To My Built-in Best Friends, I Love You

I would do anything for my brothers and am so lucky to call them mine!

To My Built-in Best Friends, I Love You
Hannah Meskin

Telling people that I have two brothers has generally produced similar reactions over the years such as “Oh my gosh, I feel so bad for you,” or “How do you do it?”, and “You are one brave girl”, and many others of this sort.

However, when people make comments like this to me, I look at them, smile, and think to myself that they could not be more wrong. My two brothers are my best friends in the world and I would do anything in the world for them.

Any girl who has grown up with two brothers knows that if the TV is on, sports are on. I have grown up watching golf tournaments on the weekends, Monday Night Football instead of Bachelor Mondays, every Memphis Grizzlies game, college football games on Saturdays, and constant reruns of ESPN sports center. Although I used to get annoyed that sports were the only thing ever on the TV, it has taught me to know more about sports than almost any girl and has also allowed me to spend quality time with my brothers as they yell at the TV when their favorite team has lost a big game.

My brothers also bring more entertainment to my life than any TV show could bring. They make some of the weirdest remarks and even though I hate to admit it, they are pretty funny. No matter if we are driving to dinner or just sitting on the couch together, I know that any minute I spend with them will not be dull.

Growing up with two brothers is doubtless entertaining and even though I do disagree with my brothers about the littlest things, I know that they would both be there for me if I ever needed anything. They are the best friends I could ask for and I am so glad they are mine.

Jake and Daniel, I miss you both so much and I wish more than anything that we could just be sitting on the couch together laughing about almost anything, but no matter how far we are from each other, I will always be there for you both! I love you so much and am so proud to call you my brothers!

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.
