If you have been in a yoga class, you must know what I am talking about...


6:55 am

"Great, I made it here on time. I was super stressed that I was going to be late. Changed my outfit 10 times. Oh look, I like her leggings... Maybe they sell them on Amazon."


7:00 am

"Okay my mat is rolled out, I have those block-things. Perfect! I am ready to be fit and active and have a cute butt!"


7:05 am

"Instructor is in the front of the room, everyone looks way too serious to be in a yoga class, I thought we were meant to be relaxed?"


7:10 am

"Okay class is going well, but this woman next to me looks super official. Hold on... Is that an Om tattoo? Oh yeah, she's a professional yogi. Let me follow her."


7:15 am

"Wow, that warrior 2 hurts a little bit! Can we go back into child's pose? That one is my favorite."


7:20 am

"Okay, okay. I'm probably half way done by now. Maybe I'll get a cupcake after this. No, you're doing yoga right now, think healthy... Maybe a chocolate muffin. Yeahhhhh, double chocolate muffin."


7:25 am

"Sorry... WHAT do you want me to do with my legs? No, no that will not be happening."


7:30 am

"Damn I am working up a sweat right now! Professional Om Yogi Lady next to me is sweating like a pig, I'm just getting started... I'm totally not doing this right. I have been thinking of food."


7:35 am

"Okay, sweating now. Totally sweating now. What do you mean this isn't hot yoga? Hot yoga must really suck."


7:40 am

"I wonder what my ass looks like in this leggings. They said they were sculpting. I hope I don't have sweat running down my back."


7:45 am

"Oh yes, we are winding down... time for some relaxation, my favorite. No, sorry I have stopped listening this is my nap time. I did a lot earlier."


7:50 am

"Lying down is so much better than those straining positions I had to do earlier. Thank you, Master Yogi for this moment."


7:55 am

"Wow, that was a great yoga session. Namaste everybody! I will definitely be back soon! But that chocolate muffin though..."

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.

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.
