An Open Letter To My Best Friend

I'd be truly lost without you.

Dear best friend,

When we first met, I had no idea you would end up being my partner in crime. Now years later, I can't imagine my life without you in it.

Through the years, you've never missed a thing. You were there at 2 a.m. for my anxiety attack that stemmed from yet another irrational thought. You were there for all the drama with other friends, the recurrent heartbreak and fights. You were there for everything throughout the high school years. You have always been my biggest cheerleader and my greatest support system. No one was happier than you when I got accepted to college and we both knew I was onto my next chapter in life. You are such a huge component to who I have become as a person. You are my inspiration and my motivation to keep pushing forward and to keep putting my best foot forward every day. You are my person.

I want to thank you for your unwavering commitment to me and our friendship the past few years. Thank you for being there for me not only when I need you, but especially when I don't. Thank you for never giving up on me even when the rest of the world walked out. Thank you for your compassion in times of sadness and your cheerfulness in times of joy. Thank you for constantly encouraging me to take risks and discover new things. Thank you for having my best interest in mind at all times. Most of all, thank you for being who you are because who you are is wonderful and I love everything about you.

When I look back on memories with you, I can't help but smile. All those Friday nights we wasted together just sitting up in bed talking for hours. It was nothing at the time, but now it's everything. Going anywhere and everywhere once you got your license. It's always been us against the world. We've spent years making this unbreakable bond between the two of us, a bond I will forever cherish even if it one day breaks.

I owe you the world for these past years we've spent by each other's sides. I anticipate what the future holds for us and I thank God for every day I spend being able to call you my best friend. I hope there never comes a day where I'm unable to say that. Even if there is, I want you to know, more than anything, that I will still always lend an ear or come running when you need someone. I butterfly promise.

Yours truly,

Your best friend

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.
