Election years always prove to be interesting. Blue states and red states. Liberals and conservatives. Debates here and debates there. Controversy after controversy. With Super Tuesday arriving, things are becoming especially heated. Everyone is advocating for their favorite candidate and you pretty much try to avoid Facebook at all costs. Presidential races can be overwhelming when no one seems to agree. Speculations are circling as to who each candidate would select as their running mate. But, I know there is one dynamic duo we would all like to see run for president.

1. They answer the hard-hitting questions.

These are the things America needs to know.

2. They're hip, making them relatable to young voters.


Through Grammy-worthy musical productions, Michael and Dwight can draw young voters out to the polls.

3. The sky is their limit.

They're ambitious.

4. They're both Olympic medalists.


OK, OK...they're "Office Olympics" medalists. Close enough right?

5. They're up front with their past.


Sometimes he'll sing in the shower or spend too much time volunteering.

6. They have state-of-the-art military tactics they plan to implement.


Dwight is the first to let you know he has a black belt in karate (and he knows how to use it).

7. They can communicate without using words.


Communication is key, and these two know exactly how to do that. Using words, or not.

8. They recover from opposition well.

They're rubber and you're glue. Whatever you say bounces off them and back to you.

9. They have a clear stance on economic issues.


Like the Notorious B.I.G., Michael and Dwight prescribe to the philosophy of "mo' money, mo' problems."

10. And healthcare.


There is no healthcare in the wild.

11. They think about the consequences of their actions.


It's simple, really.

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.
