To My High School Friends Who I Won't See Again, This One's For You
Brody Espiritu

To be completely honest, this is one hard article to write. Memories piled into one filing cabinet that I somehow have to unlock. Memories of four years condensed into one simple article that will hopefully reach the attention of my friends. All of the car rides, milkshakes, football games, pep-rally's, and stupidity pressed into a simple article. I won't embarrass you.. I promise. Let's hope I don't mess this up.

Tyler - I know you want to become a police officer but like.. are you sure? Make sure to not pull me over just to say hello. If I see you, I'll speed.

Lilli - In the words of Khalid, "Young, dumb, broke, high school kids." Thank you for the amazing relationship. Wouldn't trade it for the world. Also, I handed food to your aunt at Chick-Fil-A. She was nice.

Nick - "Brody.. why does your spine curve?" Thanks for pointing it out. I really enjoyed learning how to walk again. :)

Jukaylyn - Beyonce who? Never heard of her.

Hayden - Thank you for pushing me to be the Christian I am today. Without you, I wouldn't know anything about how much you love socialism.

Jack - Never go to jail.

Blake - You will be an amazing teacher.

Natalie - Remember when I liked you? That was awkward.

Andrew - You're dating my ex.

Carter - I am begging you to run for President. PLEASE Carter. That way I can be in the White House :)

Milana - I'll always remember when you have a gallon of tea to spill to me. Save some for the next person though.

Emily - "Ya'll I have a problem.. I can't see with my eyes closed."

Chip - Chip please... Do me a favor and never get grounded again...

Lily - You are NOT allowed to graduate this year. Nope.

Greg - Hey Greg


If you are not listed, know that I probably forgot you. BUT blame the ADHD. But on a more serious note, I will never forget the crazy car rides, the Friday night football games, singing at drama practice, the relationship that changed who I am, and the many laughs that were shared along the way. I hope that as we go our separate ways, you enjoy people, laugh until you wheeze, count adventures as lifetime goals, take the pictures that you always wanted, drink the soda (not alcohol) that you wish, meet the people that change your life, and marry the person that will be your forever. Thank you for believing in me as I believe in you. I love you all.


With Love,

Brody

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.

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.
