To The Mom Who Gives Me The World
Sara Durphy

Mom,

Let me start off by telling you how truly proud of you I am and how proud I am to be your daughter. In the past three years you have broken so many boundaries and made me so proud. You have done broad street twice going on three times this year (I am so excited to take part in this with you). You ran not only one but two half marathons, broad street and a 10k within four months. When I came to Disney and watched you cross the finish line at the Princess half marathon I was so proud of you. Then next thing I know you did Tinker Bell in Disneyland not even four months later and only a week after broad street.

Just to show how amazing my mom is here are all the medals from the races that she has done. As well as her bibs from all of her races. Just a look at some of the medals that she has; Broad Street 2016 and 2017, Star Wars Dark Side 10k 2017, Mickeys Virtual Running Shorts, Mickeys Wine and Dine 5k, Hot Chocolate 15k and more!!


Not only have you made me proud with running but you make me proud to be your daughter in general. I know that we argue and sometimes I can be a lot to handle but I still appreciate you and everything that you do for me. I know that no matter how much we argue you will still have my back.

You have also taught me so many things. You always seem to be right about everything. Like every time you tell me how you do not like someone and do not think they are a good friend in the end you are always right. I know that even though I do not always listen to you that you still always end up being right. So maybe I should take my own advice to Jack and start listening to what you have to say.

I also want to thank you. Thank you for sharing your love for Disney with me. You brought me to Disney growing up and worked so hard so that we could go on those trips and I am so appreciative of that. Thank you for always bringing me places and taking me shopping. Going shopping with you is always fun because you pick out and know my fashion sense better than I do. Thank you for letting me see the world. You have taken me to many places. You took me on cruises and to Cancun, Canada and all over the bahamas. Thank you for allowing me to travel overseas to Greece. You have never even been to Europe and you allowed me to travel over there by myself and get the experiene of a lifetime.

Most importantly, Thank you for being my mom.

Love,

Sara

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.

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.
