To My Little Sister, The Girl Who Always Has My Back
Karisa Wallace

When we were younger, we fought like cats and dogs. I would pick on you more than anyone I knew. I would make fun of you, and tease you. No one else was allowed to, though. Only I was because you were my sister, and that's just how it worked.

Now, we don't fight as much, but I still won't let anyone else make fun of you. The past two or three years, you've quickly become my best friend. You're the person I go to when I want to rant about everything under the sun. You're the person I go to when I need advice. You're the person who will tell me like it is, every time I need to hear it. You're the one who's there whenever I need it. You're the one who will pick me back up when I fall completely. You're the one who loves me, even when I'm unlovable. I couldn't handle this life without you, little sister.

You are a pain in the butt sometimes, but as far as I'm concerned I'll take that any day. You are incredible at everything you attempt, but more than anything you are KILLER at volleyball. You shove me down, just to help me back up after you laugh. The adventures we have are memories that will last a lifetime. You're a leader the world needs, someone who's brave enough to tell everyone what they need to hear, but really don't want to. You, my dear sister, are unstoppable. You're golden.

I know I don't tell you enough, but I love you more than you know. I pray you have the best life ever, and that I get to experience as much of it with you as I can. I know you're going to be super successful, and I can't wait to see what you decide to do in life. Thank you for standing by my side for your entire life, and allowing me to become a big sister. This life would absolutely, positively kill me if I didn't have you. You make life fun, and I'm so glad I have you in mine.

Enjoy the little things, kid. Life flies by, and you should enjoy every last minute of it possible. I love you more than you know.

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.
