Why I Admire My Best Friend.

There Is Always One Person In Your Life Who Says And Does All The Right Things, That's My Best Friend.

There is always that friend that deep down, you know always has the right answer. The friend that can steer you in the right direction. The friend that can build up the courage to move past things that you would otherwise stew over for days. The friend that makes you wish you had their temper.

(What a handsome headshot, am I right ladies?)

I have a friend like that. A best friend, actually. I can always count on him to give me valuable advice. I don't mean the generic advice that could be applied to anything. I mean the type of advice that you know was well-thought out and completely sincere to not only your feelings, but the situation.

My best friend and I can get into a fight, one that is usually caused by me (nothing special there), and instantly be ready to forgive and forget. It's not the kind of forgive and forget where the other person just pushes it out of their head and one day explodes from all the things they had originally disregarded. No. It's the kind of thing that after we've talked the problem through thoroughly, apologies have been made from both parties (even if it was only one person who caused the problem), and your best friend says, "I accept your apology and I am ready to move past this." This is a quality that's hard to find.

I can text or call my best friend, regardless of what time it is, and ask for advice. My best friend knows me so well that he knows that although I am asking for advice, I know what I should do and that I just wanted a second opinion.

If I'm sad, or my day was awful, I can always count on a smile from him. There is always a joke, a funny face, or simply talking about anything, that I can count on my best friend for. He's my shoulder to cry on, both when I am sad, or when he makes me laugh so hard that I start crying.

I admire my best friend for being so incredibly strong. No matter what situation, there is always a light at the end of the tunnel.

Sometimes, I don't think I deserve this light in my life, the person who knows all the right things, but I sure am thankful to have him.

I love my best friend through and through. I may be crazy, and I may not always make the greatest decisions, yet my best friend has never left my side. There has never been an instance of my best friend giving up on me, only him trying to make me happy, or patch up what I have broken in my life.

I believe that I am the luckiest girl on this planet to have a person like this in my life. That is something I will never let go...

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

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:

Challah vs. Easter Bread: A Delicious Dilemma

Is there really such a difference in Challah bread or Easter Bread?

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.
