To My College Graduate
Mike Bokar

My college graduate, Congratulations! There are not many words that would be able to express how proud I am of you. I was able to first hand see your college experience. What a privilege that was to witness. I was able to see the passion you have for your self, and for the degree you were pursuing. I stood by you for long nights of studying. Watched you spend hours with your face glued to a computer, to find that last little bit of research. Made you cookies when school stressed you out. Listened to the conversations of you wanted to be down, and wished it was all over. Say how your face would light up, when your final grades were posted, and you received mostly A's. Spoke with your professors about how great you are, as a person and a student. Finally, I was also there when you walked crossed the stage, and received your diploma. Ive seen everything you have done, and yet you still amaze me. Everything you worked so hard to achieve has finally paid off. Your dedication to your education was outstanding. Your knowledge has progressed much farther than anyone could have imaged, even if you jokingly say you have learned nothing.

Watching you walk through college and then walk crossed the stage was truly a blessing to witness, and something that was so well deserved. With no of all the hard work behind you, it is time to celebrate your achievement, lasting far beyond the graduation ceremony and part. It is time to celebrate you. Being with friends and family, including them into the celebration. made everything feel even more special. Enjoy this moment of celebration, before stepping out into the real world. Have a few more drink in your honor, before the night ends. Spend a little bit more time as a collage student, before becoming a real adult. You deserve so much and should be so proud of your self.

Now that this chapter in your life has closed, I want to remember a few thing. First know that I will always be their, watching you succeed and achieve anything you set your mind to. Know that I will always was be proud of you, and I will always love you. Know that and worker force, company, school, employer will be so lucky to have someone like you joining their team.You are destined to do so many amazing things within your life. Never settle, never stop pursuing your dreams and utilize the potential within you. And once again, I am so proud of you and congratulations Babe.

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.
