To The Guy I Didn't Expect To Love

They’re out in the open again in hopes to be taken care of. I didn’t expect you.

To The Guy I Didn't Expect To Love

I love you. Three little words that hold some one’s heart. I do not give these words out lightly. They are carefully given out to the ones who are dear to me…you are one of those people. We’ve dated other people, carry baggage from the past, and have emotional scars that may bound us at first. You were unexpected and my heart didn’t think it could handle another break or even the chance of one. I took that chance with you because my heart knew something my mind couldn’t fathom at the time. The emotions came running fast the moment I saw the real you.

The ‘you’ that people couldn’t see from the outside. The ‘you’ that gave me the courage to use those three little words and have faith that I wouldn’t be broken again. I want you to know that my love is true and loyal. I have seen the best and worst sides of you and still continue to fall more in love with you each day. I wish I could have seen this side of you sooner but I know that the exact moment we met, the exact moment we ran into each other after all these years was the moment I was meant to love you. All of the heartbreaks before you were preparing me for this…for you. I do not see our baggage as mistakes, I see them as stepping stones that lead me to that exact moment we locked eyes and realized this was something to pursue. Insecurities will come around and that’s okay. It’s a small sign that we’re falling in love, we’re becoming vulnerable because our hearts are back on our sleeves.

They’re out in the open again in hopes to be taken care of. I didn’t expect you. I didn’t expect to love you as passionately as I do. Years ago I would have laughed off the idea because I didn’t know the man you would become. The man that went through hell and back to be the man I need today. I believe in fate and destiny and that everything good, bad, and ugly in life happens for a greater purpose. You are what all of the heartbreaks prepared me for. You’re the one. Although those three little but powerful words may not always assure you, just know I do not take them lightly. My heart chose you. I love you. Three little words that hold my heart.

Sincerely,

Your Loving Girlfriend

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.
