A Letter To My New Best Friend

My raddest, newest BFFL:

It hasn't been years like it has with other friendships-in fact it's only been a few months, but I couldn't and don't want to ever imagine my life without you. You're one of the best things to ever happen to me, thank you for everything you do. Here's what I'm thankful for more in depth.

Thanks for calling me out on my bullshit. When I'm acting out, behaving like an idiot or even an asshole, you're always there to put me right back in my place. It may annoy me and even piss me off but I'm so happy I have someone who even cares how I act.

Thanks for being a kickass wingwoman. You go with me just about everywhere and even moved in with me!! You help me with awkward social gathering and those awkward in public moments. You're fucking awesome dude. Thanks for being basically my in-home mom.

Thanks for never making me feel guilty and ashamed. If I need help I know you're always there to help me no matter what. You never put me out with my issues and even help me solve them. I mean...hello!!! You we're with me for my first wreck and we almost died, and then you helped me pay my expensive ass towing bill. I love you so friggin much, man.

Thank you for being happy when I'm happy when good things go on in my life. "OMG, THAT'S SO COOL YOU GOT NEW GLASSES/I don't give one fuck." You want to see me happy (It's vise-versa btw.) even if it means we see less of each other.

Thank you for supporting the one I love. I know you and my dear boyfriend butt heads often, but thanks for putting up with him.


Thanks for always making me feel loved and safe. And thanks for just getting "it".

P.S. Thanks for almost dying with me. Wouldn't want to almost die with anyone else. <3

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

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.

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. I mean, really, what's the point in entering a relationship with someone if you don't know whether or not you're compatible on a very basic level?

Consider these 21 questions to ask in the talking stage when getting to know that new guy or girl you just started talking to:

Challah vs. Easter Bread: A Delicious Dilemma

Is there really such a difference in Challah bread or Easter Bread?

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.
