10 Reasons California Sucks
We Heart It

You've heard it time and time again. That dreaded, repetitive story told by native Californians on all the ways their state sucks. The consistent complaining that ensues when the words "Cali, "California," "West Coast" or "Golden State" are muttered. Here's the 10 complaints every Californian mentions way too often.

1. You can drive from the top of California to the bottom without ever losing sight of the beach.

Don't you hate that? Me too.

2. There are mountains everywhere you look.

That's the worst. Is it too much to ask for to have industrial buildings to look at while I drive?

3. There are two famous cities in one state?

These poor people. Good shopping, good food, and amazing views? The travesty.

4. The state is filled with surfers and skaters.

Um, Ew.

5. The people there, are like mostly welcoming of all people.

Gross, am I right? Human rights? No thank you!

6. California's musicians are sub par at best.

I think we can all agree that G-Eazy, Dr. Dre, Kendrick Lamar, Guns and Roses and Snoop Dogg are all very average performers.

7. The music festivals are the worst in the country.

Coachella, Outside Lands, Stagecoach—all major disappointments.

8. A lot of the restaurants are turning healthy?

Who wants organic, chemical free and non genetically modified food? Sounds pretty disgusting if you ask me. Not to mention it's just wrong.

9. The weather is 75 degrees most of the year.

Naturally golden skin and no snow days. That sounds like somewhere I don't want to be.

10. The sports teams are all pretty good.

Winning just takes so much effort, I don't have the time to invest in that nonsense.

In case you didn't catch my drift, California is pretty rad. This whole article was a lie. There is no place better than California, we have everything.

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.
