6 Things You Do That Your Boyfriend Actually Loves

He may not tell you, but the little things really do add up.

I recently talked with my boyfriend about the things that I do for him that he really appreciates or makes him happy. You may not think your boyfriend notices, ladies, but he does. He adores you and the little things that you do really add up. Here are just a few things that guys are actually glad you do.

1. Ask him how his day was/is

This is a really simple and sweet question to ask. It shows him you care and it’ll start conversation between you.

2. Asking/making sure he is okay 

Guys can’t always hold up the “tough guy” persona. Sometimes they need to be checked on and made sure they’re doing okay. This is another simple way to show you care.

3. Complimenting him 

Believe it or not, they like to receive compliments, too. If he is looking like a snack, tell him.

4. Playing with his hair

Now, not all boys are going to like this. Personally, my boyfriend does and I don’t mind doing so. This can be really calming for them and help them to relax.

5. Your hugs 

He LOVES your hugs. Especially when you don’t see each other for a while, the reunion is always a lot sweeter (distance makes the heart grow fonder, right?).

6. When you talk to him about things 

They like knowing you can come to them if you need to talk. Communication is super important in a relationship. Even if it isn’t about your relationship he does want to know when something is bothering you.

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.
