An Open Letter Celebrating Our Three Year Anniversary
Megan Green

Tommy,

I can't believe I can say that I have been dating my best friend for three years now. Everyone always says this, but it feels like I have known you forever and that we have been dating for longer than three years. You know everything about me, we do everything together, you've seen me at my best and at my worst and I can truly say that you are my best friend. I'm so lucky to say that.

Before I dated you, I was in a long-term relationship with someone else. I thought everything about that relationship was so perfect until we started dating. Tommy, you have taught me so many things about love and even life in general that I never learned with anyone else before. It's as if any past relationships have led up to this one. The best one I can ever ask for.

You've taught me so many things. You've taught me the true meaning of love. What it feels like to be loved and how to love someone unconditionally. But you've also taught me some of life's most valuable lessons. You live your life to the fullest without caring about what other people think about you.

But you also stand up for what you believe in and are willing to fight for what's right. You are always lending a helping hand and always trying to help the common good. Your personality is one of the best I've ever seen and I try to follow in your footsteps. Not only are you an amazing boyfriend, but also an overall great human for our society.

Our relationship is unique in that even though we go to different colleges in different states, we are so close. Distance doesn't really affect us like it does to others. We've beat any statistics saying that long distance relationships don't last. And I am proud to say that.

These past three years truly have been some of the best years of my life. And I truly mean that. Despite the physical distance, you always make an effort to come out to all my shows and sorority events. We talk everyday and never get bored. You've even helped me with girl drama and have even gotten involved to stop the problem. You're so good to me and I don't deserve it. But boy am I lucky and blessed. So happy three year anniversary. I love you more than you'll ever know.

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.

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.
