An Open Letter To My Best Friend

Dear Best Friend,

Thank you. I don't even know if you really know that you are one of my best friends, but you are.

I have friends I can talk about guys to, friends I can talk about my family to and friends I can talk about school to, but you are the only person I can talk to about all of these things and more. I know I can talk to you about anything, and you're the first person I go to text when something insane happens in my life (or when I find a super cute picture of a dog). You are always there when I need someone.

You take my nervous breakdowns like a champ, and I always feel better after talking to you. I feel like I've known you forever, and I can't imagine my life without you. Neither of us are sappy people (except when it comes to super cute pictures of dogs), but I needed you to know how much I appreciate you. You always have my best interests in mind. No matter how much shit you are going through in your own life, you always have my back.


You put up with my horrible (but undeniably hilarious) puns. Some people get annoyed with double texts, but somehow you still manage to respond my quintuple texts. I'd say you're like an older brother, but I think you know too much about my personal life for even that to be an accurate description of our relationship. Anyways, I just wanted to say thank you. You probably don't hear it enough. You deserve the best in life, and I can't wait to see what you will accomplish.

I'd say don't forget me when you're successful, but we both know I would never go long enough without talking to you for you to be able to forget me.

Sincerely,

Your Best Friend. Whether you like it or not.

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.
