The Little Perks Of Dating Your Best Friend
Maddie Troia

Every girl dreams of hooking up with that one super hot guy they always see on campus, and thinks what an accomplishment it would be once they succeeded. When you start college, you don't think about dating anyone or having that one person you always go to for every little thing. Being in college is a great time to be single and go out and have a great time, without a doubt.

However, dating your best friend makes this crazy four year roller coaster ride more exciting than you ever could've imagined. Not only are you on a journey exploring the world for the first time in a completely different aspect, but you get to share it with the person you love the most. These are a few little perks of dating your best friend, rather than being the single party girl.

1. Whenever you're having a bad day, you know they'll pretend to listen to you while you vent about whatever stupid drama happened throughout the day.

2. They automatically know to grab you a slice of CBR with extra Ranch from the pizza shop at 2 a.m. post-bars every weekend.

3. You grow up together and start leaving the teenage years behind while you dabble into adulthood.

4. You can order in food and binge-watch Netflix on a lazy Sunday when you're too hungover from Saturday night.

5. They don't get mad at you for stealing all of their personal belongings (mainly just clothes and food), regardless of how badly they want to freak out.

6. You can have makeup smeared down your face and have food in your teeth, and they still somehow find you attractive enough to date you judgement-free.

7. You have an automatic drinking partner whenever you go out.

8. They memorize all of your favorite things and surprise you with them.

9. Every day with them feels like the best day in the world, regardless of what you do together.

10. There isn't such a thing as being "too comfortable" around one another.


11. Sushi dates are a regular thing for you two.

12. They understand your weird sense of humor, and tag you in every Instagram post they know will make your day a thousand times better.

So even though the single life is a great life in college, instead of searching for the hottest guy on campus to hook up with a few times and then ditch him, find someone who will make these four years the most memorable. You won't regret it.

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.

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.
