A Poem For My Friend Who Transferred
Brianna Wiles

So you transferred. And left me here to fend for myself, to find that new friend who's kind of like you but will never replace you. To open up to someone new kind of like you

So you transferred. I had a lot of emotions about it. Angry, sad and happy. Knowing it was for your best interest, I was still emotional! They were all mixed into one. Contemplating if I should text you or not.

So you transferred. I’m angry because I had to find out about it. Knowing you were leaving me here. To do what we do alone, without you. To laugh at that one girl alone. To rant about that boy alone. To complain about waking up alone. To complaining about you not getting sleep alone.

So you transferred. I was sad because you are my ride or die. You are the key to our three people ring. The fight through it all. The silent but deadly one. The person with dope car and silly dad. The one my parents thought was a better influence on me than me to you. The one who got the award that we have to share now.

So you transferred. I was happy because I knew you need to go your own way this year. Had to find who you are. Be who you are. Do what you want to do. Going on a great path. Going to do bigger and better things. Following your dreams. Making you a better you. Fighting for what you know you have to do.

So you transferred. Thank you for being my friend. Hope to see you soon. Hope the new school treats you well. Hope you find that girl that's kind of like me but won't replace me. Open up to someone new like me.

So you transferred. I’m okay now about it all. And I'm really excited to see you grow there. Have fun! But don't do anything I would do! And most importantly, don’t forget about me!

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

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.

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:

Challah vs. Easter Bread: A Delicious Dilemma

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.
