I'd Be Lost Without My Roomies

A letter to my pod-mates.

I'd Be Lost Without My Roomies
Kaitlin Didinger

I want to start by saying that I'm more than excited to be living alongside all of you this year. I wish that I would have had the chance to get to know you all a little bit sooner. You all have such unique and awesome personalities. I'm so proud of everything that you're all doing.

Now, there are twelve of us living in one common space. That means we aren't always going to get along; however, I want you to know that I will never hold anything against you. It would be ridiculous for me to lose a friend because of something so minute as dishes adding up in a drying rack. Even if I'm upset about something, it will blow over, I promise you. I want you all to know that I will always be here if you need someone to talk to, no matter what.

Something you should know about me is that I am sarcastic. I am an ass sometimes and I know it. It's your job to tell me when I'm pissing you off. I won't get mad, I won't be upset, I'd rather know if me telling you to get your bread off the counter for five weeks straight is actually bothering you, because it's not supposed to. I can't emphasize that enough, please tell me if I'm getting to you.

I can't wait to see what this year brings us. It's only been five weeks and I already feel like I've been blessed with so much. I can only hope that we'll continue to enjoy many family movie nights, family dinner nights (if we can ever fit that one into our schedules), service days, and so much more. I'm so excited to see what the rest of this year brings, and I'm so excited to be having this adventure with y'all. You're all beautiful people inside and out, and you shouldn't ever think otherwise.

Thanks for choosing me to room with you, I love you all.

Sincerely,

Kdiddy

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?

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.
