An Open Letter To The Best Friend I Made In College
Samantha Davey

Dear Adri,

It's crazy to think that we have become such close friends in such a short amount of time. I find it hard to believe that my boyfriend grew up with you, and you just so happened to transfer to UAlbany and I met you. It's like we were meant to be best friends, right?

Elvis told me how alike we were and how close of friends we would become. I was so happy that I would be introduced to a new person here at UAlbany, especially since I had gone through my first year here and felt like I didn't have many friends. But I'm so glad you came along because you're honestly one of the only people here at college that truly gets me and always understands what I'm thinking. We always look at each other and know what we're thinking and just start laughing, and after these moments I'm just mindblown at the fact that Elvis was right...we are literally the same people in two different bodies (lol).

Sometimes I wish we met sooner, but I think you came at the right time. Sometimes I also forget that we became friends such a short time ago because it feels like we've been friends for years. In just one semester, we have created so many memories I will always cherish, and I know there are so much more to come. From our Target and Marshals trips to watching YouTube videos in bed and eating ice cream. I'm so happy you have become one of my lifelong friends here at college and we get to experience this crazy journey together.

Thank you for being my friend, Adri. Without you, I wouldn't have a best friend not only here at college, but in life. Thank you for always being there to support and motivate me, to comfort me and for being my right hand. I'll always do the same for you and be there whenever you need me. I love you, here's to being forever friends.

Love,

Sam

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.
