An Open Letter To My Best Guy Friend

Dear Best Guy Friend,

Thank you so much for all that you have done for me. You are not a girl so the amount of girl talk we have is extraordinary. You are always there when I need you most and you always make sure that I am okay even when I don’t deserve it.

You have gone through my breakups with me and pretended to hate them just as much as I did even when I was in the wrong. You act like the older brother I never had and for that I thank you. So much has happened between us from fights to laughs to confusion. We never let go and you still hold such a special place in my heart.

I am not writing this letter for that reason though I am writing this letter because we are growing up and it is time that I say this. You are handsome and someone someday will see that. I am so sad every time I hear you talking about being alone and I just want to fix it for you. I know that at this stage in life we all go through that loneliness phase even when we aren’t alone but I want you to know it will get better.

I want you to know that I know for you this year is going to be tough I can see it in the way you talk. I can see it in the way you handle life and even though it is rough for me already as well I will have your back the way you had mine from the beginning. I know that I am normally the one that needs a friend and needs the saving, but I want you to know that I know that you need some saving sometimes too and that I love you and I will be there for you in that sense as well.

We have laughed and cried together and we have grown up together at this point. You were there the day I was reborn and you were there the day I got cheated on. You were even there recently when I found the first man to ever treat me like a princess and you smiled a big smile for me. We may have had our fights and you may have walked out once or twice and vice versa, but I want you to know that no matter where life takes me I love you and I will be here for you every step of the way just like you have been for me.

With Love,

The Girl You Always Saved

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.
