To My Best Friend From Senior Year

I'll be losing my number one in command

Dear best friend,

at the end of this summer, you'll be going into your senior year of college. Now, what the heck does that mean for me? When you leave, who is going to be my wise friend to tell me that it's all going to be okay. On my nights when I have absolutely no idea what's going on in my life, who's going to be there to work through it with me? Not only have you shown me how to make it through college and all the cool college things, but you've shown me how to keep pushing and always try to look at the positive side of things.

I have no idea who is going to give me advice about all my baby problems, and I have no idea who is really going to pick me up at my worst. You've done so much for me while I've been at college, and it's scary to know that once you're gone and graduated that I won't have that anymore. You've already moved onto the big leagues and will live in an apartment. I no longer will be able to waddle on up to your room and squeal with girlish joy when we are about to go out... I'll have to take the bus. Ugh, you're so old.

With my failure of a love life, I don't know who's going to defend me and keep my spirits up and tell me that the dumb boys aren't worth it. That was always your job.You have always had my back and looked on the bright side for me, you've always told me how to move on and you have given me the words to keep fighting and getting up, even when I felt like I couldn't.

I don't know who will take endless photos with me until we get the picture just right. More importantly, I really have no idea who is going to eat endless amounts of tortellini with me. I mean really, who loves those darn things more than we do? No idea.

I don't know who will ride around in the car with me looking for a parking spot in C-Lot, and scream when we snag a spot before someone who was driving around us like a jerk. I do not know who will bring their car back with me and ride around on the bus until we get to the dining hall to eat more tortellini, we literally eat so much of it, sheesh.

Truth is, I'm really going to miss you, and it's going to be so weird not having you around my senior year. Fingers crossed you stay around campus, but if you don't, I'll be glad to have everything you taught me in my back pocket and be able to keep the memories and words you gave me in my head and in my heart. I'm going to miss you so much, but I'm really happy to have this last year coming up with you. Let's make this summer, and last year together, one to remember.

Love,

your junior friend.

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:

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.
