12 Thank Yous For My College Best Friend
Kelsey Dietrich

College is an overwhelming time. The variety of adjustments that must be made coupled with the necessity of identifying some sort of life plan is plenty to make the head of any young adult spin. What's cool about college is that you are surrounded by all new people and have many opportunities to begin new friendships. College wouldn't be the same without your best friend going through it all right alongside you.

Here are 12 thank yous for my college best friend.

1. Thank you for striking up the first conversation. 

Who would have thought that our first conversation would turn into constant conversations?!

2. Thank you for getting through some of the hardest classes with me. 

Your companianship was a huge motivating factor to keep me going to class.

3. Thank you for always listening to me. 

No matter what the topic or the time of day, I truly appreciate your listening ears all of the time.

4. Thank you for supporting all of my ideas.

Especially as they continued to evolve.

5. Thank you for helping with homework. 

Two minds are better than one.

6. Thank you for splitting Chegg .

Desperate times call for desperate measures, so cutting the cost in half is another bonus.

7. Thank you for understanding me. 

Being in college at the same time, you also get it.

8. Thank you for loving my family. 

Not everyone can say they have an active groupchat with their mom and best friend.

9. Thank you for encouraging me to try new things. 

A little push outside of my comfort zone from a supportive source is necessary every once in a while.

10. Thank you for always answering.

FaceTime, texts, snapchats... all were answered even though we had JUST been with each other in real life.

11. Thank you for making some of the best memories with me. 

You helped make college even more enjoyable.

12. Thank you for being my best friend all throughout these undergraduate years. 

And hopefully for the rest of life!

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.

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.
