Why Work Friends are the Best Friends

Only they can understand the pain of 8 hours in that building.

Why Work Friends are the Best Friends

Coworkers can be the best people or the worst people. When you're stuck in a closed space with them for 8+ hours 5 out of 7 days a week, you get to know them better than you probably want to. I am blessed to work with the people that I do and I am blessed to know as much about these people as I do.

I can honestly say that I am closer to these girls than I ever thought that I could possibly be to someone that I work with. The amazing thing about them is that they are always by my side no matter what. Whatever I need, whenever I need it, they're there for me. I can also go to them at any time of the day because I can guarantee that someone in the group in on their phone and can give me advice on whatever I need. Whether it be that I need someone to take my shift because something came up, or if I need advice on what necklace looks better with my outfit that day.

Even though at the moment we're all either away at college, busy with college or busy with jobs, we are all still there for each other and are just as close if not closer than we were this summer. That is the true measure of how good a friend is. The fact that this group of girls can be totally open and honest and can still be just as close when separated by distance as when we were all here together shows just how incredible these people are and how much we all truly love each other.

Work friends are amazing because they are the only ones that truly understand what's going on at work and the reasons that you're stressed. You can go to them and start venting about "that one customer" or "I hate that job!" and they know exactly where you're coming from. I love my friends that aren't from work but they just don't quite get the work aspect of my life. Even though the majority of my work friends are away at college right now, I know they're only a text away if I have to vent to them about the schedule or how crazy college is right now (I love cramming everything into the last few weeks of the semester).

These girls are very special to me and they know that already, but I'm just reiterating that fact, plus they all wanted me to write something about them (Happy Tori?) I love them with all of my heart and I especially love the special bond that we have and spending time with these amazing girls. I'll see you all soon over break, love you lots!

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.
