It's about time.

An Open Letter To My First Boyfriend

Well, it's about time.

Just kidding. Good things take time.

Thank you for coming into my life and making me feel wanted. It means a lot. I want to let you know a few things so you know what you're in for. I don't want to scare you away so please stop reading this right now if you're starting to regret your decisions. I'm awesome, I promise.

I am fluent in sarcasm and don't know when to stop. I insult you because I love you and I think I'm funny, not because you're bothering me. But, I will be completely honest if you do bother me, just be prepared.

I like my alone time but that doesn't mean I don't want to be alone with you. I am perfectly content with us reading books on separate sides of the room. Or even going to the mall together but splitting up as soon as we get there to go to our respective favorite places. I like to be alone, but good company isn't something I'll pass up.

Another thing is my fascination with being outside. There is nothing I love more than life than flowers and stars. Nothing. If I'm ever mad, those two things are the way to my heart. It's almost an instant fix.

I have an obsession with rom-coms. I've had the idea of what a perfect relationship looks like in my head for as long as I can remember. But, the image has been constructed by movies. I recognize that life isn't a fairytale and not everything works out the way I want it, but sometimes I might need a friendly reminder.

This is common among women but, I'm always right. I have a hard time admitting when I'm wrong, and I will go to lengths to prove when you are. Let me down gently. I'm a little stubborn.

The thing about me is that when I get invested in something, I'm all in. I don't half-ass anything and I don't pretend. I hope it's the same for you. I don't like being lied to or used. I have a tough time getting over things, especially when they break my heart.

All in all, I know you'll be a good boyfriend because I wouldn't like you if you were an asshole. Just saying. Good luck with me. I think I'm pretty fun to hang out with. Also, yes we might take some of those cute couple pictures just to prove to my friends that boys do like me. And yes, I can have a boyfriend.

I promise to be a good girlfriend. I know you'll be worth the wait. ;)

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.
