7 Thank-Yous For My 'Fun Friend'
Haley Holden

Every group has friends who are labeled according to their strongest personality traits. You have the "mom" friend, the "hot mess" friend, the who's always hungry, the friend who is always stealing clothes, the "grandpa" friend, and of course, the "fun friend." These are five thank yous that you should be giving to every single one of your "fun friends."

1. For getting me out of the house

Without you, I'd be sitting at home watching Netflix seven days a week instead of six days a week.

2. For getting me into new things

Let's be honest, that kickboxing class? That Thai place? Wouldn't have tried them without you.

3. For inviting me out

Even if I say no every third time, each time my screen lights up and it's an invite from you I get excited at the possibilities of what a night out might entail.

4. For forcing me to cut loose

Yeah, studying together is all good and fun, but taking a dance break together is just so much more appealing sometimes.

5. For all of the memories

For every night that could have been spent in you had me out doing crazy things that still make my sides hurt from laughing so hard about them.

6. For all the photo ops

The memories beat them, of course, but it's nice to have pictures of me actually doing things and most of them come from you forcing me to to do things.

7. For not just being the fun friend

As much as you are the friend who gets wild, you're also the friend that I can sometimes convince to sit and chill. They might not be the best stories, but they're some of the best moments.

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.

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.
