In honor of Mother's Day...

My Mother Is My Best Friend
Sabrina Galaviz

There are very few teenagers who can genuinely say their mother is their best friend. I am blessed enough to have an extremely strong relationship with the extremely strong woman I call my mom.

My mom is a warrior princess. There is no greater fitting term I can find for her than that. She is a champion and fighter above all. She has overcome great adversities while still maintaining a grace that so many people lack.

My mom is a mentor. She's an excellent leader. She has given me my communication and people skills, which I closely use in identifying who I am as person. Seeing her accomplish so much in academics and the work place has shown me all that I am capable of as well.

My mom is a comedian. She pulls goofy faces and jokes on the daily. There hasn't been a day of my life that she hasn't made laugh. We practically cry because we laugh so hard so frequently. We just click with our humor and silly way of speaking.

My mom is a woman I aspire to be. She has such wisdom and strength, such beauty and grace. I hope to imitate all of her best qualities, I know she's already passed many on to me. She does so much good for others and has always cared to her deepest capabilities.

My mom is a great comfort. She is the only person who has always been there for me. Anytime I need help or the tears came rolling down she was the one there. She was the one there every time I broke down. When I had no one else I had her.

My mom is my best friend. At the end of the day I will always have her. I miss her when we spend too much time apart. I cannot imagine a world without her. Shopping, playing cards, and binge watching the Gilmore Girls are pastimes reserved for her. We have a special way of communicating and spending time together that I wouldn't trade for the word. I love my mom.

Thank you for everything mom. Happy Mother's Day.

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.

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.
