To The Girls Who Made My Junior Year

I can't wait to call you two my roommates.

To The Girls Who Made My Junior Year
Morgan Barrentine

I never expected you two to meet, much less be as close as you are now, and I never expected to make friends who I call my sisters. Yet, here we are. I moved to this town to finish my degree. I wasn't planning on making a lot of friends, especially close ones. My little path was mine. It led me to and from school with nowhere else in between.

I didn't stray from it; I played it safe.

One of you, I met in high school. We didn't talk much, besides the small talks in the band hall before school started. We ran in different circles. I was just a junior in high school, and you were a freshman. It never crossed our minds that we would be more than, "Oh yeah. She's in the band with me."

The other one of you, I met via a mutual friend. It was by chance that we became as close as we have because of the negative lies being spewed about you. I can't believe I ever listened to those because that negative light has no reason to be shone on you. You are one of the Godliest people I know.

I didn't expect you two to get close or ever meet. It wasn't until we created the group chat that the friendship took off. I can't imagine my life without you two and the endless guidance and support you've provided. No longer do I stay on my little path, although I never stopped going where I went. My path is no longer little - it can't be. My path has tripled its size because you two are by my side.

When one falls, the other two help her up. We've all fallen this past semester, but that's okay. We have each other. Without y'alls support and love, I don't think I would be looking back at my junior year with such warmth in my heart. You two made my first year at University worth it, and I cannot wait until August when I can call you both my roommates.

I know that wherever the future takes us, no matter how far - we will always be just a text away. Until then, I guess I'm stuck with you two. I guess that's fine. Not everyone can say that they are best friends with a future nurse and an orthopedic surgeon, but I can.

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.
