Summertime is here and everyone is tan. Well, everyone except pale girls who are pale all year round. Here are 11 more struggles that all pale girls seem to face.

1. You can never find your shade of makeup.

Makeup brands will name shades things like Snow, Alabaster and Siberia, and they will still be too dark for you.

2. You can never hide your embarrassment.


The moment your cheeks start flushing, you know you can't hide.

3. Photography with flash or in direct sunlight makes you look like a ghost.

Taking a photo without you looking like a hovering pair of eyes requires skill.

4. The sun is your worst enemy.


Somehow being outside for 15 minutes leaves you looking like a lobster or tomato.

5. And sunscreen is your best friend.

You own too many bottles of sunscreen to count, and they all have at least SPF 100.

6. Sunscreen is never just for summer!

Just because it's winter, doesn't mean the sun stops shining.

7. All your friends have tan lines, but you have burn lines.

You start out summer with high hopes for yourself, but those all go to waste after the first pool day of the summer.

8. The color black washes you out.

Unless you're trying to look more like a vampire than you already do, it's best to stay away from black clothing.

9. People are always comparing the color of their skin to yours.

Yes, I will always be paler than you.

10. Your veins are always very visible.

At least the right vein is always found on the first try when you're getting blood drawn.

11. Nude is never nude.


Nude heels and tights are always at least five shades too dark for you.

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.
