10 Times Ellen DeGeneres Cracked Herself Up

Anyone who has watched her show knows that Ellen DeGeneres is unparalleled in humor, generosity and overall positivity. It is no surprise that she is so popular because she makes people feel good about themselves for 60 straight minutes. She makes millions of people laugh every day--from her pranks on celebrities to her quick-witted jokes, it’s impossible not to smile when watching her. Here are some of the (many) times she couldn’t handle her own jokes and laughed hysterically until tears started streaming down her face.

1. Ellen tries to put gloves on in 20 seconds, but things don't go quite according to plan.

2. A young magician has Ellen laughing so hard that she tears up with his "dumbfounding" magic tricks.

3. Ellen tries to keep it together as she gives tips for Thanksgiving table seating.

4. During her 12 Days of Giveaways, one of Ellen's elves had a bit of trouble rolling out a TV.

5. When Ellen had Sofia Vergara on her show, they decided they would give Sofia a makeover...let's just say things took a turn for the hilarious.

6. Ellen decided to surprise Powerball ticket holders with a chance to win a trip to one of her 12 Days of Giveaways.

7. When Ellen sends an audience member undercover as a Starbucks drive-thru employee, one customer's responses in particular have Ellen cracking up.

8. Ellen decides that it's time for Andy Zenor, one of her producers, to get a flu shot on her show.

9. A Starbucks employee agreed to wear an earpiece and repeat everything Ellen said...well, everything she thought Ellen said.

10. Ellen's game 'Know or Go' proves that people will come up with the funniest wrong answers when facing their fear of heights.

In the words of Ellen, be kind to one another!

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.

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.
