To The Man I Love, Thank You For Absolutely Everything
Melissa Garcia

To the man, I fell for,

I never saw you coming to never expected to meet someone a month after I started college at the University of Maine. I didn't want to meet someone, fate had different plans. We met at a party and I just wanted to act uninterested but truly I think that I might've been a little intrigued by you and how brave you are. You flirting with me as nobody else had before kind of caught me off guard and I really think I liked it, I mean we're together you're later so I would say that I liked it You mean the world to me and so does your family and I can't imagine losing any of it because it's my world now.

You brought me into a loving space where I could feel safe which is something I've long to feel ever since I was a teenager, something I have never really felt. Granted my high school relationship was tumultuous and I was really close with his family but it's nothing like what I have now. Now I have everything I could ask for, have a man who would wake up in the middle of the night to hold me while I'm crying, a man who tells me he loves me every chance you get, that's what this is all about.

2019 is going to be are you coming here to grow in our relationship and for me growing my relationship with God, and make new friendships turnover newly because the second half of 2018 was cruel to me. I really wish that I made different decisions but everything leads you where you need to feel like I need to be in a different place I never wanted to end.

There so many days I want to run home, home to a place that no longer exists, I place and a feeling I'm constantly homesick for. A lot of times you fill that void and I can't thank you enough for that. Even though I'm a morning person and your night owl life is so good we still fell in love. I don't know how you love a girl like me every day and how you help me fight my battles but thank you because my scars are finally beginning to heal, the wounds are starting to close and I never thought they would. Men have destroyed me in the past and that is what I expected from you, for you to break my heart but you haven't, in turn, my heart has grown twice its size seeing how kind you are to everyone, even complete strangers and I want to thank you for being everything I never knew I would have.

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.
