I met one of my best friends out of the blue, not expecting it at all.

I had heard that we would get along great since we had very similar interests, but I feel like a lot of the time people with similar interests often don't get along as well. I was so wrong. We met and immediately hit it off, finding it hilarious that we were literally the same person. Same personalities, same interests, same views on everything; it was crazy!

The first day we hung out together we instantly bonded over certain things like horses and makeup, fashion and whatnot. From then on we talked everyday, all the time. We had inside jokes, probably because we have the same sense of humor. We've become inseparable, constantly with each other and the times we aren't physically together, we're either texting or Snapchatting.

I've gone through so many friends that burn out, or they turn out to be one of those people that secretly wants the worst for you. It sucks. I'm pretty sure everyone in life would love it if they had one genuine person who had their back no matter what, someone who you can laugh with and go on adventures with. Because in the end, that's what a best friend is for! Someone who your family treats like another member of the family. At least, that's what I would look for!

It makes me realize that I'm incredibly lucky to have a best friend like her in my life because nowadays it's so rare, which is sad. People aren't as genuine. They either don't generally care about you or they pretend to care and eventually end up stabbing you in the back. So, I think that it's important to cherish those friendships that come around, simply because they're so scarce.

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.

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.
