Walking to class is something some people may find as easy as 1-2-3. However, if you’re an anxiety-ridden girl who overanalyzes anything and everything (speaking for a friend obviously), the walk to class is anything BUT simple. With all the factors taken into account- weather, who you’ll run into, what you look like, what you did last night (hangovers? Never heard of them)- it’s no wonder that people like me wish they'd speed up the teleportation discovery. For those of you who don’t know what I’m talking about, here are a few of the cringiest moments most have experienced far too many times:

1. The “I wasn’t waving at you I was fixing my hair”

This classic move of pure humiliation is definitely up there in my favorites. Ya know when you walk by someone you know and you think they see you so you wave and they just keep walking past you with absolutely negative recognition of your existence so you just play it off by pretending to fix your hair? Yeah, that’s the one. C-R-I-N-G-E.

2. The “I wasn’t waving at you I was fixing my hair” on steroids

Thought number 1 was bad? How about when you wave at someone YOU THOUGHT you knew, but turns out you were highly mistaken. Nope, not the person you thought they were, not at all. They don’t know you, you don’t know them, and you’re left questioning how your parents were capable of producing such a cringe-worthy human.

3. Left, right, left, right

It’s 1pm, you’re full-blown mom-powerwalking to class, when BOOM there they are: A beautiful group of athletes chilling out, maxing, relaxing all cool and suddenly you find yourself forgetting how to walk. You just gotta tell yourself “left, right, left, right” until you remember how the whole legs moving thing works.

4. Playlist panic

I do this every single day. Every. Single. Day. Am I Crazy? No. Do I maybe have OCD? I mean you’re not wrong. Anyways, the playlist panic refers to that moment you pop your headphones in, hit play, start bumping, until you think “wait, am I sure I plugged my headphones in?” See, as I’m writing this I just realized I probably sound insane because how would you be able to hear the music through the headphones if they weren’t plugged in… But hey, we all have our thing alright?

5. Save, no story

It’s a glorious day, the wind is dramatically wafting your hair about, and you start to think “honestly, I probably look really good right now”. You whip out the ol' cellular device, open up Snapchat, and oh HONEY you do not look good. Hair is flying every which way, eyes look puffy as hell, today is just not your day. It’s okay, we’ve all been there. Just maybe, you know, don’t post that on your snap story? And maybe, you know, delete it?

Now that you know what you’re in for, you’re ready to take on the challenge and walk to class like a champ! Or, if you’re like me, you will continue to do these things on nearly a daily basis. Good luck out there guys. It’s a cruel, cruel world.

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.
