Dear Significant Other
Constance Register

Dear significant other,

Just kidding.

I love you. I hope you always remember that. Thank you for all of the activities you've done with me. Thank you for all the silliness. Thank you for all the crap you put up with. Thank you for dealing with me. Thank you for loving me even when I am hard to love. Thank you for treating me with the utmost respect. Thank you for protecting me. Thank you for worrying. Thank you for being there with me when I have needed you and thank you for being there when I have not.

Dear significant other,

Though we've had our ups and downs we've prevailed and I thank you for sticking around because I know that at times, more often than not, I am hard to love. Thank you for keeping my spirits up and keeping faith in me. Thank you for believing in me. Thank you for encouraging me.

Dear significant other,

Thank you for the laughs, the smiles, and the dancing. Thank you for the meals you provide and the tender loving care. Thank you for forcing medicine down my throat when I am too stubborn to take it myself because I would rather let my immune system fight it naturally. Thank you for that because it makes me feel better almost instantly and that is all you ever want for me, is to feel my best. Thank you for wanting the best for me and thank you for bringing out the best in me. Thank you for still wanting to be with me when you've seen me at my worst. Thank you for seeing me first thing in the morning and not running. Thank you for the kisses. Thank you for the hugs. Thank you for appreciating my love for makeup. Thank you for letting me do yours occasionally. Thank you for not getting mad that I published that on social media. Thank you for doing my eyebrows for me that one time. Thank you for getting pedicures with me.

Thank you for all the sushi you get me. Thank you for feeding that addiction. Thank you for taking me to prom senior year and thank you for all the trips to the antique district that started our relationship. Thank you for introducing yourself 5 years ago. Thank you for sitting by me in class when I asked you to, otherwise, this article wouldn't exist. Thank you for being you. Thank you for your silliness and crazy. Thank you for putting up with my intense love of cats and animals in general. Thank you for the intense love of "Brown Eyed Girl" you've instilled in me. Thank you for taking me to the emergency room at 4 a.m.

Most of all, thank you for loving me.

But I must ask,

Did you bring more cheese pizza?

Now that Halloween is over, it's time to focus on the Holiday Season. Don't get me wrong, I think Thanksgiving is great and can't wait for it, but nothing gives me greater joy than watching Freeform's 25 Days of Christmas, lighting peppermint scented candles, decking the halls, and baking gingerbread cookies. So while we approach the greatest time of the year, let's watch the 15 best Christmas movies of all time.

6 Signs You Are An English Major

There are various stereotypes about college students, most of which revolve around the concept of your major. Unfortunately, we often let stereotypes precede our own judgments, and we take what information is immediately available to us rather than forming our own opinions after considerable reflection. If I got a dollar for every time my friends have made a joke about my major I could pay my tuition. One stereotype on campus is the sensitive, overly critical and rigid English major. Here are six telltale signs you are one of them.

"The Office" is a mockumentary based on everyday office life featuring love triangles, silly pranks and everything in between. It can get pretty crazy for just an average day at the office.

When you were little, your parents probably told you television makes your brain rot so you wouldn't watch it for twelve straight hours. However, I feel we can learn some pretty valuable stuff from television shows. "The Office," while a comedy, has some pretty teachable moments thrown in there. You may not know how to react in a situation where a co-worker does something crazy (like put your office supplies in jello) but thanks to "The Office," now you'll have an idea how to behave ifsomething like that should happen.

Here are just a few of the things that religious Office watchers can expect to learn.

Being pre-med is quite a journey. It’s not easy juggling school work, extracurricular activities, volunteering, shadowing, research, and MCAT prep all at the same time. Ever heard of “pain is temporary, but GPA is forever?” Pre-meds don’t just embody that motto; we live and breathe it. Here are 10 symptoms you’re down with the pre-med student syndrome.

High School And College Sucked All Of The Fun Out Of Reading

Books were always about understanding for me, about learning the way someone else sees, about connection.

High School And College Sucked All Of The Fun Out Of Reading

I keep making this joke whenever the idea of books is brought up: "God, I wish I knew how to read." It runs parallel to another stupid phrase, as I watch my friends struggle through their calculus classes late at night in our floor lounge: "I hope this is the year that I learn to count." They're both truly idiotic expressions, but, when I consider the former, I sometimes wonder if there's some truth to it.
