the Nice List

A tribute to warm Yooper culture

To my wonderful partner,

This week, I’d like to thank my phenomenal girlfriend for everything that she does. I must have done something really great in a past life to deserve her. What prompted this shoutout to come right now was her offer to organize my schedule for me next semester, a task I find tedious and formulaic.

I was able to put it out of my mind and focus on my abundance of homework instead. She even ran my degree audit and made a plan for me to graduate on time, without me asking her to do any of this. I know, I’m spoiled.

Selfless behavior is hardly out of character for her. My birthday is this month and she’s been talking it up for weeks (justifiably, as she’s a great gift giver). She’s also a deft hand at cooking and baking, a great pet owner and has a green thumb.

Her compassion for animals and her ability to see the good in anyone is inspiring. If there’s anyone that belongs on the Nice List, it’s certainly her.

Love,

Anonymous
