10 Things to Inspire You This Semester

Sometimes we all need a little motivation, a little inspiration, a little strength, hope, comfort, and most importantly, love.

10 Things to Inspire You This Semester

Sometimes, you just feel like everything is going wrong. Literally. Nothing is going right. And sometimes you just need a little pick me up. I know I do, anyways.

1. Jeremiah 29:11

This Bible verse is AWESOME. It's pretty comforting to know that God has a plan for you and that in the end everything will work out.

2. Psalm 23

If you ever feel alone or afraid or worried, just remember one thing. Remember Psalm 23. God will always be with you no matter what situation and he will protect you from everything.

3. Psalm 138


Yep, that's right. When you are stressing out over a final or you just feel weak and worthless, look to God for strength. Ask for help and you'll get it from God.

4. Isaiah 40

Even Cinderella said, "Have courage and be kind". If you have hope in the Lord and faith, he will always guide you and help you through everything.

5. Joshua 1:9

If you have faith and love God, you will never be alone. Ever. Not even when you make what you think is the biggest mistake of your life. Not when you fail a test, not when you sleep through class. He has plans for you. If God wants something to happen, he will make it happen. Sometimes, it just takes a little faith and a different perspective.

6. Isaiah 58:9

Sometimes, things do not exactly go as you intended. In fact, sometimes they are completely the opposite of your plans. It's okay, though. It happens. Sometimes you feel like you did everything wrong and that you're completely alone. Just remember that you are not alone. Remember that you are human and people make mistakes. Remember that God will always be there to pick you up when you fall.

7. Peter 5:10

Once you've hit rock bottom, sometimes it seems like you'll never be able to resurface or recover. It is in those times that you have to have faith and trust in God. He will help you to recover and resurface. And eventually, everything will be okay again.

8. Philippians 4:7

There is no need for you to worry or be afraid. You know why? Because being afraid and worrying are a waste of time. Instead, just say a prayer or two. God will always protect your heart and guide you on the path that he intends.

9. John 16:33

If you're ever stressed out, just remember that God has overcome the world. He has done amazing great things. That test next week? It's NOTHING compared to the miracles that God has performed. And you have nothing to worry about because he'll be by your side for everything.

And of course, how could we forget,

10. John3:16

Did I even need an artsy picture for this one? Probably not. Most people, Christian or not, have heard of John 3:16. "For God so loved the world, that he gave his one and only son that whoever believes in him shall not perish, but have eternal life". If all else fails, just remember this one. God loves us so much that he gave up his one and only son, his only child. Someone out there (God) loves you.

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.
