A Letter to My Grandparents
Bright Hub

Dear Mommom, Poppop, Grandma and Grandpa,

There are so many things that I wish I could've said to you before you left this world.

Grandma, I wish I would've been able to meet you and Grandpa. Even though I never got to meet both of you, I want to let you know that I love you with all my heart. Words can't describe how much I would have loved to meet you. Grandpa, same for you about what I said to Grandma. I hope you are both proud of me for who I have become so far. Poppop, words can't describe how much I miss you. I was so little when you left me. I didn't know what was going on. I'm sorry I never got to properly say goodbye to you. I didn't want you to leave me the way you did. I wanted you to live forever with Mommom and see me graduate high school and go to college. I wanted you to be able to see me get my first job and get married and meet your great-grandchildren. I miss and love you so much. Mommom, you always used to joke around with me because I was terrified of going to funerals ever since Poppop had passed. I miss our sleepovers together. We would have so much fun playing games together. We always would play war together and neither of us would win. You taught me how to play most of the games that I know how to play today. You always knew what I liked whether it was toys, games, food, clothes, everything. We always had our routines on the weekends. I'm so glad that you got to see me go to prom and perform in my first dance competition. You got to see me the day I graduated. Everybody that saw me when I walked in the building was congratulating me. You were so happy to see me that day. You were so happy that day that I got my first real job as a CNA. You always would ask if I was still working. I held that job out for 10 months for you. I'm going to school for what i love to do.

I hope you are all proud of the woman I am becoming today. Everything I do is for all of you and my parents. Thank you for giving me the best parents I could ever ask for. You raised them amazing and they raised me amazingly. I don't know what I would do without them. I'm gonna be another year older this year and I hope that this next year and the rest of my life, I make you proud and I hope that you are never ashamed of what I do. I hope you are all dancing and singing everyday in Heaven. Someday I will see you again. The day that I get to see you all, I will be running to you. Say hi to Sascha and all of our family members for me. I just want you all to know that I miss you so much. I love you.

Sincerely,

Your Granddaughter

"I want to thank Google, Wikipedia, and whoever else invented copy and paste. Thank you."

I know every college student has daily thoughts throughout their day. Whether you're walking on campus or attending class, we always have thoughts running a mile a minute through our heads. We may be wondering why we even showed up to class because we'd rather be sleeping, or when the professor announces that we have a test and you have an immediate panic attack.

The Great Christmas Movie Debate

"A Christmas Story" is the star on top of the tree.

The Great Christmas Movie Debate
Mental Floss

One staple of the Christmas season is sitting around the television watching a Christmas movie with family and friends. But of the seemingly hundreds of movies, which one is the star on the tree? Some share stories of Santa to children ("Santa Claus Is Coming to Town"), others want to spread the Christmas joy to adults ("It's a Wonderful Life"), and a select few are made to get laughs ("Elf"). All good movies, but merely ornaments on the Christmas tree of the best movies. What tops the tree is a movie that bridges the gap between these three movies, and makes it a great watch for anyone who chooses to watch it. Enter the timeless Christmas classic, "A Christmas Story." Created in 1983, this movie holds the tradition of capturing both young and old eyes for 24 straight hours on its Christmas Day marathon. It gets the most coverage out of all holiday movies, but the sheer amount of times it's on television does not make it the greatest. Why is it,
then? A Christmas Story does not try to tell the tale of a Christmas miracle or use Christmas magic to move the story. What it does do though is tell the real story of Christmas. It is relatable and brings out the unmatched excitement of children on Christmas in everyone who watches. Every one becomes a child again when they watch "A Christmas Story."

As this semester wraps up, students can’t help but be stressed about finals. After all, our GPAs depends on these grades! What student isn’t worrying about their finals right now? It’s “goodbye social life, hello library” time from now until the end of finals week.

Christmas tree

It's the most wonderful time of the year! Christmas is one of my personal favorite holidays because of the Christmas traditions my family upholds generation after generation. After talking to a few of my friends at college, I realized that a lot of them don't really have "Christmas traditions" in their family, and I want to help change that. Here's a list of Christmas traditions that my family does, and anyone can incorporate into their family as well!

Does anybody know how to study

It’s here; that time of year when college students turn into preschoolers again. We cry for our mothers, eat everything in sight, and whine when we don’t get our way. It’s finals, the dreaded time of the semester when we all realize we should have been paying attention in class instead of literally doing anything else but that. Everyone has to take them, and yes, unfortunately, they are inevitable. But just because they are here and inevitable does not mean they’re peaches and cream and full of rainbows. Surviving them is a must, and the following five phases are a reality for all majors from business to art, nursing to history.
