An Open Letter To My Boyfriend

Hey,

You mean the world to me. You aren't exactly family, not really related, but for some reason, I feel as close to you as I do my family at times. While you will never replace my family as the people who mean the most to me, at this point you pretty much are family anyways. I know sometimes you make me upset, and I try to deal with it as best as I can, but my goodness you certainly know which buttons to push don't you? I know sometimes I make you upset or need more attention than you really want to give me, and I am so thankful that you have stuck through with me to the point we are at now.

Our relationship hasn't always been rainbows and butterflies, sometimes it's been more like thunderstorms and darkness, but even then, knowing that you truly have my back, even when I do not necessarily deserve someone like you supporting me. I know sometimes we fight, and when we argue it seems like everything is going wrong, but still, I love having you around, even when you are the one who made me mad. There is little better than laughing with you because your solution to someone being upset is to make them laugh, and for that, I gotta say, thank you. Even when I try not to laugh, which is more often than not, you are the person I know who will make me laugh eventually, usually making me laugh about how I'm trying so hard not to.

I may not always be the best at reminding you how amazing you are, and how I feel about you, but I want you to know, that even when you make me cry, I never stop caring about you, or wanting you in my life. Without a doubt, you are the person I turn to for comfort about things that are trivial and stupid, and I need a hug to fix, and I am so grateful that you are nearby to tell me I am being ridiculous and make it all better for me. I hope that you will always come to me with your problems, and let me take care of you because you take care of family first, and you, sir, are family.

You are so smart and don't argue with me on that one, you know you always let me win. You are beautiful and handsome, and so good looking. You know what you want, and you don't apologize for being confident and strong. You stay true to yourself, even when I am questioning your actions, decisions, or some of the people you are close with. You don't let anyone push you around, and you don't let me let others push me around. You are supportive, without a doubt always watching my back. You know what it takes to make me laugh, and you never fail to work hard to "turn my frown upside down." You are sweet and sensitive, but strong and brave. You make sure I am happy with everything and comfortable. You may hate sharing a blanket, but in the end, you always do because you know I am always cold.

I care deeply about you, and I want to remind you that even when things aren't smooth-sailing, you can always come to me for help. No matter how annoying you are being, I will put aside whatever little argument we are having to make you feel better and to make sure you know just how much you mean to me. You may not be the perfect guy (listen you aren't Peter the pilot, ok), but I still without a doubt think that you are perfect in every way. Even the little things you do that I absolutely hate are worth enduring for you. I want you to know how much I care about you and how you have changed my life in the time that I have known you. It may not seem like very long, but it's been long enough for you to have a lasting impact on the way I live my life.

Love forever,

your girlfriend

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.

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:

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.

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.
