Are you truly from Wisconsin if you don't back the Pack? The Packers season this year may not have gone the way we wanted it to, but you still gotta love them. Packer fans are everywhere actually, but really, you can't go anywhere in Wisconsin without seeing some type of Packer decoration.

I love that about us here in Wisconsin, our love for sports, especially the love for the Green and Gold. Here are 12 reasons why you should love them too.

1. The GOAT

Aaron Rodgers. The quarterback God himself. How can you not love him? Just look at him!

2. "La La La La Lambeau!"

Lambeau Field was ranked as the #1 stadium to visit for, "The Ultimate Football Road Trip." It truly is a historic NFL gem.

3. The NFC North rivalry

Da Bears still suck... as well as the Vikings and the Lions.

4. The best fans in the league

Yes, us Packers fans will sit through anything to watch our boys play. Even during a blizzard or -35 degree weather.

5. The famous Lambeau Leap

We started this trend. Don't even try to fight it.

6. The Hail Marys

No one can do it better than A-Rod.

7. The Cheesehead

Many people make fun of it, but in all honesty, we are Wisconsin's NFL team and everyone knows which team we're rooting for then.

8. You can own the Packers!

Green Bay is a non-profit team, they're actually the only non-profit professional sports team in the world. So no greedy rich owners here.

9. Lombardi Trophy = Named after coach

Vince Lombardi was the Packers beloved coach from the years of 1959-1967 and the Superbowl trophy happens to be named after him. He also lead them to two Superbowl wins!

10. Speaking of Superbowl's, we've won four of them

The 1st, 2nd, 31st and 45th Superbowl to be exact. Green Bay isn't called Titletown for nothing.

11. The commercials

If you want a good laugh, watch Aaron or Clay take the screen.

12. They're the Green Bay Freakin' Packers!

You can't deny that the Packers aren't a good team and with the historic atmosphere of Lambeau Field and the most loyal fans around, how can you not love them

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.
