We have survived finals season, packed our rooms, said goodbye to friends, and are finally back home. We have been going non-stop and can finally sit down and do nothing!

Upon returning home, the only thing we can think about is sitting on the couch or laying in bed and doing nothing but watching Netflix or sleeping. We need to recharge after the craziness of the end of the year.

Once we recharge after arriving home though, we must adjust back to life at home. We wait for all our friends to return home and to start summer jobs.

Here are four easy and fun things we can all do after returning home from college for the summer.

1. Organize

Brunch is the perfect meal to share with your friends and to catch up about everyone’s semester. Go all out for this brunch: create cute invitations, decorate the table, research new brunch recipes!

3. Road trip

Take an impromptu road trip with your friends one day. Doesn’t matter where you go or how far you go, just explore somewhere new!

4. Continue to do nothing

This sounds silly but enjoy not having any responsibilities and just relax. You’ve worked hard all semester and now is your time to step back from everything. Enjoy the fun and excitement of the summer with your friends and family.

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.
