10 Reasons Why Long Distance Isn't Worth It
Katie Adams

Relationships aren't always easy. And when you throw a couple hundred or thousand miles in between you and your significant other, it may make things more difficult. Here are some reasons you probably have for coming to this conclusion:

1. Maintaining a trustworthy and honest relationship in this day and age is next to impossible.

Loyalty is key.

2. You loved being asked, 'So when are you two going to break up?'

You were always ready to prove them wrong.

3. Who really has time to make phone and Skype calls?


Skype and Face-time were made for this type of thing.

4. If video calling is not a possibility, phone calls and texting would be difficult because you don't know if you'll have enough cell service where you are.

Luckily, in this day and age, you will most likely have some form of communication.

5. You need someone with you at all times to pump you up and give you advice.

They're only a phone call or text away for a much needed ear to listen.

6. Because the goodbye will be too much.

It's not goodbye, it's see you later.

7. Seeing them after a while apart won't feel the same.

It will probably be better.

8. If something were to happen to your significant other, it would impact you too much.

If the relationship is important enough to you, you will be able to make it through whatever life throws at you.

9. You're scared about what the future looks like.

What if there's a fight? Are they your soulmate? How does one deal with distance? Well, you won't know unless you try.

10. You don't believe that distance makes the heart grow fonder.

But it actually does, and you'll realize it soon enough.

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.

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.
