Christmas break rocks, no doubt about it. Nothing says fun like relaxing and hanging out with family and old friends; however, 99 percent of the time, you leave your dorm room to go home and therefore leave your roommate. In many cases, this person is or has become your absolute best friend. What are you going to do without them for three to four weeks? The world may never know. The weeks (or maybe months) leading up to Christmas breaks are full of Christmas talk and shenanigans, and you know your roomie has been there for it all -- when break rolls around, the nonstop texting or Snapchatting begins. Here are 19 things you and your roommate have said to each other as Christmas break approaches:

1. "What do you want for Christmas this year?"

Typically answered with "a boyfriend or a 4.0."

2. "When is it socially acceptable to decorate for Christmas?"

3. "Which one of us is getting the tree?"

4. "I got you a stocking and I've already put some stuff in it."

No, most of it is NOT appropriate.

5. "I called your mom for Christmas ideas."

6. "I'm using Christmas money to buy you more Christmas gifts."

7. "To Roomie, Love *insert name here*."

8. "Do you think we'll get in trouble if we light a pine-scented candle?"

9. "Who cares, RA's are a bunch of Scrooges if they get mad about Christmas-scented candles."

10. "Do I HAVE to get you a gift? Isn't living with me enough of a present?"

"My presence is a present" -- Kanye West

11. "When are you leaving for Christmas break?"

12. "Please don't leave me for Christmas break."

*leaves anyway for Christmas break*

13. "Hey, I miss you."

14. "Maybe Santa will bring you for Christmas."

15. "When're you coming back from break? I miss you."

16. "Okay, so what trouble are we getting in for New Year's Eve?"

17. "I totally have to see you for NYE. No excuses."

18. "Do we HAVE to take down the Christmas decorations?"

19. "When is it socially acceptable to decorate for Christmas?"

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.
