For unknowingly helping me through the loss of you.

To My Ex Best Friends, Thank You.
Brooke Albright

I know you might think this is sarcastic, but I'm serious thank you.

Thank you for the memories I get to tell my new friends. For the endless laughs, and the nights I was too drunk to really recollect what actually happened.

For something to talk about, for something to think about- thank you.

Thank you for the pictures, because a picture says one thousand words. For the memories engraved in them, for the smiles. For the happiness that went along with them, and for something to look back to- to remember all the monumental things that happened. For the hugs, the kisses, the laughter.

For something to remember, a memory at the palm of my hand- thank you.

Thank you for hidden meaning in every song. For that warm cozy feeling that fills my heart everytime a verse plays over the speaker. For the dance moves that went with it, and the chorus I hear in my head.

For the meanings, that will never slip my mind and the words that are decoded in my brain forever.

Thank you for the growth. Not just during our friendship but after, for teaching me that it's not always my fault, that sometimes it takes forgiving too.

For someone to grow with, and for being the cheerleaders who helped me grow along the way.

Thank you for the shoulders to cry on. For helping me through my first heartbreak, for letting me know its ok. For never letting me settle for less, for always pushing me beyond my boundaries.

For the tissues, the advice that I will utter out of my mouth to my new friends.

Thank you for the love that you placed in my heart. For showing me that sometimes girlfriends are your real soulmates. For the love, you always covered me with, for showing me how a real friend loves.

For the hugs for no reason, for telling me you love me when getting out of the car. (the drunk ones were always my favorite).

Thank you for the new beginnings you granted me. For letting me walk when I asked to walk, for never pushing me away. For always wanting the best, and checking up on me when I was away.

For the best wishes, and the good lucks. Unknowingly you helped me through the loss of 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.
