I know you are going through so much right now. It pains me that I can’t be there to sit by your side and comfort you. I hate being so far away from you and I wish flights were cheaper because I would fly to you tonight if I could.

You have been through a lot, but you have overcome it all. Nothing can hold you down and you need to remember how strong you are. I know it may seem difficult to be and feel strong at this moment, but you are. Remember the night when we sat in my car crying to each other after what you told me? I reminded you of your strength and how proud I am of you and how proud you should be of yourself. I will always think that. There will never be a time where you should think you’re weak because you aren’t. There have been so many walls blocking your way and so much pulling you down but you have broken through the walls and raised above it all.

You continuously say how I am an inspiration to you but most of the strength I have is from you. You have supported me through everything I have went through, all of my difficult times and all of my best. You have continued to be my back bone since we rekindled our long lost friendship a couple years ago.

Life gets hard and I know that at some points you just want to give up. I know you just want to get in bed and never get out. I will not allow you to do that. You have so much to offer and so many great things to accomplish. You mean way more to me then a friend does, you are family. You will forever be the sister I have never had but always wanted. We may get in little fights at times and we can definitely annoy each other but there is no one else I would turn to when life gets hard and no one I would rather lean on me when you need a shoulder or any support.

You will always be one of my biggest inspirations and I will forever be your biggest cheerleader. I am so proud of everything you have accomplished and everything you are going to conquer.

I know you think the world is against you, to be honest after what you’ve been through, I would think so too. However, you have so many people that will endlessly care for and about you. I honestly can’t even picture my life without you being here, I don’t want to. You have been such a large part of my life and of who I am.

Always remember, God gives his hardest battles to his strongest soldiers. This is all a part of His plan for you. No, it may not make sense. Yes, it might be causing you so much pain right now but you are strengthening parts of yourself that may not be visible at the moment, but soon you’ll see.

What I want you to never go a day without remembering is this; you are strong, you matter, you are important, you are not alone, and you can get through this. I love you and I will always answer your call or text. You can count on me, I will always be here for you.

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.
