To The Man I Want To Marry

We're young but in love, and I can't wait to be old and still in love.

To The Man I Want To Marry
Jordan and I

Sometimes, when you're with someone for so long, you get tired of them. Maybe because we're young, it's not expected that we'd want to commit. Even though I'll never be over you. From junior year of high school to junior year of college, you've done everything you can to make me happy, and make sure I had everything I ever wanted, even if I wasn't the best girlfriend. This is for you, for everything you do, and why I want to be your wife.

I've never committed to something as long as I've been with you. As a teenager, I would go day to day changing everything from my hair, my style, and even who I had a crush on, but you're different. Through choosing different colleges, changing career paths, you've stuck with me, and you continue to be with me even after all this time. I am amazed by you and your ability to be flexible with me, to love me regardless of the many times I've messed up.

You want the best for me. Even if it means going to a college two hours away, you want me to have everything I need to be successful. You've supported me through wanting to be a teacher, and now wanting to go to seminary. You always want to get the best thing for me, and to be the best guy you can, and I don't think I've ever really had that in my life. I wish I could show you how much I want the best for you. I will always stay by your side, I will always want you to reach for your dreams, just like you want me to reach for mine.

Being with you is my favorite thing. Whether you're playing games on my computer, or helping me unpack my room, just being with you is enough for me. I never want that to stop. I can't wait for the day where you don't ever have to go home, and we can play app games on my phone like the kids we are all day and all night. You're effortlessly funny and the looks you give me just make me feel special because I know you really want to make me happy. I love the fact that I can be a kid with you, without a care in the world. You really are my best friend.

I love seeing your passions. Whether it's that game on my computer, or the Rubik's Cube, or coffee set ups, I love seeing you just love something. You try to explain things to me, and honestly, half the time I don't understand, but I just listen to you talk about it. You are so passionate about your hobbies, and I just want to be able to see that for the rest of my life. Maybe it's computer programming that I'll never understand, or maybe it's coffee that I understand far too well. Either way, I want to continue to be the person you can be passionate with.

I can't imagine life without you in my life, and hopefully, I'll never have to. Whether we get married in two years, or five years, or whenever, I want to be in your life. I want to be your best friend forever. I want to stand in front of our friends and family and show them how much you mean to me. For now, being your girlfriend is the best thing that has ever happened to me, and I can't tell you enough how much 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.
