, she just might be lost haha). You’ll find her and you’ll realize why it never worked out with anyone else.

Now lastly, I want to say thank you, thanks for always reminding me that you’re doing your abs because it reminds me to do mine (even if I don’t always do them every night, hey most nights count right?) Thanks for never getting tired of my constant complaining about the same things. (I promise I'll find something new to rant about, but Bio will always be one of those things. That'll never change.) Thanks for always making me put school first and telling me just to text you when I get done with my school work. Thank you for always inviting me to come work out! (I really got to start coming more often) Thanks for always believing in me when I don’t always believe in myself. Thank you for reminding me to stay off my phone while driving (even though half of time I still don’t listen, sorry.) Thank you for making me a better me whether you have realized it or not. You’ve made a big impact in my life.

Signed,

A girl who sends you way too many Snapchat videos of myself singing

P.S. don’t ever let a girl treat you less than what you deserve. And I hope that one day we can actually hang out and make some memories together, so I'll have some stories to tell to my kids about you and not just how you saved my life (even though that’s a pretty great story to tell).

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

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.

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:

Challah vs. Easter Bread: A Delicious Dilemma

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.
