There is no better friend than a sister, and there is no better sister than you.

A Thank You Letter To My Older Sisters
Natalie Wilson

Dear my big sisters,

There are not enough words in the world to describe how much you mean to me and how much I truly am grateful to have you in my life.

Thank you for being the best role model I can look up to. You both have accomplished so much in your life so far and I hope to fill your shoes and be as successful as you guys are one day.

Thank you for breaking in mom and dad for me. I’m not just saying that since I’m the youngest and get away with more, but because you set the standards for being a daughter and what is acceptable and what is not acceptable.

Thank you for making mistakes. Being the little sister, I have watched both of you make mistakes and from that, I learned without having to experience certain situations on my own.

Thank you for being brutally honest with me. You’re the only ones who will tell me how it really is. While others might tell me what I want to hear, you tell me straight up, even if it hurts my feelings. From that, I’ve become a mentally stronger person.

Thank you for always being there for me, mentally and emotionally. During my first heartbreak or through depression, you both were the ones I can count on to give me advice and making me feel better since you’ve been through situations similar in the past.

Thank you for always having my back. I know we all fight from time to time, but that’s between us. When other people get involved, you always stand up for me and protect me.

Thank you for accepting me, as I will forever accept you. No one is perfect and I definitely am not. I’ve made my share of mistakes and poor decisions and still at the end of the day you have been there with open arms.


Most importantly, thank you for being my best friends. I honestly could not imagine a day without you guys in my life. We all have our ups and downs, but at the end of the day, I would do absolutely anything for either of you. You both are my partners in crime and I would not have it any other way. I love you both to the moon and back.

Love, your little sis

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:

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.

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.
