Who doesn't like to laugh? I mean, seriously, it's such a good feeling that you can't get any other way. There's an old Yiddish proverb that says, "What soap is to the body, laughter is to the soul," and I can't help but connect with what that is conveying. Laughter has the ability to essentially just wash away negative energy the same way soap cleans physical dirt.

What makes me laugh? It’s really hard to define what is “funny” simply because people have such a different idea of what they deem to be “funny.” But for me, personally, one thing that almost always brings a smile to my face are webcomics. Just those quick and little three- or four-panel pieces. It probably has something to do with reading the funnies in the newspaper growing up. My grandma would always save those pages for me. Sundays were always the best as they were presented in color!

Webcomics are just the next generation of newspaper comics, which is why I want to share with you my 11 favorite webcomic series!

10. "PvP" by Scott Kurtz & Dylan Meconis.

"PvP" is comic that features a lot of 'nerd humor' such as video games, RPGs, technology jokes, relationship humor, and mocking of the generation gaps between the different characters in the comic.

9. "Diesel Sweeties" by Richard Stevens III.

Probably my favorite part of "Diesel Sweeties" is the art style Stevens uses. The comic has multiple returning characters, both human and robotic, that experience very real situations, but in a cartoonish way .

8. "Awkward Zombie" by Katie Tiedrich.

What a surprise, another video game-based comic! "Awkward Zombies" portrays various different kinds of video games throughout its series, which is something that I really appreciate and keeps things always exciting!

7. "Questionable Content" by Jeph Jacques.

"QC" is a slice of life comic series with stories ranging across lots of different genres such as romantic melodrama, situational comedy, and sexual humor, while considering questions of relationships, sexuality, dealing with emotional trauma, and, as of late, artificial intelligence and futurism.

6. "JL8" by Yale Stewert.

"JL8" has a simple and cute premise as it follows the life of Justice League charterers at the age eight years old. Although obviously not canon in the DC universe, it's fun to imagine how they acted at that age.

5. "Penny Arcade" by Jerry Holkins & Mike Krahulik.

I've talked about "Penny Arcade" briefly before, so of course it's going to make it's way onto my list of amazing webcomics. This isn't the first comic to feature video games, but it's one of the most popular and definitively one to check out if you're into video games and comics!

4. "Saturday Morning Breakfast Cereal" by Zach Weinersmith.

"SMBC" is a comic that doesn't really have a set area as it touches on atheism, God, superheroes, romance, dating, science, research, parenting and the meaning of life. The comic comes out daily and its format can very just as much as what it's talking about.

3. "xkcd" by Randall Munroe.

I've heard people say multiple times that there is an "xkcd" comic for every situation, and the more I read them, the more I agree with that statement. I mean, if you have ever questioned if you could be sad for a machine, just read this comic.

2. "Extra Fabulous Comics," Written By Zach.

There is just something that I love about "EFB" that can't easily be described. Although what I do know is that the characters' eyes are hilarious in themselves. As the series goes on, I swear their eyes grow further apart...

1. "Cyanide & Happiness" by Kris Wilson, Rob DenBleyker, Dave McElfatrick, And (Formally) Matt Melvin.

"C&H" is really what got me started in webcomics. They're edgy, dark, full of dry humor, and sometimes all too real. Each of the authors have their own take on the characters, even though they all share the same simple shape of a body, head, and stick arms/legs.

And I just want to reiterate what I said earlier that not everyone finds everything funny. Sometimes these don’t make me audibly lol. But these do normally make me give a a little "hmph" or even a sensible chuickle, which is sometimes just enough to lift a sorrow mood.

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.
