I think us seniors can easily relate.

If you're like me and can see the obvious differences between freshman and seniors, here are seven things that might give you a laugh:

1. Getting out of bed.

Freshman: Wakes up 2 hours before class, does their makeup, picks out a cute outfit.

Senior: Wakes up 30 minutes before class and throws on some gym shorts that probably need to be washed.

2. Attitude on the first day of school.

Freshman: "I can't wait to see who's in my classes and to meet my professors!:

Senior: "I wish it was still summer."

3. School supplies.

Freshman: Pencils, pens, dry erase markers, post it notes, six notebooks, four binders, and a partridge in a pair tree.

Senior: iPhone and a charger.

4. Tiredness.

Freshman: Awake, ready to party, stays up until 2a.m. and wakes up for their 8a.m.

Senior: Goes to bed at 9p.m. and wakes up at noon.

5. Alcohol intake.

Freshman: Three to four beers, feeling pretty good.

Senior: Five shots of something extra strong and feeling nothing.

6. Listening to your professor.

Freshman: "Wow, this is really cool and interesting."

Senior: "What they hell are they talking about?"

7. Forgetting about an assignment.

Freshman: "Oh my gosh, I'm going to fail."

Senior: "Oh well, better luck next time."

8. Parking.

Freshman: Parks in the areas their parking pass permits them to.

Senior: Parks in illegal spots and gets at least one parking ticket a week.

9. Eating.

Freshman: "Let's get something from the dining hall."

Senior: "I'd rather starve than eat anything from the dining hall."

10. Seeing a dog on campus.

Freshman: Freaks out and cries tears of joy.

Senior: Freaks out and cries tears of joy.

I hope you all can relate the way I can!

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.
