To My Best Friends Before I Move Away

Dear BFF's, partners in crime, shoulders to cry on, etc.,

Thank you for being you, and thank you for guiding me through these last 4 whirlwind years. I experienced everything with you guys, and the memories that stick in the back of our minds are ours to keep forever. I don't think i'll ever have the courage to delete those hilarious videos we took at 4am, or the old group messages that hold the deepest secrets and best laughs. It's so normal for me to see you everyday, then be with you all weekend, not realizing that our time together is drawing to a close all too quickly. We always waited for the weekend, and then summer, when in reality all I want is for the time to slow to a stop; just so i can spend every last minute with you before our lives are completely changed. The comfort and familiarity of all of your hugs, or the filterless way we speak to each other, or the weird humor we all somehow understand will be replaced by new friends and new learning experiences, but they'll never leave my mind or my heart. I'll miss the rides to your houses, where it always felt like home. I'll miss our antics and that whatever we did, we did it together. We didn't really think about what would happen in the future, only that the fun we were having now would make the best memories. So, from the time we toss those graduation caps until the day I drive away to enter a new chapter in my life, I want you to know that I will always come back home to you. Whatever the future holds, whether we drift or survive the time apart, I will cherish every second spent together, because that time made me who I am today. So thank you, thank you for the happy times, and the sad times, and for the reassurance when I was at my lowest. I will never forget the times we had, because most of them were the best of my life.

Love, your best friend

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

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.

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. I mean, really, what's the point in entering a relationship with someone if you don't know whether or not you're compatible on a very basic level?

Consider these 21 questions to ask in the talking stage when getting to know that new guy or girl you just started talking to:

Challah vs. Easter Bread: A Delicious Dilemma

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.
