A Letter To My Best Friend
Marisa Mertins

Dear Quesadilla,

Thank you for being in my life. I'm so thankful for you and all of the things we have done together. The memories we've created are ones I'll tell my children when I'm older. They are memories I know I'll never forget, I wouldn't want to anyways.

When I met you back in 2013 we connected instantly and I guess you could say that the rest is history. We're those best friends that have such ridiculous inside jokes people think we've lost our minds when they hear us talking. You're that one person that always gets me even when my text messages resemble a language that no one but you can understand. I can send you the same picture 15 times and you'll get exactly what I am trying to say. I swear we can read each other's minds.

You're not someone who I can see every day and while it sucks, it makes me cherish the time we spend together that much more. If anything, living in different states has made our bond stronger. We don't need to constantly hang out with each other to keep our friendship going though some may argue we do that anyways with how we spend hours on oovoo till the early hours of the morning. I look forward to when we go on road trips to see bands we love. I look forward to when we just hang out at your house catching up and being our weird selves. I look forward to whenever I get to see you.

I know you're always there for me. You've seen me at my worst when I've broken down into tears. You've seen me at my best when I'm laughing so hard my stomach hurts and I'm doing that weird breathy laugh. I know all I have to do is send you a text and you'll be ready to face time me within minutes even if it's about the weirdest thing. You motivate me to be the best version of myself and to follow my all of my dreams. I hope I do the same to you.

I can't put how much you mean to me into words. I don't think I ever will be able to. Just know that you mean a lot, seriously like a lot, to me.

You're not allowed to leave my life. You're stuck with me forever, I hope you're OK with that (even if you aren't tough luck).

Love,
Marinara

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.

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.
