To The Guy Who Wasn't Meant For Me, I'm Still Rooting For You

You always managed to make me smile on days when I didn't think I could.

Thank you for coming into my life at a time where I was completely alone and had no one to share my thoughts or feelings with.

Relationships are about opening up to one another about things that you wouldn't normally share with anyone else but your partner. You always did a pretty good job of being open with me about what you were feeling, but there were some things that you weren't open about — and that's what still hurts.

You had shown me that we were both in places where we were still growing and looking to find ourselves. We thought that maybe we could do that through each other, but we soon learned that we needed to grow separately.

You taught me how to embrace who I am and to share that part of myself with the world, something that I wasn't cable of doing before.

You allowed me to open up and discover that I could love someone other than myself, and for that, I will forever be grateful.

You showed me how to live life on the edge and to never be afraid of taking risks, even if I fail.

You were always there to listen to my problems and give me outrageous, yet hilarious, solutions to them.

You always managed to make me smile on days when I didn't think I could.

When we broke up, I thought the world was going to end, and that I couldn't live without you. I've learned that time heals all wounds and that we weren't meant to be at that time.

I will always have a spot in my heart for you, regardless, because you were an important part of my teenage life, and there are memories of you that I can never forget.

You were my biggest headache somedays but also my biggest supporter. You were always there for me when I needed you the most.

I know you're doing amazing things now, and I am so proud of all that you accomplished.

Even though we don't talk much anymore, just know that I'm always rooting for 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.

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.

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.
