Youth Connect

You've been called a grandma because you go to bed early, keep hard candies in your pocketbook and your favorite game is Bingo, but there are other signs that could mean you're a grandma.

1. You despise loud noises

2. Baking is your favorite pastime

3. Aside from reading...

4. And napping, of course

5. You cannot keep up with the trends from this generation

6. You try to feed everyone your food even if they've told you three times that they're full

7. You have the best dance moves.. and your friends agree

8. But, you're not the most graceful person in the world

9. But of course you always look fabulous

10. You can be a bit forgetful at times

11. Vacuuming is considered one of your favorite hobbies

12. You love puzzles.. a lot.

13. You wear glasses but pull them off like a champ

14. You love sporting events

15. Getting your hair done is the highlight of your week

16. You take care of every person with your tender love

Thank goodness for these people. We need more grandmas like this in the world. Their love, grace, and compassion for other people never goes unnoticed and is always appreciated.

Having an old soul is a good thing. This world needs more grandmas telling us that boys are not worth crying over and that more girls need to be classy.

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.
