As summer approaches, internship season is about to kick off. Internships are a great way to gain experience, form valuable relationships and earn some extra cash. While internships are great, searching for internships can be stressful and competitive. Here are some websites that make the internship search easier:

1. Indeed

Indeed is probably my favorite job search website. This site allows you to type in exactly what you are looking for and which city you want to work in. With Indeed you can be as specific as Social Media Intern or stay broad with a search for a Business Intern. Indeed also keeps your searches on record and updates you when a new posting matching your criteria is posted. Indeed also sends emails with new postings matching your search criteria.

2. LinkedIn

LinkedIn is a great resource for internship hunting. Companies often post their internship openings on LinkedIn, and students can search for openings based on city and keywords. LinkedIn also allows students to view the profiles of people who work for the company they are applying for. LinkedIn allows students to save jobs they are interested in, and often applicants can quickly apply straight from their LinkedIn profile.

3. Internships.com

Internships.com allows students to create a profile and a living resume. Students can search for internships based on field of work and city. Students can bookmark internships and keep track of submitted applications. Internships.com also sends emails when new jobs are posted.

4. Looksharp

With Looksharp, students can create an in-depth profile broadcasting their experience and academic accomplishments. Looksharp allows applicants to search for jobs and internships. The internship postings show whether the internship is paid, when the desired start date is and more.

5. Your school's career website

Most colleges have a career website where companies will post job openings. This is a great resource because the companies posting on the website most likely want to hire students from your school. Set up a profile and frequently check your school's career website for summer internships.

6. Barefoot Student

Barefoot Student is a job board that attracts some really amazing internships. Students can make a free account and browse internships based on industry and city. Not only does Barefoot Student post internship opportunities, but it also broadcasts jobs for recent grads.

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.
