To The Best Friend Who Doesn't Know Her Worth

Dear Best friend, I truly wish you could see yourself the way that I do. I know that it's easy to doubt yourself when you have been through so much in your life, but you are not your mistakes. You are not the nights you cried yourself to sleep, you are not the boy who used you, you are not the bad grade you got on a test,you are not your flaws, you are not your most painful heartbreak, no.

You are the smile you bring to everyone's face, you are the laugh I would recognize from miles away, you are the hug that makes me whole again every time I see you, you are the you that this makes this world a beautiful place. You are a heart of gold, you are the girl who works her butt off to make sure she has everything she needs, you are the best friend I never want to know life without.

You are a future amazing mother, wife, and god mom to my children. You are a future successful healthcare professional. You are my future maid of honor. You are you, and there is nothing more perfect about you than the fact that you're you.

This world has put you through a lot, and you always remain the same with a pure heart. Many nights you unknowingly made me smile when I was falling apart inside. Many days seeing you made me feel whole again. Many days I got out of bed only because you made me feel strong enough to do so. Many times I cried after you texting me telling me you didn't feel good enough, because I knew if you could see yourself the way I do, you wouldn't feel the same way. Many times I thanked God for you, because sometimes I can't help but wonder if I'd truly still be here if I didn't have you to continue living for.

So, when it all gets to be too much sometimes, remember who you truly are, and not just who you think you are. There is only 1 you in this world, and that you deserves to be happy, loved, and at peace. And when you begin to doubt yourself... know in the back of your mind that you have truly saved me many times, even when you didn't know it. I hope that one day you see yourself the way I do, because you'll truly be amazed. I love 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.
