To My Rock, You Rock

My rock is the greatest aspect of my life and I am forever grateful for my rock.

To My Rock, You Rock
Melissa Sherwood

To my Rock,

I do not know where I would be without my rock. My rock has been the one person who has never left my side. People have came into our lives or left our lives. Since day one of my existence, my rock and I have been a team. My rock is the one person in this world that I know will never betray me. I can always trust my rock.

My rock is always able to guide me through life. When I come to stop and do not know where to go, I can always look at my rock. My rock gives me guidance. Whether I take it or not is up to me, but I have learned through the years that my rock is always right.

My rock is calm. My rock is wise. My rock is strong. My rock is always sitting there next to me for when I need a rest. I can just sit and rely on my rock to bring calmness to me when the world gets too hard.

For a long time, I did not appreciate my rock. I'd fight back against my rock and turn my back against my rock. The thing about rocks is that too much abrasion on them can cause them to break down and crumble.

I learned that I have to be kind and respectful to my rock or else there will not be a rock left.

My rock is strong. One of the strongest kinds of rocks. Things and people have hurt my rock, but somehow my rock finds a way to forgive and be kind to them. I aspire to be like my rock.

My rock is selfless. My rock puts so many things in life before it's wants and needs. My rock always makes sure I am taken care of before itself.

My rock is generous. My rock always shares and helps others out of the goodness in its heart. My rock is tender when it comes to bad situations. My rock always finds it in her heart to volunteer for those who need it.

My rock rocks. I love my rock. I need my rock.

My mom is my rock.

I love you mom.

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.
