A Thank You Letter To My Guy Best Friend
Original

I know you’ll tease me for even writing something like this because you tease me for almost everything I do, but this all has to be said. I need you to know how much I love you, how much I appreciate you and how thankful I am to have you in my life.

We became friends by chance. I always viewed you as that chubby little boy who asked me out when we were 10-years-old. I never took the time to see your witty sense of humor or your infectious personality. But then we went to that movie, both sharing a hatred for anything scary, and the rest is history.

You quickly became my person. You became the one I would come to if I needed an honest opinion or something to laugh about. You taught me how to never take things too seriously, how to find the fun in almost anything and you even attempted to teach me how to drive stick. You were always the one I would want to tell if I had big news or needed someone to just listen. You helped me through heartbreak, you were there for all of my important milestones and you were the best prom date I could have ever asked for. You are my person.

Thank you for always knowing how to take a joke and never being afraid to give it right back to me. Thank you for just showing up at my house whenever you pleased and loving my family almost as much as I do. Thank you for giving me that hug when I came out of the pool crying from the pain in my shoulders after that mile-long swim. Thank you for the hour long FaceTime conversations and for not hanging up when all I did was vent to you about my pointless drama. Thanks for the countless rides home when I was always out of your way, the random texts to see how I am doing and for taking the effort to get to know my friends (even though you always tried to hit on all of them). I don’t know how I got so lucky to have a friend like you but I would not trade what we have for anything.

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.
