An Open Letter To My Soul Sister

Thank you for coming into my life.

I went into this semester scared that I wouldn't make any friends, and I felt alone for the first couple weeks of the semester. I remember meeting you and not really liking you, but one night, we clicked. It was the night before the weekend that our whole squad was going away for our friend's birthday. We were all jamming to music, and we decided to have a dance battle with our amazing dancing skills.

We related to each other and we found out how similar we really were.

Over the semester, we found out more and more similarities, and we became closer and closer. Whether it was getting waffles and ice cream from Holly Pointe or going out to parties, we always knew how to have a good time.

I started to feel less alone and more like I had a person at school. I can't even explain how much you've changed my life for the better. Because of you, I'm a better person, more confident, and I care less about what other people think.

Now that I'm going to be commuting next semester, we're both scared things are going to change. I know that you're sad I won't be on campus. To be honest, I am too, but I'm going to make sure we still hang out just as much. I'm going to make sure that we have just as much fun.

Never have I ever felt this bond with a person. We're literally the same person. We have the same love for "Be More Chill" and theatre. We both are extremely weird. We both care about our studies, but love to have a good time. We're actually soul sisters and we definitely met for a reason.

We can't have these many things in common and met for no greater reason at all.

I'm so glad I met you. You turned out to be one of the best friends I've had so quickly. You say you care and you show it. You're there. Our friendship just goes to show how the amount of time you've known someone means nothing in how close you can be with someone.

I know it's going to be sad that I'm not living on campus, but Spring 2019 will be my turn to crash in your dorm. We're going to have just as good of a time, maybe even better because I'll be able to drive us wherever whenever we want. We can still have our late night study sessions and our late night adventures. It's all going to be okay.

The end of the semester doesn't mean we'll be any less close, and just because I won't be living on campus, it doesn't mean that I won't be there all the time.

Thank you for coming into my life. Thank you for being an amazing friend. Thank you for being my shoulder to cry on. Thank you for all the laughs. Thank you for being the friend I needed.

Thank you for being my soul sister.

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.

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.
