https://www.pexels.com/photo/heart-shaped-red-neon-signage-887349/

As people get older and experience life more, the tendency to put other people like friends, family, etc. before ourselves happens more.

This leads many people to have poor self-health not only physical but also mental because all of our energy is going to other people. We need to remember that the number one priority in our lives is ourselves because if we're not happy or our best selves how are we going to give that to other people. So down below is a list of ten ways people can practice positivity and self-love in their life.

We all need this, myself included because things can become so negative and we put ourselves down a lot. With this, I hope it helps to remind all of you that you are wonderful and loved and deserve nothing but love and happiness.

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.

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.
