To my lover, my best friend, my soulmate;

There's so many things I wish I could say, but don't know how. You're the best thing to happen to me, and I am beyond blessed to have you in my life. I never knew that love wasn't supposed to be so hard until I met you. Everything with you comes so easily to me. You can make me smile and laugh without even trying. You and I have so many little quirky inside jokes, and it never fails to brighten my day when I get a text from you. I love that you'll call me when I'm having a bad day, or that you'll eat peanut butter and jelly sandwiches with me between classes. I love sleeping next to you, and spending the day with you. I love going out to breakfast, or going to the gym, or really going anywhere with you. But a lot of the things I've just listed are all materialistic. But you give me so so much more than materialistic things. You give me happiness and strength, courage and love. You give me loyalty and faith. You show me how I should be treated, and you show me why it hasn't worked with anyone else. You calm down my anxiety, and understand my silly little quirks. You understand how hurt I've been before, and try your absolute hardest to make sure I never feel that way again. You're never pushy, and I don't think there's ever been a time when you weren't willing to listen or willing to try to understand where I was coming from. You love me when I'm not wearing any makeup, or I haven't done my hair in days. You love me in sweatpants and you're quick to tell me how beautiful you think I am when I'm shoving a burger and fries in my mouth. You don't buy me a lot of things but thats really fine with me because I would rather make memories with you that will last a life time than get things that will break or get worn out. But I'm glad we agree that we don't want our relationship to break or get worn out, and that you're willing to compromise with me to continue our silly, but loving relationship. As corny as it sounds, you really are my better half, and I'm so thankful for you and all of the memories we already have and for all of the memories yet to come. I hope one day that I'll be able to roll over in bed and lay my head on your chest as your wife. I love you, always and forever.

Love,

Your Other Half

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.

Whether you met your new love interest online, through mutual friends, or another way entirely, you'll definitely want to know what you're getting into. 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:

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.
