10 Ways Chacos Are Like Your Best Friend

Chacos: either you love them or you think they are the ugliest shoes on the planet. I absolutely adore my two pairs and wear them basically everywhere. I've wholeheartedly joined the "Chaco Nation," but others are still skeptical. But these shoes are just like your best friend, here's how:

1. They Accept You For Who You Are

They accept you for who you are, big monster feet and all. I have always had big feet. I have worn a size 12 since fifth grade. Do you know how many cute, size 12 shoes were available in the 2000s? NONE. I had to wear ugly men's shoes all the time. At one time in my childhood the only shoes that would fit my feet were Crocs. (You read that right, Crocs.) Good news was there was a very short amount of time at my elementary school that Crocs were actually cool. When I first discovered Chacos, I was elated that I could, for once, have the same pair of shoes as someone with a size 7 foot. Chaco's adjustable straps and extended sizes make them perfect for any sized foot.

2. They Don't Discriminate

They don't care if you're male or female. Chacos don't either. They have the same designs available regardless of gender. Are you a male and want some pink and purple Chacos? You can get 'em. Female, searching for a brown and orange solemate? You've got 'em too.

3. They're Up For Anything

They're up for an adventure, or just chilling. Chacos are such a versatile shoe they can be worn almost anywhere. Hiking, swimming, walking to class or shopping, they can do it all. They're easy to clean so go ahead and get them dirty.

4. They Are Diverse

There are so many different colors of Chacos. Every color of the rainbow. You can have neutrals, bright colors, pastels, patterns, anything you can imagine, Chacos can give you.

5. They Lift You Up

They're always there when you're feeling low, Chacos' footbed adds about two inches in height. Although I don't profit from this feature (I'm already six feet tall), other shorties definitely do. Want to look taller and keep it casual? Chacos are your go-to. Chacos also keep you elevated and away from the ground. That mean when it's raining, your feet don't get wet, go ahead and walk through those puddles.

6. They Can Do Both

They go with casual outfits. Rolled up jeans, skinny jeans, t-shirts and tops. They go with sporty outfits. Norts, tanks and headbands. You can even wear them with sundresses. They go with the flow.

7. They Stick With Us Forever

Just like your best friend, Chacos will always be there. They are made to be durable and last longer than most other sandals. If they do have an issue, you can send them to ReChaco Repairs and get them fixed good as new. We can't forget the lasting gift Chacos leave us, especially in the summer: tan lines. They take almost a whole winter to fade and are one of the best parts of wearing a pair of Chacos.

8. They Support You

These shoes are the most comfortable and supportive shoes I have ever worn. I can wear them all day and my feet don't hurt.

9. They Remind You To Treat Yourself

Chacos show your toes (unless you rock Sockos) So they remind you to keep up with you pedicure, because who wants to see your crusty toes? No one.

10. They Are There Through Every Season

You can wear Chacos in almost every season. Spring, summer, early fall, and if you're brave, winter (especially if you have a mild Oklahoma winter). But even if you can't wear them in all seasons, they're anxiously awaiting the next time they can go on an adventure with you. (And chances are, your tan lines are still there too.)

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.

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.

Top 10 Reasons My School Rocks!

Why I Chose a Small School Over a Big University.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
