A Thank You Note To My Friends From Home

Dear BFFs,

First off, thanks for always being there - even when you're not. We may not see each other as much as we used to, but I know I can always count on endless amounts of group texts, phone calls, and FaceTimes whenever necessary.

Thanks for the constant life updates on school, boys, and college friends. Our separate lives away from each other may seem foreign at times but I know we all feel as if we're sharing the same experiences together, even if we are not all physically there.

Thanks for all the adventures we have had together and all the adventures we will undoubtedly embark on in the future. No matter how much time we spend away from each other, nothing ever changes once we're reunited again.

Thanks for the infinite inside jokes that no one else understands, and the infinite laughs that accompany them. I'm thoroughly amazed that we all happened to stumble upon each other, because I'm convinced no one else in the world shares our strange sense of humor.

Thanks for sharing the love for the same movies and TV shows, and for always making references to our favorite ones. Let's face it, we are basically the cast of Sex and the City.

Thanks for the High School Musical marathons during every major school break. They will never, ever get old.

Thanks for the lazy nights spent sitting in the basement, playing card games, and eating Mango Peach Salsa.

Thanks for sticking around as we grew out of our awkward stages together - even though sometimes I'm convinced our lives may all just be one prolonged awkward stage.

Speaking of which, thanks for sending random reminders in our group message of awkward moments we've endured together. Those always account for a good laugh.

Thanks for the five-hour-long phone calls because we've been away from each other for too long.

Thanks for being there through the bad times and the good times alike. You are constant encouragers, shoulders to cry on, and the biggest supporters.

Thanks for being real. I know I can always count on you to let me know when I'm overreacting, when I'm being irrational, or when I'm about to make a not-so-wise decision.

Thanks for every midnight snack, midnight drive, and midnight conversation. Those are memories that can never be topped.

Thanks for being my people. I don't know what I would do without your crazy, thoughtful, fun, hilarious, wonderful selves.

Thanks for a friendship that I know will last forever, even as we go our separate ways. In the words of Carrie Bradshaw, "dreams change, trends come and go, but friendships never go out of style."

Thanks for always giving me a reason to be excited about coming home.

Basically, thanks for doing life with me even from miles away. Even a thousand miles can't keep us apart. Now get your butts home so we can hangout.

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.
