It's an experience.

College laundry rooms, aren't they a grand ole time. Sometimes this weekly trip down the hall is way more than I bargained for. Let's just say you're bound to meet some pretty interesting personalities while you're in there.

The Awkward Conversationalist

Gotta love those insanely awkward encounters when you're both just uncomfortably staring at each other. This usually turns into the basic "Nice weather we're having." AWKWARD.

The Person That Tells You Their Life Story

Five minutes turns into 10 minutes which turns into two hours. As much as I want to hear about the exam you just failed, your cat that ran away, and your chicken recipe, I have a life.

The Person Who Doesn't Acknowledge Your Presence

It's cool!

Extreme Laundry Rage

You'll learn to always keep a timer on because there's always that one guy who will literally throw out your laundry if you keep it in over the time.

The Extreme Washer

Huge shoutout to the people who take up all the machines for their massive laundry loads!

The Newbie

Another day, another confused soul who's doing laundry for the first time. You never really know whether to help them or just watch them struggle.

The Pro

I'm sorry, but when did laundry become a competitive sport?

The Fashionista

You really just wish you could somehow teleport this person's clothes into your washing machine

That One Guy That Never Leaves

He's there when you arrive. He's there when you leave. You start to wonder if sitting on the floor of the laundry room is as fun as those make it out to be.

The Familiar Face

That person you always see, but still just don't know their name

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.
