We Really Are Graduating Soon

We really are graduating soon and that's so insane to think about. Things have changed so much since freshmen year, everything has, everyone has. And we're all almost adults now! We actually made it!

I actually (and this may sound pathetic) have this group really really good friends! As someone like me who tends to be an introvert, having my small circle of people I'm comfortable around and can be myself with is everything I ever could've dreamed of. Now I actually have that group, I have these friends who I spend time with and who I joke around with and get annoyed at and it's amazing!

Since graduation is fast approaching, I've come to the realization that I'm going to be separated from the majority of my good friends and it makes me a bit sad. I don't know how things will change once we all go our separate ways for college, but I hope that we all stay in touch and continue to be friends. It's all a scary mystery at this point, but it helps to not spend all your time worrying and to just live in the moment.

At the time that I'm writing this, my senior prom, my last prom ever, is tomorrow and I'm extremely excited and nervous and anxious, but mostly excited :D

So for now I'll push away the sad thoughts telling me that this will all be over soon and embrace the laughs, the fun and the good times while I still can. That's all we can do.

College is going to be this whole new world that I honestly don't feel too ready for, but it's coming and I pray that I get to keep all my amazing friends and we can support each other through this next stage of our lives.

So don't despair when you worry about the future, don't waste the time you have left in high school worrying and just enjoy what you have now. Time will go on no matter what you do so being worried and afraid is pointless.

Enjoy the rest of high school my fellow seniors, only a little over a month to go c:

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.

Whether you met your new love interest online, through mutual friends, or another way entirely, you'll definitely want to know what you're getting into. I mean, really, what's the point in entering a relationship with someone if you don't know whether or not you're compatible on a very basic level?

Consider these 21 questions to ask in the talking stage when getting to know that new guy or girl you just started talking to:

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.
