To Those I’m Leaving Behind In Less Than Two Weeks

Over the past two weeks, it really hit me that I'm moving 762 miles away from my comfortable suburban life that I've known forever to becoming an ADULT in a whole nother state.

To Those I’m Leaving Behind In Less Than Two Weeks

I have a lot of things I want to say to a lot of people.

1. To my bed and my momma.

I'm honestly sorry I never made my bed, being a lazy girl the pros of getting into a nicely made bed at night just never outweighed the cons of exerting energy in the morning. But anyway, I'll never stop striving to make my mom proud. I'm never going to be able to repay my mom for the love and sacrifice she's given to me and my family. I don't think I'll ever stop missing her this year.

2. To my forever friends.

It recently hit me how undeserving I am of the love and opinions most of you have for me. I'm so freaking blessed to have people who think of me in ways I honestly can't. I love you sooo much and cherish the memories made and to come.

3. To the drama queen from sophomore year.

I was just saying your sandwich looked good. Chill:)

4. To my three doggos.

I'm ready to pack you guys in my carry-on because I can't imagine my life any different from the past 10 years filled with constant cuddles and constant barking, catfights, and your obsession over my trash can. So if any of you forget me before Thanksgiving like you did to Christian when he left, I'm going to be pissed.

5. To kimchi.

Its not goodbye, its see you later.

6. To Hakuya Sushi.

https://vsco.co/jasmineyi/media/5619bd4821eed93330d79d37

I can proudly say I've grown into the young woman I am today by eating here 4 days a week on some occasions. To the place I've gone when I'm hangry, happy, with girlfriends or family, or coming home from a really bad date, thank you for existing. I hold Chef Chuck and his family near and dear to my heart and stomach.

7. To my golf coach/life coach(not going to lie)

You've seen some of my highest of highs and lowest of lows and words nor actions can express the impact you've had on my journey of finding my identity. But the most important thing I want to say is sorry for being hungry, and most days on the edge of hangry.

8. To Liquid Fusion.

I actually don't know where I would spend my weekend nights with my friends if you didn't exist, so thank you. And I'm really sorry for spilling bubble tea and dropping straws all the time, don't miss me too much.

9. To the boy who taught me what a real emotional roller coaster was.

You were my token guy, but things just didn’t work. You gave me some of the best experiences I could ask for this year and you gave me the biggest heartaches. I hope you do great things, but I’m just to leave you behind with my high school memories if that’s cool.

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.

Is there really such a difference in Challah bread or Easter Bread?

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.
