Girls are amazing creatures. Somehow they're able to get up every morning, put on a full face of makeup, do their hair, throw on a perfectly constructed outfit and go about their day without so much as their mascara running. Unfortunately, not all of us females are on the same wavelength when it comes to be flawless. For my perfectly imperfect ladies, here are 10 things you'll understand if you're bad at being a girl:

*Disclaimer: this article is supposed to resonate with girls who don't feel as put together as their female counterparts. It is in no way meant to insinuate that girls are shallow or that the only thing a girl has to offer society is her looks.*

1. Your hair and makeup is never done.

Whether it's because you woke up 10 minutes before class or because you simply lacked the will to try, you somehow always end up fresh faced and in a ponytail.

2. You don't really understand how to do makeup for that matter.

You see perfectly contoured faces and flawless winged eyeliner everywhere you go, but no matter how many YouTube tutorials you watch you just can't get the hang of it. Also, you don't want to drop the hundreds of dollars on every type of makeup needed to create the perfect look. (I mean why do I need foundation AND concealer? Honestly.)

3. You never have your outfits picked out.

Leggings and a sweatshirt are your best friends.

4. When you do decide to dress up and spend time on your hair and makeup, you blow everyone's minds.

On the rare occasions that you decide to go from a potato to a low key hottie, you get enough attention and compliments to get you through the year. At least you know you can be hot if you want to.

5. You barely own any shoes.

All your girlfriends are trying to decide which pair of heels best matches their outfit for the party you're headed out to, but you're already ready to go because you only have one pair.

6. Your friends are always begging you to let them do your hair and makeup.

Because you could be so pretty if you just let them contour your face and wrestle your hair into some sort of updo.

7. You hate trying on clothes.

Seriously, you'd rather buy something, bring it home and try it on, and then return it than take the time to try it on in the store.

8. Your nails are never done.

Your fingernail and toenail polish always goes by the wayside.

9. You buy your underwear from Target instead of Victoria's Secret.

Because it's cheaper and let's face it, guys aren't going to know the difference anyway.

10. Your bra and underwear never matches ... like ever.

No excuse for this, just bad planning.

Maybe one day we'll get ourselves together but for now let's just enjoy our sweatpants.

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.
