A Love Letter To Chocolate

You are my biggest weakness.

A Love Letter To Chocolate

Dearest Chocolate,

I am going to take this opportunity to tell you how much you mean to me…

When I was first introduced to you, probably nineteen years ago, my life changed for the better. My taste buds went crazy, and I fell in love with your creamy, rich goodness instantly.

As the years went by, I gained a deeper appreciation for you. I realized more and more that you were able to completely change my mood and make me a happier person. If I was ever experiencing a bad day, I knew that I could turn to you and then regret my sweet-binge later on.

Thank you for offering me compliments every time I open up one of your Dove chocolates. Thank you for reminding me that treating myself is okay, and that it is something that I should do in life more often. Thanks for being the epitome of perfection, especially when I need to satisfy my sweet-tooth.

One of the reasons that I adore you the most is because you take on so many forms and you’re always amazing. Nutella…don’t even get me started. Ice cream with magic shell…unbelievable combination. S’mores…mouth-watering. Fudgy brownies make me weak. Reese’s peanut butter cups…dynamic duo. Okay, I think you get the point.

I know that our relationship has been complicated at some points due to your high calorie content. I know that you’re considered somewhat healthy in your dark form, but I prefer milk. I understand that you are not the greatest thing for me to eat, but I can’t deny that you will always be a constant companion of mine.

Nothing is there to comfort me like you do when times get tough, or when I’m really stressed out. You are always available to make me feel better and make me a happier version of myself.

We have definitely had our share of rough patches throughout my life. When I started hitting my teenager years, I realized that I could no longer eat as much of you as I want. This is when I knew that you were both a blessing and a curse in my life. Too much of you would result in weight gain and would make me feel bad about myself.

This is when I started making an effort to avoid you in order to feel better and look better. Honestly, the problem was never you, it was just me understanding the importance of self-control. I also learned to appreciate you more because I would only have you in small portions. I have my moments when I need more of you than I should consume, but for the most part I have learned that you are a delicacy and that overindulging is not a positive aspect of the relationship that we share.

I don’t think that I will ever get sick of you. Nothing compares to the mouth-watering aroma that you release and your sugary taste. I always look forward to having chocolate cake on my birthday, pudding pie on Thanksgiving, hot chocolate during the cold wintery days, and all of the chocolate candy bars that you can think of on Halloween. Your taste is incredibly satisfying; I wouldn’t trade you for anything else in this world.

Love Always,

A Chocolate Lover

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.
