My Boyfriend Is My Best Friend, And No I Am Not Sorry

He dances with me when I am happy and is there during my achievements.

My Boyfriend Is My Best Friend, And No I Am Not Sorry
Izabel Horn

We all have that one individual that is our person. They are the ones that you turn to when life gets hard and the ones you celebrate with when little victories happen. To me, that person is my boyfriend and I am not sorry for that.

Most people say that your boyfriend should not be a top priority of yours. They say that you should not chase your boyfriend to where he goes. But I think that is all wrong. What is the problem with being best friends with the person that you are going to spend the rest of your life with.

I know that my boyfriend knows me better than anyone else does. Sometimes, he knows me better than I know myself. He knows my favorite foods and the foods that I will absolutely not touch. He is the one I call when something goes down in the house or I just need to rant. He is the one that I turn to for advice and the one that gets the first call when I am happy.

I do not plan to chase him and set up house wherever he goes. I do not plan to make my life all around him and what he does. I still plan to have my own life and my own career. I just want him to be a part of that and I want to be a part of his.

Many others fight that your world should not revolve around your boyfriend. They say that it is impossible to keep a relationship through the tough times and when you are finding yourself. But I say that is wrong. I say that you are able to find yourself while being with your boyfriend.

My boyfriend has helped me through a lot in my life. He has been by my side when I am faced with trials and he has been there when I have victories. He gives me a shoulder to cry on and lets me rant when I need to. He dances with me when I am happy and is there during my achievements.

I know that I can support myself on my own. I know that I don't need a boyfriend to make me happy. But I would ranter not. He is my best friend and I am not sorry for that.

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.
