To My Long Distance Best Friend

Thank you for still being my best friend from hundreds of miles away.

To My Long Distance Best Friend
Emily Agadzhanova

To my long distance best friend,

It broke my heart when we reached senior year and we were applying to completely different schools on different coasts. You were the friend that I could drive to your house at ten at night to go get ice cream or call at eleven at night crying because I was stressed. You were the friend that wouldn't judge me when I belted Taylor Swift in the car or when I failed that super easy test. That moment when I realized that we would be over 900 miles away from each other crushed me. However, you stayed my best friend and I want to thank you for everything that you do.

Thank you for answering my Facetime calls at 1 in the morning. I know you have hundreds of things to do at 1 in the morning... like sleep, but thank you for always answering my calls. You are a rock star for answering me when I couldn't figure out how to do my own laundry or what outfit I should wear. As much as it annoyed you to hear my ranting or help me with my homework, thanks for answering. Thanks for being blunt. Everyone is afraid to be completely honest, but somebody has to be that person. Being my best friend, I thank you for telling me that the shirt I was obsessed with wasn't my color or that I should stay in for a weekend.

Without that completely honest person in your life, how would you survive? I know that I'm not always right, and it's good for someone to tell you when you are wrong so you don't keep making the same old mistakes. I'm glad that even though we are in two separate time zones we can still watch the same shows and spend countless hours gossiping about what happened and what t.v. character we are most like. Thank you for not posting all those embarrassing selfies I took on your phone and for not judging me for wearing extremely oversized clothing.

Lastly, thank you for all the unconditional love and support that you give me. I know that I make decisions that you aren't hundred percent okay with, but thank you for all the support that you give me and for always being there if the plan doesn't work. Knowing I have your support is all that I need to keep going when the decision is a tough one.

We shared everything from prom court, late night singing moments in the car, cramming for anatomy tests to countless baseball games. I know that you and I both have made amazing new friends, but I know that we will always be best friends. You are the Brooke to my Payton, the Blair to my Serena and the Cristina to my Meredith. It's tough going from seeing you every day to only once a semester, but that's what Skype and Facetime are for. I know that in our future endeavors life will get tough, but no matter how many miles apart we are, I know that I can forever call you my best friend.

Sincerely,

Your Forever Best Friend

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.

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.
