What Happen To "BFF"?

BFF.

Best. Friends. FOREVER?

A term that is used so lightly.

We all said it as kids. And some still say it today.

I know that in life friends come and go. It's just a part of life.

Some are only meant to be in your life for a season.

Some come and they stay for what may seem like forever.

I am truly blessed with some of the best of friends. God really blessed me.

Some came and went. Others are still around.

I've gained a lot of friends over the years. Great friends.

But.. I've also lost a few as well. I've been there. I lost my absolute best friend over something that could've been avoided. I had that silly little argument that ended a great friendship. I suffered through the pain of not having that person there that you used to always count on for advice. I've been there. So you are not alone!

It's tough having a friend that you talked to every single day for years become a complete "stranger" to you. They know every little thing about you. They were your "go to" when something was wrong. You could always count on them to be there and to listen to your problems. They gave you great advice. And the list could go on for days. But for whatever reason you are no longer friends.. it hurts. I know.

Sometimes you can do everything in your power to try to mend the relationship but nothing seems to work.

You can only do so much.

Eventually, you have to step back and wait for them to come around. And if they don't, it is completely okay! Trust me.

Whatever your situation may be. Life goes on.

Learn your lesson from whatever it is that happen and keep it all in mind.

But I will say this. Forgiveness is key!!

If you are the one that was wronged and you're the one hurting (I've been there as well) I know it can be super hard to forgive someone. Especially when they aren't even sorry. Find some way to forgive them because holding onto to that unforgiveness isn't getting either of you anywhere.

And if you are the one that has wronged someone else.. Ask them for forgiveness. Apologize.

Whichever side you're coming from, do your part! Once you do your part, the ball is in the other person's court. You can only sit back, wait and pray that God will help them find forgiveness in their heart (& you if you were wronged) and that He will help mend the friendship.

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.
