An Open Letter To My Twin

From the womb to the tomb.

An Open Letter To My Twin
Taylor James

To my twin,

Thank you for being my person. You have been there for me when nobody else was and I am so grateful to have been so lucky to have you. You make me happy, when skies are grey, and you will never know how much I love you. You have been and will always be my womb-mate. We did share a room for the first 17 years of our life. Some might call it too personal, I would have to agree. Though it was difficult, (you sure are messy!!), I wouldn't have it any other way. In a way, you have taught me how to handle a mess, and just deal with it.

Everyone always asks me, "Do you like being a twin?" The answer is simple- no. I'm kidding! Being a twin is the greatest honor. Being YOUR twin is the greatest honor. Having a twin is basically like having a forever friend. No matter what we go through, you will never be able to get rid of me. Sorry not sorry. You know me better than I know myself. When I can't find the right words to say, you can, and I am so appreciative that you are you.

I know that no matter what I go through, I know that I am not alone. I will never have to stand by myself in concert lines, when I am feeling anxious, you are there to hug me, and when I am having a rough night, your comforting words are all need. You accept me for who I am not have never ever made me feel like I don't deserve the things I have. You have always supported me with everything and I have no way to ever thank you for that.

In the end, I would love to thank you. Thank you for all of the silly inside jokes, like spunky mider. Thank you for all of the insane memories we have shared. There is no one else I would want to have a flip flop fight with. Thank you for calling off of work for me when I was too nervous to do it myself. Thank you for having sleepovers with me, just because I wanted to cuddle. You will always be my best friend and I can't wait to see what else we will experience together.

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.

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.
