Dogs are man’s best friend. Although they can’t speak our language, they have a way of communicating and connecting with us. Dogs bring joy to our lives, and are always there for us. Here are 10 ways in which your dog is just like your best friend.

1. You have fun no matter what you’re doing together

Whether you’re going for a crazy outdoor adventure or vegging on the couch, your furry friend is always up to spend that time with you.

2. You take the best selfies

Sometimes they’re cute, but other times they’re goofy and borderline embarrassing. You end up saving all of them anyway because you’re adorable together, even in the weirdest selfies.

3. You’re there for each other, even on the bad days

No matter if you had an awful day at work, or you’re just feeling a bit under the weather, your dog is always there to comfort you and make you feel better. Of course, you’d do the same for him.

4. You’re overly comfortable around each other

You can be your weird and wild self around your dog. Plus, your pooch doesn’t care if you smell or have no make-up on. A best friend will never judge you. In fact, your dog doesn’t even understand the concept of nudity, so he’s cool with it.

5. You keep each other active

Your dog is the best work-out partner you could ask for. Fido is always up for some exercise, and will never cancel plans on you. You’ll have so much more fun exercising with a pal by your side. He’ll be sure to keep you accountable on days that you have no motivation to get off the couch.

6. He makes the best wingman

Not only does your dog give you a reason to go out and about, but he’s perfect at helping you strike up a conversation. No dog lover can resist stopping to greet your furry sidekick, and he’ll help you weed out anyone who won’t be willing to adopt ten more dogs with you.

7. You can make him wear anything

You can dress your dog up for a night on the town or just for kicks. As long as there are treats involved, your pooch is cool with you pulling an old shirt over his head.

8. You can nap together

Real friends take naps together. Plus, your dog will keep you warm and safe while you sleep.

9. He’s a great listener

Your dog will listen to your problems and whatever else is on your mind. He will never question you, interrupt you, or give you unwanted advice.

10. He's forever loyal

Your dog will love you unconditionally, and always be there to protect you. This kind of loyalty can only be found in the truest of friends.

11. You’re always happy to see each other

Whether you’ve been gone for five minute or five days, your dog will always greet you with a fast tail and so much excitement. You feel the same way about coming home to your dog because nothing makes your day more than being greeted with so much love and giving as much in return.

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.

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.
