Ahh yes, the beautiful world of Facebook.

You love it, you hate it, but you still scroll through it as a last resort every night after you’ve checked all your other favorite social media apps (Instagram, I see you). I know that for me, I have about a million different thoughts that go through my head when I’m wandering around good ol' Facebook. Some are nice, some are… well, not as nice, and some just leave me a bit speechless.

Regardless, I’ll probably continue stalking Facebook when it’s 2 a.m. and I’m bored, because OF COURSE I WANT TO WATCH A VIDEO OF A CUTE PUPPY ROLLING DOWN A HILL.

So, lets begin.

1. Ah, they finally got engaged. That’s cute.

2. Stop posting about your relationship issues.

We get it, Chad is a grade A jerk.

3. She got an internship? But she’s younger than me? Great.

Guess I should start applying myself or something.

4. Oh my gosh that looks so good. I’ll go ahead and save that video for later and make it!

(I would never make it.)

5. Oh, someone else is getting married? I mean, okay. I’m happy for them. I’m sure I’ll find someone too, at some point.


6. Hey look! My mom tagged me in a post with an inspirational quote. Thanks, mom.

7. Political opinions? YES. MY FAVORITE. YOU ARE DEFINITELY GOING TO CHANGE MY MIND.

8. They’re having a baby? Didn’t they just get married? I can’t even get a match on Tinder. Cool.

9. Wow, this DIY video is so smart. I totally could’ve thought of that. I’ll go ahead and save that video too. I’ll TOTALLY use it.

(Again, I never use it.)

10. Oh cool. My sister tagged me in a photo from 2011. Why did I think I needed that much eyeliner? And bangs? Thanks for reminding me about that, sis.

11. Another engagement? Awesome. Lovely. Cool. I’m going to live alone at this point.

12. OH MY GOSH, THE OL’ RAZZLE DAZZLE. YES.

13. Stop talking. You should not be allowed to have Facebook. Please. For the love of everything good.

14. Another person has made a page for their photography? That’s only like the 600th person on my feed who has now taken up that hobby ~professionally~.

15. ANOTHER POST? Thanks mom. That’s about the 5th one you’ve tagged me in today.

I get it. If they can’t handle me at my worst, then they TOTALLY don’t deserve me at my best.

16. Memes. Memes. Memes. Memes.

17. More babies on the way. Lovely.

18. Is that cat playing in a box? OH MY GOSH. THAT’S SO CUTE.

I’M NOT CRYING, YOU’RE CRYING.

19. Ahh, another relationship is now Facebook official. S’cute.

Annnnnd I’m still single.

20. Omg prime rib with garlic herb butter? Yep. Saving that video.

Gosh, I’m going to be a cooking genius. Thanks, Facebook.

21. Hmm… I should probably stalk my ex from high school now.

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.
