Shoutout To My Long Distance BFF

Distance means literally nothing.

Shoutout To My Long Distance BFF
Her Campus

There are a ton of mixed emotions on any kind of long distance relationships. Boyfriends or best friends. Well, I am talking the best friend kind. She rocks.

I met this awesome chick on my journey through the Disney College Program, and had the amazing opportunity to be her roommate, and even better we shared bunk beds. "More room for activities" as Brennan from Stepbrothers would say. So we started our journey as roommates. Both of us had no idea what we were getting ourselves into by being lifeguards for Walt Disney World. Crazy stuff, man.

Shoutout to my lifeguard roomie, and best friend Aurelia! We lived together for an entire semester, and we went into it totally blind. You are from Texas, and I am from Maryland, there was no way we were meeting before this.

I am so glad I did meet you though. You have changed my life for the better. You were there for it all. We went from being complete strangers to now being best friends, and you even call yourself my adopted sister. I would say that is an accurate statement.

Our program ended, and we both had no idea what we were going to do. We were going from living with each other to practically being on opposite sides of the country. You were my person, even though you still don't get the reference from Grey's Anatomy (still love you).

Distance has yet to kill our friendship, and I do not think that it ever will. I had the roughest school year of my life after we went home, and you were there for it all. Just a phone call away.

I honestly don't know how to thank you for everything that you have done for me. You are just a great human being. You have brought me so many laughs, and we have done some crazy shit together. Looking back on it, I still get a good laugh.

You even came out to visit me for Thanksgiving break, and even though the trip was way shorter than we would have both liked it to be, it was still the best break I could have asked for. You are going to hate me for this, but please don't ever get on a skateboard. Ever. I don't think you want to eat shit again. Don't worry, the video is locked away in a vault. Not really. Peep my twitter if you wanna get a good laugh.

Thank you to you, and your love for the outdoors for opening my eyes to some of the beautiful parks of central Florida. If it weren't for you, I would have never done some of the things that we did. I would have to say tubing at Rainbow River was probably the funniest. Once again a good laugh.

So overall, I am trying to say thank you for being my best friend, and not letting the distance kill our friendship. We don't see each other often, and it can be hard, but its still kickin'.

I am sure you are rocking peoples worlds with your internships, and everything you are doing at school. That is just who you are!

I cannot wait to see you again, and make some awesome new memories, and stories.

To all the girls, and even guys out there that have a best friend 1,000 miles away from them, don't let it discourage you. That friend is still your friend. Facetime, Skype, Snapchat, and all those other sites are a beautiful way to stay connected, so just do it!

Distance is nothing but a number, and it will not take my best friend.

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.

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.

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.
