Personal Picture

2018 had many tears, many heartbreaks, and had many laughs. The start of the year was really good to me and I'm blessed to have been able to have many doors open for me. I got a job as a preschool and when people say that you need to have a job that you enjoy waking up too. I had that, I loved the kids that I took care of and I loved getting to know them and their little personalities. Then, I got accepted to my dream school and had to let go of my job and that was heartbreaking.

During this time, I lost my puppy of only a year but, I'm just blessed to have been able to spend a year with my little cuddle buddy. Now let's fast-forward a couple of months, I decided to rush and found my home in Delta Zeta. I have made so many memories so far and now I have many friends that will be my friends for a lifetime. I'm beyond thankful that I decided to get out of my comfort zone and join this amazing friendship.

This last year has had many life lessons and moments that I will cherish forever. I have gained some amazing siblings that I am beyond blessed to have, I have met some amazing people that I can always count on, and I have gone through some hard times but, I'm so thankful that my family has been with me every step of the way.

Jesus opens doors and closes them in his time and he also gives some of his hardest battles to his strongest soldiers. I have been taken through battle and battle but, I'm excited to see the outcome of them. I know that in 2019 that I may have many battles, heartbreaks, I may shed many tears, and I know I will make many memories. I'm blessed to have made it through another year and I'm excited to see what 2019 has in store.

So for 2018... Thank You, Next.

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.
