Does just thinking about staying out all night partying exhaust you? Do you often catch yourself looking up text abbreviations and terms on Urban Dictionary? Do you ever daydream of curling up in bed with a good book? If you said yes to any of these, chances are you're a 20-something grandma. But in case you're not convinced, the following are some signs that your "golden years" came a just little bit early:

1. You hate dressing up.

Which is why your closet mostly consists of oversized sweaters, sweat pants and comfy shoes.

2. Your wild Friday nights usually involve being curled up on the couch watching Netflix.

To you "Netflix and chill" literally means Netflix and chill.

3. You love the idea of going out, but clubs just aren't your scene.

Why is the music SO loud?

4. Which is why you usually sneak out early.

In and out in less than an hour? Challenge accepted.

5. But that doesn't mean you don't know how to have a good time.

You're always up for a killer game of Yahtzee.

6. You're not ashamed of your "old lady" hobbies.

Your friends aren't allowed to make fun of you since they love the hats and scarves you knitted for them.

7. Or your addition to coffee and tea.

Nothing beats a good cup of tea.

8. You can be a bit forgetful at times...

Thank God the car keys have a beeper.

9. And you're not always up to date with the latest slang.

You lit what on fleek?

10. Or technology...

"I'm also on the Instagram."

11. You always make sure everyone has enough to eat.

You love to whip up snacks in the kitchen for your crew.

12. And you give the absolute best birthday and Christmas gifts.

You are the queen of gift-giving.

13. You sometimes complain about "kids these days" -- even though they're the same age as you.

You just don't understand them.

14. You're interested in serious relationships.

You're not against the hookup culture; it just isn't your thing.

15. You have an old soul approach to life.

The great thing about being a 20-something grandma is having wisdom beyond your years.

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.
