Yeah we don't always see eye to eye, but I love you and you have taught me so many lessons that I will never forget.

Dear Dad, Thank You For Everything You've Done For Me

From telling me the story of my birth on my birthday every year, to seeing me graduate this past week, you have always been there for me and supported the decisions I have made. Though I have made some wrong decisions, and you have called me out on those decisions. Those little things you have done for me have molded me into the woman I am today, and I cannot thank you enough for that.

Whether you are making me laugh or cry, you were always there. Through the good and the bad, you always had my back. You understand me in ways I don't give you enough credit for. All you want is what is best for me and though we have had our disagreements about what exactly is best for me, we always are able to figure out a compromise or listen to what the other is trying to say.

No, I don't help with yard work or any of your projects, and no I will not shave my head, but I can promise you this, yes, I will always talk to you about politics or what is going on in the world, yes I will talk and help out whenever I can with understanding you and the world around me. The conversations we have are second to none, some are silly and others more serious, they will always hold a special place in my heart.

You never fail to make me smile, and I hope I do the same for you. You have helped me so much and I thank you for everything you have done for me. Happy Father's day dad, I love you to the moon and back, and no matter how much you bother me, that will never change.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.
