An Open Letter To My Dog

Man's best friend is my best friend.

An Open Letter To My Dog
blog.vetdepot.com

One of the best parts of my childhood was coming home after school and playing with my dogs. They were always there when I got home waiting for me with wagging tails and bright eyes. "Man's best friend" is so true becauseIi've never loved someone more than my dog.

Dear "man's best friend",

Thank you so much for everything. This may seem crazy that I'm writing you, my dog, a letter, but I could honestly care less. You've grown up as I've grown up and you are just like another sibling to me. No one every quite heals my broken heart like you do with your doggy cuddles and unwanted face licks. You are always there to greet me when I get home with a friendly tail-wag and bark. Playing fetch is the highlight of my day, and cuddling with you while watching movies is the best. You are more than just a pet, you are a close family member and friend.

Humans can be cruel to each other, so this may just be why you are my real best friend. Thank you for never giving up on me. I'll never give up on you/

Love, Your Human


"You're only a dog, old fellow;
a dog, and you've had your day;
But never a friend of all my friends
has been truer than you alway."

-Julian Stearns Cutler

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.
