One Person I’m Glad I Met

We all meet people in our lives, and they shape us into the people we are, whether we are aware of it or not. However, there are some people in our lives who know just how much they have changed our lives, and have helped us to become the person we are today.

The one person I am glad to have met is one of my best friends. We met way back in sixth grade, when I was young and foolish, and had a very narrow mindset about a lot of things. However, through the year, we became friends, and I slowly felt myself becoming more open minded.

The last two years of middle school we drifted, until high school brought us back, and from there our amazing friendship flourished. I learned many things from my best friend. I learned what it means to be adventurous, not care what people think, stand up for myself and I became more aware of the world around me, and more open minded about things I definitely wasn't open minded about before.

My best friend made me a better person, one that I am proud of today, and if it weren't for her, I might not be this person that I am.

I've learned to question things. I've been inspired to create things, think things, do things I've never created, thought of or done before. My best friend has brought wonder and magic into my life, and stern words and important lessons that I've needed to hear as well, all when necessary.

So, I owe practically my life to her. I wouldn't be the person I am without her, and for that, I feel blessed.

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.

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.
